Read this excerpt from "a student's guide to global climate change."
you probably know someone with asthma, or maybe you have this condition yourself. certain kinds of air pollutants, like ozone, can make asthma and other lung conditions worse. ozone found high in the atmosphere is called "good ozone" because it protects life on earth from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. ozone can also be found close to the surface of the earth, where it is considered “bad ozone” because it's the main ingredient of smog and is harmful for people to breathe. bad ozone is created from pollutants that go through chemical reactions in the atmosphere. climate change is likely to increase the amount of bad ozone in the air because more ozone is created when the temperature is warm.
which best states the author’s purpose in writing the paragraph?
to compare and contrast “good” and “bad” ozone layers
to inform readers about the negative effects of air pollution on life
to increase awareness of asthma and other lung conditions
to list the steps involved in creating a “bad” layer of ozone

Read the excerpt from "a defence of poetry.” poetry thus makes immortal all that is best and most beautiful in the world; it arrests the vanishing apparitions which haunt the interlunations of life, and veiling them, or in language or in form, sends them forth among mankind, bearing sweet news of kindred joy to those with whom their sisters abide—abide, because there is no portal of expression from the caverns of the spirit which they inhabit into the universe of things. poetry redeems from decay the visitations of the divinity in man. which details from the excerpt provide more information about shelley’s idea that poetry "makes immortal all that is best and most beautiful in the world”? check all that apply. arrests the vanishing apparitions which haunt the interlunations of life sends them forth among mankind, bearing sweet news to those with whom their sisters abide no portal of expression from the caverns of the spirit redeems from decay the visitations of the divinity in man
