Which of these passages would most likely be part of an expository text? passage 1 what makes weather? earth's temperature is partly responsible. water vapor in the air moves from one place to another depending on temperature. warm air rises, and cold air sinks. as the warm air around the equator rises, it moves toward the poles and is cooled. the cold air around the poles also moves toward the equator. while this is happening, earth is spinning. the spin of the planet is called its rotation. the rotation of earth is also important to weather. as earth spins, the sun can warm only part of it at any one time. the other part faces away from the sun. it is cooler. as a result, the rotation of earth creates constantly changing temperatures.

passage 2 my plan is to refurbish cars and then turn around and sell them to people. there are a million cars that are dumped at wreckage lots, and i can use the money i get from my summer job to buy a car and the parts i need for it. junkyards are a gold mine for parts, and they are cheap there. i can spend my free time putting the cars back together, and then i can sell the car to someone for a lot more than it cost me to fix it. i first learned how to work on cars years ago with training from my uncle. he was an expert mechanic on his farm back in the 1930s. learning from him was one of the most beneficial and interesting experiences i had while living in california.

passage 4 until this moment, i had looked upon the valley as my grave. i had seen no possibility of getting out of it alive. but now i found courage and began to plan my escape. first, i picked up all the large diamonds i could find and stored them in my leather bag. this i tied securely to my belt. i then chose the piece of meat that seemed best for my purpose. with my turban i tied meat firmly to my back. this done, i laid face down and awaited the coming of the eagles. i soon heard the flapping of their mighty wings above me. then i had the joy of feeling one of them seize my piece of meat, and me with it. we rose slowly toward its nest, into which it dropped me. (from one thousand and one nights)

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.

[1] nothing that comes from the desert expresses its extremes better than the unhappy growth of the tree yuccas. tormented, thin forests of it stalk drearily in the high mesas, particularly in that triangular slip that fans out eastward from the meeting of the sierras and coastwise hills. the yucca bristles with bayonet-pointed leaves, dull green, growing shaggy with age like an old [5] man's tangled gray beard, tipped with panicles of foul, greenish blooms. after its death, which is slow, the ghostly hollow network of its woody skeleton, with hardly power to rot, makes even the moonlight fearful. but it isn't always this way. before the yucca has come to flower, while yet its bloom is a luxurious, creamy, cone-shaped bud of the size of a small cabbage, full of sugary sap. the indians twist it deftly out of its fence of daggers and roast the prize for their [10] own delectation why does the author use the words "bayonet-pointed" (line 4) and "fence of daggers" (line 9) to describe the leaves of the yucca tree? . to create an image of the sharp edges of the plant to emphasize how beautiful the plant's leaves are to explain when and where the plant grows to show how afraid the author is of the plant
