Which poem uses words that rhyme?
O 1. The baseball bounced down the block.
I tried to fetch it but my friend stopped me to talk.
As I watched the ball roll away and disappear,
I knew I'd have to buy another ball for next year.
2. The tree stands tall like a statue.
The leaves make music as they move.
The branches wave hello in the wind.
The trunk is strong and watches over us.
3. I love all kinds of ice cream.
Chocolate chip is chewy,
Strawberry is sweet and sticky,
Pass the scoop, please!
4. There are many jobs I'd like to have.
I can drive a police car and turn on the siren WOO-OOH WOO-AAH.
I can be a singer and wow the crowd DO RE ME FA SO LA TI DO!
I can be anyone I want to be!

Read this passage: many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes. but plastic is not very strong. it must be fused with glass or steel for strength. it is also not very durable. even the strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. the biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not decompose. while plastic can be recycled, doing so is tedious and difficult. while it may be more expensive and difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger building material with far greater tensile strength. it conducts electricity because it is metal. best of all, aluminum is very easy to recycle. even if it is thrown away, it decomposes much more quickly than most manufacturing materials. how does the compare-and-contrast organizational pattern of the passage support the author's purpose? a. the passage gradually leads up to the point about decomposition to inform the reader about the importance of recycling plastics. b. the passage lists the advantages and disadvantages of each material to make a case for the use of plastic and not aluminum in containers. c. the passage begins with a description of plastic's problems in order to call attention to the good qualities of aluminum. d. the passage shows the superiority of aluminum in order to make a case for the production of stronger plastics.
