ride Ghost Wind?

Is Paul's motivation intrinsic or extrinsic?

I looked down at Mitchell and stopped, knowing that

despite our understanding, he was itching for a fight with

me. Now, I don't know what possessed me in that

moment to say the next thing I did. Maybe I was feeling

guilty that because I was my daddy's son, I could ride

Ghost Wind. Maybe it was that, but it wasn't out of fear I

said what I said. I no longer was afraid of Mitchell. "You

want to ride him?" I asked.

Mitchell took a step backward. It was obvious he hadn't

expected me to say that. "You know I can't ride him," he

said. "Your white daddy'd kill me."

"You want to ride him?" I asked again.

Mitchell looked at the stallion, then at me. "So, what if I

do?"

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.
