3.) A student is writing an editorial and wants to revise it so that all claims are supported with logical reasoning and relevant evidence. Read the paragraph from the argument and answer the question below.



Light pollution has become a serious problem throughout the world. The widespread overuse of artificial lights has serious consequences and should be reduced.



Which of the following sentences does NOT belong in the editorial because it does not effectively support the claim made in the paragraph?

Some studies suggest that street lights have little impact on crime and creates false security.

Overlighting urban areas represents a huge waste of energy and money.

Artificial light is important in preventing accidents at night and improving public safety.

Light pollution has disrupted the migration patterns of bird species.

I'm pretty sure for this one it would be B: artificial light is important in preventing accidents at night and improving public safety.

The reason is that the argument says that artificial light is bad and should be reduced while answer B defends it and says it is good.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

the correct answer is d. a discussion of specific uses of alliteration

.

when you are critiquing or evaluating a poem, you will mostly pay attention to the theme, as well as figures of speech and rhythm. alliteration is a figure of speech where consonants are repeated in neighboring words - and it is important for analysis of sound and rhythm, which is why it might appear in the evaluation of that poem.
