Answer:
in the presentation of the negative effects of the problem
Explanation:
The higher rate of accidents associated with drivers who text while behind the wheel is clearly a negative consequence of doing so. As such, it belongs in the part of the presentation that exposes the dangers of texting while driving.
In the presentation of the solution, Ben should include AI developments that better voice texting. The slide title should not mention either negative effects or solutions, but rather the topic itself. Positive effects of the proposed solution should be reserved for the last few slides before the conclusion.

Explanation:
Miranda sat in the high school computer lab typing like mad. It was 8:30 a.m., and her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye was due at 9:00. For the past hour, she had been flipping through the ratty pages of the old paperback trying to discern the major plot points and then typing out a few sentences that she hoped were logical. The only reason she was able to get into the lab that early was because she was one of Mrs. Brody’s assistants, but a couple of hours in the lab didn’t make up for weeks of zoning out in English class.
Miranda could kick herself, but she was too busy skimming through her notes and attempting to remember something—anything!—that Mr. Giuffreda had talked about. Mr. Giuffreda was a tough grader, and Miranda did not work well under pressure—not a great combination. On top of all that, Miranda could hear her mother’s voice in her head: “One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team.” Miranda failed to see the relationship between soccer and book reports, but she also knew her mother wasn’t kidding. When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month. Another time, when Miranda had missed her curfew—again and again—she had gotten grounded for two weeks.
Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?
At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.
Based on the passage, what will Miranda’s mother probably do?
A.
ground Miranda for the next two weeks
B.
find someone to tutor Miranda in English
C.
understand that Miranda tried her best
D.
force Miranda to quit the soccer team
Answer:

What does “Beedle,Beedle,Beedle,” mean?
When the first shot of the Civil War was fired at four thirty in the morning on April 12, 1861, many believed that it would be a short conflict. Even though Fort Sumter had to endure thirty-four hours of Confederate bombardment before the Union surrendered it, the Union enjoyed a number of significant advantages over the Confederacy. Yet, by the time Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses Grant at Appomattox, Virginia, some four years later, about 620,000 soldiers had died on the battlefields, more than American battle deaths in all other wars from the Revolution through the Vietnam War.
How does this paragraph from The Dark Game best support the central idea that the Civil War was a long war?
a
It shares the detail that the war lasted four years.
b
It gives an example of a battle that lasted almost two days.
c
It states what people believed about the war at the time.
d
It tells how many soldiers actually died in the war.
Answer:
a . It shares the detail that the war lasted four years.
Explanation:
Paul Janeczko's "The Dark Game: True Spy Stories" is a novel about espionage and surveillance in the world of US politics and security. The book also describes several instances of spy stories from the real top-secret missions undertaken by the US government.
In the given passage from the novel, the author details how devastating the Civil War was for the people of the United States as the number of casualties was more than that of "wars from the Revolution through the Vietnam War." The paragraph reveals how long the Civil War took place, stating that it was "some four years later" after General Lee surrendered to Ulysses Grant.
Thus, the correct answer is option a.
