Which quotation from the essay best supports Gandhi's belief that the railways in India provide appalling service to its customers?

"At one place an important railway servant swore at a protestant, threatened to strike him and locked the door over the passengers whom he had with difficulty squeezed in."

"It was labelled to carry 22 passengers. These could only have seating accommodation. There were no bunks in this carriage whereon passengers could lie with any degree of safety or comfort."

"Now and then I have entered into correspondence with the management of the different railways about the defects that have come under my notice."

"The carriage was packed already and but for a friend's intervention I could not have been able to secure even a seat. My admission was certainly beyond the authorised number."

Following tradition, the Apollo 11 crew was given the task of designing its mission patch. Apollo 11 was, and still is, one of the most publicly recognized NASA missions ever. The eyes of the world were on Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. The Apollo 11 patch not only needed to be a symbol for the mission, it had to convey the intentions of America and the hopes of NASA. With this daunting task in front of them, the astronauts set forth to create a design. After some discussion, the crew decided to keep their names off the patch. Michael Collins explains: "We wanted to keep our three names off it because we wanted the design to be representative of everyone who had worked toward a lunar landing, and there were thousands who could take a proprietary interest in it, yet who would never see their names woven into the fabric of a patch. Further, we wanted the design to be symbolic rather than explicit."
Like the decision to keep the crew names off the patch, the choice to use the Arabic numerals "11" instead of "XI" or even "eleven" was purposeful. Neil Armstrong disliked spelling out "eleven," because it wouldn't be easily understandable to foreigners, so the crew decided on "11."
Fellow astronaut Jim Lovell suggested they use an eagle, the national bird of the United States, as the focus of the patch. Running with that proposal, Michael Collins found a picture of an eagle in a book about birds and traced it. He then sketched in a field of craters beneath the eagle's claws and the earth behind its wings.
The crew felt the patch didn't quite tell the right story. Tom Wilson, the Apollo 11 simulator instructor, suggested they add an olive branch as a symbol of the peaceful expedition. The crew was delighted with that notion and Collins quickly modified the sketch to have the eagle carrying the olive branch in its beak.
After making a few detail-oriented decisions, the patch was submitted for approval. However, the initial patch design was rejected. Bob Gilruth, the director of the then-named Manned Spacecraft Center, saw the eagle landing with its talons extended as too hostile and warlike. So, the olive branch was transferred from the eagle's mouth to his talons and the patch design was complete.

How does the last paragraph contribute to the development of ideas in the passage?
A.
It clarifies the idea that the purpose of the space program is to advance science, not develop weapons.
B.
It reiterates that the Apollo 11 lunar landing is one of the most recognized NASA missions in history.
C.
It introduces the idea that professional artists should design the patches, not the crew members.
D.
It implies that the crew wanted to use the eagle because they all came from military backgrounds.

In which sentence does the author most clearly define his argument?
adapted from The Goal of Sending a Man to the Moon
by John F. Kennedy

If we are to win the battle that is now going on around the world between freedom and tyranny, the dramatic achievements in space which occurred in recent weeks should have made clear to us all the impact of this adventure on the minds of men everywhere. Since early in my term, our efforts in space have been under review. With the advice of the Vice President, we have examined where we are strong and where we are not, where we may succeed and where we may not. Now it is time to take longer strides—time for a great new American enterprise—time for this nation to take a clearly leading role in space achievement. This in many ways may hold the key to our future on earth.
Recognizing the head start obtained by the Soviets with their large rocket engines, we nevertheless are required to make new efforts on our own.For while we cannot guarantee that we shall one day be first, we can guarantee that any failure to make this effort will make us last.We take an additional risk by making it in full view of the world, but this very risk enhances our stature when we are successful.We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share.
I therefore ask the Congress, above and beyond the increases I have earlier requested for space activities, to provide the funds which are needed to meet the following national goals:
First, I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space. None will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon—if we make this judgment affirmatively, it will be an entire nation.For all of us must work to put him there.
Secondly, an additional 23 million dollars, together with 7 million dollars already available, will accelerate development of the Rover nuclear rocket.This gives promise of some day providing a means for even more exciting and ambitious exploration of space.This will perhaps go beyond the moon, perhaps to the very end of the solar system itself.
Third, an additional 50 million dollars will make the most of our present leadership, by accelerating the use of space satellites for world-wide communications.
Fourth, there will be an additional 75 million dollars—of which 53 million dollars is for the Weather Bureau. This will help give us at the earliest possible time a satellite system for world-wide weather observation.
Let it be clear that I am asking the Congress and the country to accept a firm commitment to a new course of action—a course which will last for many years and carry very heavy costs: 531 million dollars in fiscal '62—an estimated seven to nine billion dollars additional over the next five years. If we are to go only half way, or reduce our sights in the face of difficulty, in my judgment it would be better not to go at all.

1.)For while we cannot guarantee that we shall one day be first, we can guarantee that any failure to make this effort will make us last.
2.)We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share.
3.)In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon—if we make this judgment affirmatively, it will be an entire nation.
4.)This gives promise of some day providing a means for even more exciting and ambitious exploration of space.
