Animal Life Spans
Humans can live to be 80, 90 or even 100 years old. In a few rare cases, they
can live even longer. Most animals, have far shorter lives than humans.
Here are some maximum life spans for small animals. A mouse, a popular pet
rodent, lives for about three years. If you get one as a pet, don’t plan on having it
until you go away to college. Guppies, the popular pet fish, live a bit longer. They
reach 5 years in age. Giant spiders can live a surprisingly long time, as long as 20
years.
What about large animals? Of the biggest animals have similar life spans. The
maximum life span of an elephant is 77 years. The maximum life span of a blue
whale is 80 years. Bears are another large animal that can live for quite a long time.
And how about reptiles? Alligators can live for more than 70 years. Turtles
can live even longer. Some species of turtles can reach over 100 years in age.

1. List one generalization you can find in the passage.

2. List one simple fact you can find in the passage.

3. Is this generalization supported by the facts in the passage? Explain why or
why not. Fish live longer than rodents.

4. Is this generalization too braod? Explain why or why not.
No animals can live to be 100 years old.

5. Make a generalization based on the facts in the passage.


( answer pls :(

Answer and Explanation:

1. A generalization can be made in the phrase "Guppies, the popular pet fish, live a bit longer. They reach 5 years in age." This is because this sentence presents a very big idea, assuming that all fish of the Guppies species live for five years, but does not give details of how it happens. This is the concept of a generalization, which is very comprehensive information that does not present supporting details.

2. A simple fact that can be seen in the passage is that humans can live about 80, 90 and 100 years. This is an affirmation that does not present any complexity and that can be presented in a clear and direct way without presenting great explanations, because its meaning is intrinsic in its structure, that is, this information is a simple fact.

3. This generalization is supported by the facts of the passage, since it is possible to see that the author presented the life expectancy of these two animals, showing that fish can live two years longer than rodends, since the text presents a kind of fish that lives for five years and shows that a mouse lives for about three years.

4. This generalization is weak, as the text shows that there are species of turtles that are capable of living for 100 years and even, beyond 100 years of life. In addition, the text presents the human being, who is also an animal, as someone who can exceed 100 years, even if it is rare.

5. "It is possible for human beings to live more than 100 years." As stated earlier, generalization is a phrase that has a very big idea, extremely comprehensive and without any supporting details. In this case, we can say that assuming that human beings can reach 100 years of age, without providing details is a generalization.
