For my own part a vivid dream has come to my help, and I see, almost as plainly as though I had seen it in actual fact, a blue-lit shadowy disheveled Cavor struggling in the grip of these insect Selenites, struggling ever more desperately and hopelessly as they press upon him, shouting, expostulating, perhaps even at last fighting, and being forced backwards step by step out of all speech or sign of his fellows, for evermore into the Unknown—into the dark, into that silence that has no end….

It is hard for scientists to know how many West Indian manatees there are. They estimate between 2,000 to 5,000. The West Indian manatee has been listed as an endangered species. This means that the population is so low that the West Indian manatee is in danger of becoming extinct. Many die because of accidents with ships or other human causes, such as pollution. Federal and state laws protect the manatee. Scientists are working to find ways to help the manatee survive.

Taking a break is a good thing. Adults take breaks in their jobs, and kids take breaks in school. Recess helps kids focus and stay on-task better when they are in the classroom. Going outside for recess is good for your health. The light helps us feel better, stay healthy, and keep our body in a routine. Kids get to run around at recess, which is good for physical health. Recess is a great time for kids to play together and build relationships. PLS I NEED HELP

Read the paragraph.
The schoolwide food drive is an important program that helps the community and instills a sense of responsibility in students. Last year, students collected over 600 canned goods and gave them to the Neighborhood House food pantry, which serves some of the neediest families in our community. Furthermore, many students said that helping with the drive was the first volunteer program they had ever participated in. Finally, without the student council’s support, the food drive will not be officially promoted within school and will likely languish. Therefore, it is imperative that the student council continue to encourage students to volunteer for this important program.
What answer makes the best additional evidence to support the author’s reason?

A) A poll of one hundred students found that after participating in the food drive, seventy-three participants found the experience so rewarding that they sought out new volunteer opportunities.
B) My friend Alvin participated in the food drive and said not only was it the best part of the school year, but he looks forward to helping out with the food drive next year.
C) We can definitely beat our previous goal of six hundred cans by both encouraging additional students to join the program and offering prizes for students who collect the most cans.
D) The student council needs to take a leadership role and promote the food drive so that all students, regardless of their previous volunteer experience, become active participants.
