B

C

D
Nations other than America have holidays involving fireworks.

Answer:

c

Explanation:

The passage's main theme is that "the history of fireworks involves many different kinds of celebrations." As a result, choice (C) is the appropriate response.

Pyrotechnics have a long history, which explains why festivities and important events are frequently associated with them.

When the Chinese discovered gunpowder in the first century BCE, the storied history of fireworks started. Chinese New Year and other ceremonies began employing pyrotechnics in the 10th century CE, and they also used crackers to ward off evil spirits and encourage prosperity.

Fireworks, along with many other Eastern innovations, are typically assigned to Marco Polo for bringing them to Europe in the 13th century.

The history of pyrotechnics took off with the invention of aerial shells, and manufacturers started competing to create ever-more-complex and extravagant explosions.

Hence, option (C) is accurate.

Question 16













































































































































































































Item 16
(The passage below is a draft.)

(1) In September 2018, an amazing spectacle took place in the skies above Olympic National Park: blindfolded, sedated mountain goats hovered in the air, suspended in harnesses from a helicopter. (2) After the helicopter set the goats down, veterinarians examined and tagged them. (3) A truck then transported the goats 180 miles away to North Cascades National Park. (4) Once there, helicopters again lifted the goats, this time in crates, into the mountains to be set free. (5) In this way, wildlife officials caught 114 goats in the first phase of the Mountain Goat Management Plan, but they ultimately will have relocated 90 percent of the 700 goats from the Olympics to the North Cascades. (6) This removal process may be complicated, but it is necessary.

(7) Park officials cited several reasons why the goats had to go. (8) First, goats are not indigenous to the region; the area began to be advertised as a vacation destination in the early twentieth century. (9) Since then, the goat population has flourished and could reach 1,500 by 2028. (10) Park officials also worry about the goats’ deleterious habits of damaging vegetation and causing erosion. (11) In the 1980s, a brief attempt to relocate the goats was met with public outcry.

(12) However, safety concerns were the most pressing reason for the goats’ removal. (13) With few salt licks in the Olympics, the goats turn to another source: humans. (14) Salt in human sweat is a goat magnet; worse still, some thoughtless and irresponsible people feed the goats directly. (15) Once accustomed to people, goats become aggressive in their pursuit of food. (16) After a goat injured a hiker in 2010, officials began formulating plans for the goats’ removal.

(17) The North Cascades were the ideal spot to resettle the goats. (18) As goats are native to the region, the habitat is better suited to their grazing habits. (19) Resettled in the remote parts of the park, where salt licks are plentiful and hikers are scarce, the goats will likely regain their natural wariness of people. (20) Additionally, an influx of goats to the park will boost the decreasing native population and introduce more genetic diversity.

The writer is considering deleting the underlined text in sentence 14 (reproduced below).

Salt in human sweat is a goat magnet; worse still, some thoughtless and irresponsible people feed the goats directly.

Should the writer keep or delete the underlined text?


Keep it, because it makes the argument more persuasive by including language that increases the emotional engagement of the audience.

Answer A: Keep it, because it makes the argument more persuasive by including language that increases the emotional engagement of the audience.
A

Keep it, because it clarifies the point the writer is making by explaining which people are at the greatest risk of being hurt by the goats.

Answer B: Keep it, because it clarifies the point the writer is making by explaining which people are at the greatest risk of being hurt by the goats.
B

Keep it, because it encourages the audience to identify with the park officials who work to solve the problem rather than the park visitors who make the problem worse.

Answer C: Keep it, because it encourages the audience to identify with the park officials who work to solve the problem rather than the park visitors who make the problem worse.
C

Delete it, because it distracts from the writer’s purpose of emphasizing human safety concerns by using language that focuses blame on human visitors to the park.

Answer D: Delete it, because it distracts from the writer’s purpose of emphasizing human safety concerns by using language that focuses blame on human visitors to the park.
D

Delete it, because it contradicts the writer’s claim in sentence 15 that goats behave differently after they are accustomed to human contact.
