read the introduction and first paragraph of an essay about energy sources.
(1) the nation's energy use is largely dependent on fossil fuels. (2) these fuels are nonrenewable resources, and they cause pollution. (3) we cannot continue our reliance on a fuel that will eventually run out. (4) thus, we must find other ways to sustain our energy demands. (5) pursuing alternative fuel sources is the key to solving our energy crisis.
(6) currently, about 1 percent of energy in the united states is produced by the sun, and solar energy has the potential to become a more widely used energy source. (7) through different technologies, such as solar cells, scientists have learned to use the sun’s radiation to create electricity. (8) solar energy is both inexhaustible and clean. (9) the major limit to this alternative source is that equipment is expensive. (10) developing a cost-effective way to harness the power of the sun will be a significant development in solving our energy crisis.
which statement introduces a new counterclaim to the author’s position?
batteries are being developed to harness the sun's power for use at a later time.
the production of solar energy is relatively quiet, reducing noise pollution.
solar panels can be placed in remote areas, which is more cost effective than installing high-voltage wires.
the use of solar energy is especially limited in areas that do not get regular sunlight.

Read the selection below and answer the question. an open boat by alfred noyes o, what is that whimpering there in the darkness? 

 'let him lie in my arms. he is breathing, i know.
 look. i'll wrap all my hair round his neck' – the sea's rising,
 the boat must be lightened. he's dead. he must go.' 


 see - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses, 
 the cloud of white faces, in the black open boat, 
 and the wild pleading woman that clasps her dead lover 
 and wraps her loose hair round his breast and his throat.
 'come, lady, he's dead.' - 'no, i feel his heart beating,
 he's living, i know. but he's numbed with the cold. 
 see, i'm wrapping my hair all around him to warm him.' -
- 'no. we can't keep the dead, dear. come, loosen your hold.

 'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -
 o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way! 
 and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness, 
 to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. which choice best describes the conflict in this poem? the winds are rocking the boat. a man is thrown into the sea. a woman doesn’t want to let go of her dead lover. someone is crying in the darkness.
