Which statement best summarizes the writer's claim? Read the excerpt from "Water Flowing from Toilet to TaR
May Be Hard to Swallow."
As California scrambles for ways to cope with its crippling
drought and the mandatory water restrictions imposed last
month by Gov. Jerry Brown, an array of ideas that were
long dismissed as too controversial, expensive or
unpleasant are getting a second look. One is to conserve
more water, another is to turn nearby and abundant
sources of water, like the Pacific Ocean, into drinking
water through desalination
Yet another is to recycle the water Californians have
already used. And therein lies a marketing challenge that
can be even greater than the technological one.
Californians should not have to drink recycled
wastewater, even in a drought
Governor Jerry Brown was right to impose water
restrictions on Californians.
California may have a hard time convincing residents to
drink recycled wastewater.
There are various technologies that can supply
Californians with water during a drought.

Read this excerpt from through the looking-glass by lewis carroll. "you might make a joke on that,” said the little voice close to her ear: "something about ‘you would if you could,’ you know.” "don't tease so,” said alice, looking about in vain to see where the voice came from; "if you're so anxious to have a joke made, why don't you make one yourself? ” the little voice sighed deeply: it was very unhappy, evidently, and alice would have said something pitying to comfort it, "if it would only sigh like other people! ” she thought. but this was such a wonderfully small sigh, that she wouldn't have heard it at all, if it hadn't come quite close to her ear. the consequence of this was that it tickled her ear very much, and quite took off her thoughts from the unhappiness of the poor little creature. what question should a reader ask to clarify what is happening in the story? who or what is the voice speaking to alice? when will alice attempt to share a joke? what secret will alice share with the new character? why do whispers tickle the listener?
