Calista is writing an argumentative essay about curfews for minors. Which evidence best supports Calista's claim that implementing a curfew law in her town would yield positive results? A.
Since minors would be fined for violating a curfew, they will be motivated to come in early, reducing the risk of being involved in a dangerous situation that would typically happen late at night.
B.
When teens go home at a reasonable hour, parents feel more secure about their children, and law enforcement has much less work to do with fewer children out in the streets causing problems.
C.
While some towns have seen that the exemptions to curfew laws—such as teens traveling to and from work—cause minors to be out anyway, statistics suggest that the most dangerous time to be out is 11:00 p. m. to 6:00 a. m.
D.
Although some studies suggest that minors will ignore legal requirements concerning curfews, most cities with existing curfews have seen a reduction in crime as well as an improvement in teen sleep.

In order really to hate white people, one has to blot so much out of the mind — and the heart — that this hatred itself becomes an exhausting and self-destructive pose. but this does not mean, on the other hand, that love comes easily: the white world is too powerful, too complacent, too ready with gratuitous humiliation, and, above all, too ignorant and too innocent for that. which sentence best explains how the use of parallelism in the excerpt supports baldwin's purpose? a. it proves baldwin's central idea by highlighting the obvious. b. it emphasizes the problems that prevent one from loving the white world. c. it explains why the white world is unable to replace hate with love. d. it enumerates the many ways of dealing with the white world.
