Question 14 of 24
Read the following passage:
It actually began as a way to prevent strong emotional
attachments. Couples were assigned for the sole purpose
of species survival. Children were reassigned to new
families regularly. The Puppeteers went to great lengths to
make sure we were isolated and fractured. But what they
hadn't counted on was that this common tragedy would
unite us - that instead of turning against one another, we
would rally together. I was not allowed to raise my own son
and daughter. But I would do my best to love and raise
every displaced son and daughter who came through my
home.

strong emotional attachments cannot be prohibited.

control are abusing their power.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT!!!!! Read this excerpt from White Fang. [White Fang] felt a vacancy in him, a need for the hush and quietude of the stream and the cave in the cliff. Life had become too populous. There were so many of the man-animals, men, women, and children, all making noises and irritations. And there were the dogs, ever squabbling and bickering, bursting into uproars and creating confusions. The restful loneliness of the only life he had known was gone. Here the very air was palpitant with life. It hummed and buzzed unceasingly. How does White Fang change when he compares his new environment to his old environment? He appreciates that he is no longer lonely. He misses the peace of the wild. He develops a fear of the wild. He decides to become a loyal pack dog.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

In the Age of Honey, people tasted the neighborhood where they lived. From a light orange-blossom flavor that is almost a perfume to dark buckwheat with a hint of soil and grain, honey tastes like local flowers. And that was only part of its appeal. Bees work very hard, and it is easy to see that a queen bee is surrounded by worker bees that protect and serve her. To the ancients, a beehive was perfect, for it brought a gift of sweetness to people while being a mirror of their lives—a king or queen served by loyal subjects.

Which is the authors’ purpose for writing this passage?
to persuade readers that honey can be made in all neighborhoods
to inform readers about the cultural and historical significance of honey
to inform readers that honey is made primarily from orange blossoms
to entertain readers about how the worker bee produces honey

Nathan read the following paragraph from a short story:

Jeffrey knew he was lost when he passed the same red barn for the third time. If his phone’s battery weren’t dead, he could call the hotel and get directions and find out where on Earth he was, instead of going in circles. His GPS was no help, either. The system didn’t have any recent maps of the area, which left him with no means of identifying his location.
