Explanation: I did the usa test prep :)

In order to discuss effects of pollution, the readers should understand what pollution is. The correct option is D.

The term "introduction" refers to the opening or start of a presentation, written piece, or other type of communication. It establishes the tone for the remaining content and works to grab the audience's interest.

An engaging hook or opening line, a succinct and clear thesis statement or presenting goal, and a quick summary of what the audience may expect to learn or gain from the content are all typical components of a strong introduction.

It's critical to provide readers a thorough knowledge of what pollution is in order to discuss its effects.

Thus, the correct option is D.

Read the excerpt from "Mami and Papi."

“Do as I say!” Mami ordered. Still, Papi kept his back to us. I plunked the can full of nails down hard, willing him to hear and tell me to stay, but he didn’t. I dawdled after Mami down the three steps into the yard. Delsa and Norma, my younger sisters, took turns swinging from a rope Papi had hung under the mango tree.

“Why can’t they help with the kindling?” I pouted.

Mami swatted the side of my head. “Don’t talk back,” she said. “You girls keep away from the house while your father is working,” she warned as we walked by my sisters having fun.

Which type of conflict is demonstrated in this excerpt?

A. individual vs. society

Lester, the foreman, came to check on the fence I'd been building.
"Having any trouble?"
"I guess not. Except that the sun is about 16 feet over my head."
Lester chuckled. That was his kind of humor. Then he got pacing around. He looked down the fence row to see how straight it was. He
checked the oil in the tractor and adjusted the attachment that drilled the post holes.
"Got a pinch bar out here?"
"Yeah. It's back where I used it last, about four posts down."
Lester got back in his truck and leaned out. "Now listen, son. You should spend the rest of the afternoon deciding if you want to work on this
ranch any more. If you do, you're going to have to take those last twenty fence posts out. Before you do that even, you're going to have to put oil in
that tractor, and get your tools where you can work with them. That includes your hammer which seems to have been thrown over by that stump.
And it's none of my business, but I'd recommend you wear those leather gloves we gave you. Work is hard enough without feeling sorry for yourself
'cause you got blood running out of broken blisters."
He put the truck in gear and drove off.
Which best describes Lester?
1. mean and bossy
2. stubborn and lazy
3. fair and demanding
4. friendly and whimsical

I MET a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Select one piece of evidence that supports the situational irony of the poem.

A Nothing beside remains

B I met a traveler

C Its sculptor well those passions read
