Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon.” now i tell what is very strong magic. i woke in the midst of the night. when i woke, the fire had gone out and i was cold. it seemed to me that all around me there were whisperings and voices. i closed my eyes to shut them out. some will say that i slept again, but i do not think that i slept. i could feel the spirits drawing my spirit out of my body as a fish is drawn on a line. why should i lie about it? i am a priest and the son of a priest. if there are spirits, as they say, in the small dead places near us, what spirits must there not be in that great place of the gods? and would not they wish to speak? after such long years? i know that i felt myself drawn as a fish is drawn on a line. i had stepped out of my body—i could see my body asleep in front of the cold fire, but it was not i. i was drawn to look out upon the city of the gods. how does the narrator respond to the conflict in this passage?

The arctic national wildlife refuge is home to caribou, moose, musk oxen, wolves, foxes, grizzlies, polar bears and migratory birds. leaders in the oil industry believe the refuge is the perfect site for the “environmentally sensitive exploration” of oil. environmentalists are wondering: what will become of the wildlife? president george w. bush, oil-industry leaders and others believe that americans will benefit from the oil that lies under the snow-filled surface of the refuge. in their opinion, the oil will reduce high fuel prices and decrease our need for oil from other countries. i believe the cost of such drilling is too high. i agree with environmentalists who fear that drilling will disturb the migration of more than 130,000 caribou. each spring, the caribou travel 400 miles to give birth on the coastal plain. in this area of the refuge, there are fewer predators. in addition, experts say that the oil in the area adds up to less than a six-month supply. is such a small amount of oil worth the risk drilling poses to these animals? americans are the largest consumers of oil. instead of drilling for oil, we should decrease our need for foreign oil simply by using less. we must all work together to cut back on the oil we use in order to preserve the wildlife of the arctic national wildlife refuge. what type of argument is used in this paragraph? i believe the cost of such drilling is too high. i agree with environmentalists who fear that drilling will disturb the migration of more than 130,000 caribou. each spring, the caribou travel 400 miles to give birth on the coastal plain. in this area of the refuge, there are fewer predators. in addition, experts say that the oil in the area adds up to less than a six-month supply. is such a small amount of oil worth the risk drilling poses to these animals? a. appeal to emotion c. appeal to logic b. bandwagon d. none of the above select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d
