Read the text and answer the questions. Video games did not always exist, and they have changed over time. The first documented video game machine was an invention at the World's Fair of 1940. It was a large contraption that enabled two players to compete in an ancient number game called Nim. Then, an interactive game played on a computer came out in 1961. It was called Spacewar. Next, that space game was turned into an arcade game in 1971. A year later, in 1972, the first game console for home use, called the Atari, was invented. After that, 1983, the Nintendo company made a video game run by laser disc. Since that time, video games have become more and more technical. Now, you can play video games on hand- held devices and even phones! Chances are that video games will continue to become even more advanced.

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.
