Read the following introductory paragraph: A slow, sad drama unfolding on a remote island is providing a grim challenge to the National Park Service's traditional policy
of letting nature take its course, Isle Royale in Lake Superior is home to the longest studied predator-prey relationship in the
world. For over sixty years biologists have been watching the island's moose and wolf populations, recording but not
interfering in their struggles. But now, the wolf population is doomed and the delicate island ecosystem is spinning out of
balance. It is time for NPS scientists to put down their notebooks and step in. It is time to save the wolves, and save the island.
What is the main function of the sentence "For over sixty years biologists have been watching the island's moose and wolf
populations, recording but not interfering in their struggles," in the paragraph?

Hich excerpt from fast food nation best illustrates the use of the rhetorical appeal logos? teenagers open the fast food outlets in the morning, close them at night, and keep them going at all hours in between. elisa’s mother usually drives her the half-mile or so to the restaurant, but sometimes elisa walks, leaving home before the sun rises. the labor practices of the fast food industry have their origins in the assembly line systems adopted by american manufacturers in the early twentieth century. fast food kitchens often seem like a scene from bugsy malone, a film in which all the actors are children pretending to be adults.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
