Pandora's Post
by B. K. McSwain
Lillian couldn't believe how out of hand everything had become after her innocuous
post it was only supposed to entertain her friends. After all, Skye was an incredible
singer/songwriter, and Lillian only wanted her friends to know, but now. Skye was not talking
to her, and she was in danger of losing her new best friend. It all started three weeks ago
when Lillian was at Skye's house and Skye mentioned she played the guitar,
"How have we been friends for so long and I never knew you played?" Lillian asked.
Six months is not that long, but it does seem like we've known each other for years."
Skye admitted, strumming the guitar. Then she began a melody that captivated Lillian and
when she began singing, Lillian couldn't believe her friend was so talented. She fumbled with
her phone until she had accessed the video camera and began recording the impromptu
performance.
"This is so going up on my page!" Lillian announced and before Skye could protest the
song was posted to her social media page, and before Skye could insist she take it down. It
had 15 "likes." Lillian convinced her friend to let it stay, and they would ve forgotten all about
it had it not gone viral.
Now. Skye was fielding calls from all over the country from music producers wanting her
to record with them. The producer of a morning show had invited her to perform on live TV.
and local news people were camped in her yard. Not only had Lillian not known about her
friend's talent but she had not known about her friend's modesty that bordered on
diffidence, and this deplorable lack of self-confidence had caused Skye to become a hermit in
her house trying to avoid the publicity

Read this passage: many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes. but plastic is not very strong. it must be fused with glass or steel for strength. it is also not very durable. even the strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. the biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not decompose. while plastic can be recycled, doing so is tedious and difficult. while it may be more expensive and difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger building material with far greater tensile strength. it conducts electricity because it is metal. best of all, aluminum is very easy to recycle. even if it is thrown away, it decomposes much more quickly than most manufacturing materials. how does the compare-and-contrast organizational pattern of the passage support the author's purpose? a. the passage gradually leads up to the point about decomposition to inform the reader about the importance of recycling plastics. b. the passage lists the advantages and disadvantages of each material to make a case for the use of plastic and not aluminum in containers. c. the passage begins with a description of plastic's problems in order to call attention to the good qualities of aluminum. d. the passage shows the superiority of aluminum in order to make a case for the production of stronger plastics.
