It is easy to make a delicious-looking hamburger at home. But would this hamburger still look delicious after it sat on your kitchen table under very bright lights for six or seven hours? If someone took a picture or made a video of this hamburger after the seventh hour, would anyone want to eat it? More importantly, do you think you could get millions of people to pay money for this hamburger?
These are the questions that fast food companies worry about when they produce commercials or print ads for their products. Video and photo shoots often last many hours. The lights that the photographers use can be extremely hot. These conditions can cause the food to look quite unappealing to potential consumers. Because of this, the menu items that you see in fast food commercials are probably not actually edible.
Let’s use the hamburger as an example. The first step towards building the perfect commercial hamburger is the bun. The food stylist—a person employed by the company to make sure the products look perfect—sorts through hundreds of buns until he or she finds one with no wrinkles. Next, the stylist carefully rearranges the sesame seeds on the bun using glue and tweezers for maximum visual appeal. The bun is then sprayed with a waterproofing solution so that it will not get soggy from contact with other ingredients, the lights, or the humidity in the room.
Next, the food stylist shapes a meat patty into a perfect circle. Only the outside of the meat gets cooked—the inside is left raw so that the meat remains moist. The food stylist then paints the outside of the meat patty with a mixture of oil, molasses, and brown food coloring. Grill marks are either painted on or seared into the meat using hot metal skewers.
Finally, the food stylist searches through dozens of tomatoes and heads of lettuce to find the best-looking produce. One leaf of the crispest lettuce and one center slice of the reddest tomato are selected and then sprayed with glycerin to keep them looking fresh.
So the next time you see a delectable hamburger in a fast food commercial, remember: you’re actually looking at glue, paint, raw meat, and glycerin! Are you still hungry?
The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to
A
convince readers not to eat at fast food restaurants
B
explain how fast food companies make their food look delicious in commercials
C
teach readers how to make delicious-looking food at home
D
criticize fast food companies for lying about their products in commercials

Answer:
In my school, dress code is a common enemy. The girls are treated unfairly and must abide by the rules while the boys get off free.
Explanation:
Dear Mr/Ms……,
It was brought to my attention that there is some inequity in the school’s enforcement of the uniform policy. Many times the girls have been told their shorts are too short while we have personally observed several boys walking around with their pants so low that their underwear can be seen. Many of us believe this is wrong and is an indication of disparate treatment.
We have always been raised that a rule is the expectation, regardless. If the boys are allowed to interpret the rule any way that they can, the girls should be able to as well. We understand the schools thought process that shorter shorts or tank tops can distract the boys, but we find that unacceptable. To us that is simply allowing their behavior to continue and simply saying “boys will be boys”. Women have fought in the last 100 years for equality and the “boys will be boys” philosophy should not be accepted.
However, we recognize sometimes there are more issues and life is not as simple as we wish it could be. Therefore, we are not asking to change the dress policy to allow girls to wear tank tops or be questioned when their shorts are 4/10th of an inch too short, we are simply asking that the rules be enforced with equity, that everyone is held to the same expectation because we are all equal.
We have been told that a good negotiation is when no one walks away from the table happy because no one person got what they absolutely wanted. We believe, if you want to treat the girls and boys with equality, then the rules should be enforced with equality. If the expectation is clearly communicated to everyone and enforced with equality, then no one has any room to complain, even if they don’t agree with the policy.
We appreciate your time.

what are some environmentally issues?
My Answer:
Two environmental issues that I can think of are:
1.) Climate Change.
2.) Air Pollution.
Explanation - Climate Change:
The effects of climate change are widespread, as it will cause issues with deforestation, water supplies, oceans and ecosystems. Each of these have widespread implications of their own, marking climate change as the major environmental issue the planet faces today.
Explanation - Air Pollution:
Air pollution is becoming an increasingly dangerous problem, particularly in heavily-populated cities. The World Health Organization (WHO) has found that 80% of people living in urban areas are exposed to air quality levels deemed unfit by the organization.
It is also directly linked to other environmental issues, such as acid rain and eutrophication. Animals and humans are also at risk of developing a number of health problems due to air pollution.
The Song of the Friend
(From the Paiute Indian Dialect, Translated by Mary Austin)
This is the song of the Friend,
Made by the Medicine Man
In the young dusk of the spring,
Moonless and tender,
At the hour when the balm-giving herbs
Begin to be musky and sweet along the creek borders,
When the smell of the sage is sharp in the trails of the cattle
And the ants run busily still
Up the poles of the pine trees;
The shuffle and beat of his feet
We heard in the dust by his doorway.
Out and aside from the hut
The pound of his feet and the roll of the ram's-horn rattle
Was more loud than the purr of the creek
Or the wings of the night hawk,
And the drone of his singing sweet
And the night desirous.
All night he sang till the young, thin moon came out,
And about the wolf hour of the morning
The earth by his hut was beaten to dust by his dancing,
And the eyes of the Medicine Man
Were pale as the sloughs before sun-dawn,
And the shadow of all his songs
Lay under them and in the cheek hollows
Like ash on the hearthstone;
And his voice was bitter and thick
As the dust stirred up by his dancing.
And still in my heart I hear the throb of his singing
When I go by the sweet-smelling trails
In the moonless evenings of April.
My pulse is full of the whisper and beat,
Over-full and aching with song,
When the smell of the campfire comes out by the creeks
And the nights are young and desirous.
The author of this poem assumes that readers will know
A.
what the dance moves are.
B.
the sound of the creek.
C.
the tune of the song.
D.

Dear John,
I do hope this letter will find you in good health. It has been a long time since you visit us. I realized that things in the city have changed since you moved five years ago. During these years, the local council has improved our town in so many ways that my life now is excellent in contrast to what it used to be, let me tell you about it.
One of the most notorious changes was the new mall, which created several jobs for the people. I work there. I have met so many interesting people and learned a lot about managing a place.
Also, Do you remember the abandoned factory? The council demolished it and made a park. It is an excellent place to go for a run and to meet with friends. I like going there and meditate after a run. Since the park opened, I have improved my health.
Lastly, the local council built a public library with free internet and brand new installations. I love studying there. It has all that I need to do well in school.
I hope you visit us soon so that you can see the changes.
Kisses!
Jenna.
