O A The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's use of the
entire animal, even non-meat parts, thus contributing to the
central idea of American ingenuity.
OB The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's use of animals,
even spoiled meat and non-meat parts, thus contributing to the
central idea of the industry's corrupt and unsanitary nature.
OC The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's terrible
treatment of its livestock, thus contributing to the central idea
of the industry's corrupt and cruel animal-raising practices.
OD The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's mistreatment
of its employees, taking advantage of them and leaving only
their voice, thus contributing to the central idea of the
employees exposing the horrors of the industry.

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

"The Jungle" is a novel written by Upton Sinclair. The novel elucidates on the horrific working conditions of the meat industry, that it created great public uproar bringing new federal safety laws in the nation.

The phrase "they use everything of the pig except the squeal" advances the central idea of the text by informing the audience about the environment of the meatpacking industry and that they use even spoiled meat and non-meat parts to make meat. This furthers the central idea that the industry is corrupt and holds unhygienic sanitary conditions.

Therefore, option B is correct.

2. Logos

Read the excerpt from Utopia.

The folly of men has enhanced the value of gold and silver because of their scarcity; whereas, on the contrary, it is their opinion that Nature, as an indulgent parent, has freely given us all the best things in great abundance, such as water and earth, but has laid up and hid from us the things that are vain and useless.

Read the excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.

The night whispered of distant thunder. It was muggy, hot, a miserable night for sleeping. Twice I had awakened hoping that it was time to be up, but each time the night had been total blackness with no hint of a graying dawn. On the front porch Mr. Morrison sat singing soft and low into the long night, chanting to the approaching thunder. He had been there since the house had darkened after church, watching and waiting as he had done every night since Papa had been injured. No one had ever explained why he watched and waited, but I knew. It had to do with the Wallaces.

Just as two colors will, when carefully mixed, form a third and different color (yellow and blue, for example, produce green), so too it is sometimes possible to see in the cooperative efforts of living things a resultant accomplishment that defies description on the basis of the characteristics of the creatures involved. A description of the traits and performances of the individual members of a hive of honeybees or a championship athletic team hardly serves to describe the results of their joint efforts.

Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai and then answer the question.

Eleven eyes. When at last he dared to look up, what he noticed was their eyes. Each pair a different color: green as a stormy sea, blue as the sky, black as night, or brown as his own. One man had only one eye, and that one as gray as a cloudy day. The other eye was covered with a patch.

There did not seem to be any tails, horns, or fangs among them. There were some alarmingly hairy faces and plenty of big noses, though!

Six big noses, in fact: one long and hooked, two long and straight, one squashed and wide, one turned up at the end, and another as big and red as a radish.

He is right. We are not youth any longer. We don't want to take the world by storm. We are fleeing. We fly from ourselves. From our life. We were eighteen and had begun to love life and the world; and we had to shoot it to pieces. The first bomb, the first explosion, burst in our hearts. We are cut off from activity, from striving, from progress. We believe in such things no longer, we believe in the war.“ (Remarque 87-88).

Surely she was near the cabins now, Sam thought. Even as she saw the
storm clouds headed her way, she hiked on up the mountain. She
could set up her tent here, she knew, and wait out the approaching
storm. It was getting closer, and it would be so much easier to set up
the tent now while the weather was still dry. But it would be so much
more comfortable if she could just get to the cabin first. More than
anything, she just wanted to sleep in a real bed tonight. As the first
drops of rain began to fall, Sam stopped. She struggled to set up the
tent as the wind whipped around her.
