2. PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

A. “He points out, however, that the ‘college wage premium,’ the difference between the annual and lifetime earnings of college graduates and those who do not have an undergraduate degree, has been volatile in the United States over time.” (Paragraph 7)

B. “51% in business, 55% in the liberal arts, 56% in communications and 56% in leisure and hospitality were in jobs where a bachelor’s degree was not required!” (Paragraph 12)

C. “Currently derided by proponents of a more ‘practical’ curriculum, the liberal arts, he writes, ‘may make the greatest intellectual and learning demands on students of any field.’” (Paragraph 20)

D. “But the relationship between the choice of a specific institution and a major and a lucrative and fulfilling first job and career is complicated. It has lots of moving parts.” (Paragraph 23)

Answers

Answer:

D. “But the relationship between the choice of a specific institution and a major and a lucrative and fulfilling first job and career is complicated. It has lots of moving parts.” (Paragraph 23)

Explanation:

Part A question is: Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text?

A. Having a college degree isn't valuable right now, as there are few jobs that actually require people to have a degree.

B. It's difficult to measure the long-term financial payoffs that certain majors will yield, which is why it's best to choose majors based on your interests and strengths.

C. Students should focus on occupation-specific majors, as they're more likely to be placed into jobs immediately after graduating.

D. While liberal art degrees don't prepare students for a specific job, they give widely applicable skills that all employers value.

The correct option is B, and we can see that option D in part B best supports the answer because it talks about institutions, which is where people study to major in a specific area regarding interests and strengths. Also, it mentions that the relationship between the choice of an institution, a major, a lucrative and fulfilling first job, and a career has lots of moving parts. In these moving parts, there are different variables. They modify how well a certain degree will pay off and the many facts that influence the choice of a career.

Answers

Answer: Critical

Explanation: The paragraph shows a critical tone due to the last two sentences. The beginning was purely informative of the rising popularity of cell phone usage. None of the particulate tones were being used. As the paragraph progresses, the author switches to the stating a negative side to cell phone usage. This being said, melancholy and humorous make no particular sense as an answer, which leaves us with respectful and critical. We can eliminate respectful because although the author was respectful, there was more to it then just that. Hope that helps!

A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).

In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Personification involves intentionally attributing life, human characteristics (qualities) or feelings and emotions to animate and inanimate objects i.e non-living things.

An example of personification in the excerpt above is, The lizard uses a sword to cut crops. It's practically impossible for a lizard or any other animal to use a sword in cutting crops because they lack the sense, ability and composure to do so.
