Kyle is writing an argument in favor of raising the legal voting age.


Which of the following paragraphs provides the clearest context, or background, for his claim?

The extension of the right to vote to young adults is harmful to our nation. The legal voting age should be raised.

Just like the Eighteenth Amendment was later repealed, the Twenty-Sixth Amendment should also be repealed, and the voting age restored to 21.
C.
Young people have different perspectives on issues than adults. They don’t understand the complexities of our political system or the key issues involved. That’s why they shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

The bookshop sign was a tattered symbol of better days, dangling above the storefront by one corner like a monkey at the zoo. But Rose didn’t care as she pushed open the door, her heart pounding in her ears. Inside, she beheld a room so crammed with books, it was like the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian squished into a space the size of a living room. Stacks of volumes seemed to grow up from the floor like limestone stalagmites in a cave. Dwarfed by the piles of books and the towering shelves, Rose marched bravely up to the front counter and faced the clerk, who appeared annoyed. “If you please,” Rose asked politely, “do you have the book, The Lion Roars, by Penelope Puddle?” The clerk, who couldn’t have been more than 18 himself, peered down at Rose with an angry look on his face. “No!” he barked, scaring poor Rose so much, she backed into a stack of books, toppling the whole pile and triggering a swirling dust cloud. Rose picked herself up and dusted off her clothing, looking for a moment like she was ready to give up. Then she turned back to the clerk and asked in a voice so sweet you could’ve served it with tea, “Couldn’t you please check?” 3 Sensory language in this passage helps convey to the reader A. what Rose's home life was like. B. the atmosphere in the bookshop. C. what other businesses were nearby. D. what actions will likely occur next.

THE MATCH

There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.

Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.

In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
