Its main attraction is Mount Rushmore, which sports 70-foot-high faces of four Presidents, carved 600 feet above the valley. One of the most well-known presidents, Abraham Lincoln was known as “Honest Abe”. South Dakota is a truly beautiful place to visit.

Which sentence from the paragraph best describes the main idea of the passage?

a "The invention of the Walkman portable cassette player meant a person could carry music everywhere."
b "MP3 players are still relatively new and are the most portable music option of all."
c "As audio technology changes, so do the ways people listen to music."
d "The turntable used to play albums is not very portable."

Answer 12

Hold on LOL

Answer 13

As audio technology changes, so do the ways people listen to music. When music was mostly on vinyl albums, those large discs called records, music listening happened at home. The turntable used to play albums is not very portable. Eight-track tapes made listening to music in the car possible. Then devices got smaller, and music became even more portable. The invention of the Walkman portable cassette player meant a person could carry music everywhere. Portable CD players were also easy to carry. However, they often skipped if they were bumped. MP3 players are still relatively new and are the most portable music option of all. A person with an MP3 player can carry as much as 40 days worth of music at once and never have to worry about the music skipping.

Answer 34

How many times have you gone to a movie theater to see the latest release? After sitting through a two or three hour movie most people are ready to leave the theater and head home. Hopefully, they are eager to talk about the movie. However, how many of those people stay through the end credits? Movie credits can sometimes be just as entertaining as the movie they accompany, especially in the "special thanks" section; however, movie credits are made to be informative.
If you've never stayed tuned past the end of a movie to watch its credits, you're missing out. The end credits list everyone who was involved in making a movie. It involves reading through a lot of text; however, this is beneficial to a moviegoer. If you enjoyed the movie, you can read the names of those involved. The next time they are involved in making a movie, you may decide you want to see it. The opposite is also true. If you thought the movie was terrible, you now know who made the movie. You can avoid any other movie they may be involved in. Knowing who made the movie can help you in deciding whether or not to see any of their movies in the future.

Movie credits help moviegoers decide what movies to see. Which statement best supports this idea?

If an actor is involved in a bad movie, the moviegoer might not want to see him or her in another movie.
Movie credits require reading a lot of text to find information that might be helpful.
Most people do not stay to watch the credits because they have been sitting for too long.
Movie credits can be entertaining to watch, especially during the "special thanks" section.

As audio technology changes, so do the ways people listen to music. When music was mostly on vinyl albums, those large discs called records, music listening happened at home. The turntable used to play albums is not very portable. Eight-track tapes made listening to music in the car possible. Then devices got smaller, and music became even more portable. The invention of the Walkman portable cassette player meant a person could carry music everywhere. Portable CD players were also easy to carry. However, they often skipped if they were bumped. MP3 players are still relatively new and are the most portable music option of all. A person with an MP3 player can carry as much as 40 days worth of music at once and never have to worry about the music skipping.


Which sentence from the paragraph supports the idea that music became more portable as audio devices got smaller?

Camp David is a secure location where the President can get away from it all. Established in 1942 by President Roosevelt, Camp David is located in Maryland, about 70 miles from Washington, D.C. in a heavily wooded area. U.S. Marines patrol the area providing optimal security. The Marines are part of the Navy. Because Camp David is so close to Washington, the president can be back at the White House very quickly in the event of a crisis.

Answer 49

Today, young people have less contact with senior citizens than in years past. What a shame! One reason for this situation is that families often live far apart. In the past, aging family members were commonly cared for by their kids. As a result, grandkids and grandparents had more opportunity to spend time together. Nowadays, senior citizens often live in assisted living communities when they need care. Instead of their families taking care of them, medical professionals do. The result is that children have less opportunity to spend time with senior citizens. More importantly, children are denied the wisdom of their grandparents. Grandparents also experience negative effects by this separation. They are being denied the company of youth. In turn, senior citizens can lose touch with the current world.
