It was Tabitha's turn to give her presentation on one of the countries in Africa to our social studies class. The assignment was for each student to pick a country, research it, and then give a short speech on something that was interesting to the student. Tabitha walked up to the dry-erase board, grabbed the red marker, and wrote in large letters at the top of the board, “Republic of Côte D’Ivoire.” She said, “In English, we usually call this country the Ivory Coast. In my research, I found it interesting that the Ivory Coast produces 43% of the world’s cocoa. This means that most of the chocolate in the world comes from the Ivory Coast.” Like most kids, we all enjoy chocolate, so several of us in the class made happy sounds and began to listen more closely. “I know,” Tabitha said. “I thought that was great, too! But the story is not all happy. A study in 2002 found that almost 300,000 children are forced to work on African cocoa plantations as slaves. Usually, they are working in very unsafe conditions and are not given enough to eat. Here in the United States, we have laws against child labor. In the Ivory Coast, the same laws do not exist.” I was getting a little uncomfortable, hearing about this terrible problem. Everyone around me seemed a little uneasy, too. And then Tabitha brought out the worst fact of all. “Unfortunately,” she said, “most of the chocolate we eat comes from these plantations I’m talking about.” The class murmured unhappily. “How terrible!” I yelled. “Isn’t there anything we can do to stop it?” Tabitha looked at me and smiled. “Yes!” she cried. “I was worried too, but then I found out that it is really easy to help fix this problem. All we have to do is make sure that the chocolate we buy has this symbol on it.” She held up a poster with an outline of a person holding two baskets. Above the drawing, it said “Fair Trade Certified.” “If you make sure that all the chocolate you eat has this symbol on it, then you are helping the problem. If enough of us stop buying chocolate that is not Fair Trade Certified, then the people doing these terrible things will not be able to make any money. We can all help!” Everyone clapped and Tabitha handed around samples of Fair Trade Certified chocolate. It tasted great! 1. Which of these details would be most important in a summary of this passage? Most kids in the classroom enjoy chocolate. Almost 300,000 child slaves work on African cocoa plantations. Several students became uncomfortable hearing about the problem. The assignment was to pick a country, research it, and give a speech about it.

The earliest known villages in ancient Egypt date back over 5,000 years. These villages became part of two kingdoms. One of these kingdoms controlled the villages on the Nile Delta. The other controlled the villages south of the delta. The delta area was known as Lower Egypt. The southern region was known as Upper Egypt. Egyptian civilization began about 3100 B.C. King Menes, a king from Upper Egypt, conquered Lower Egypt. He then united the country and formed the world's first national government. King Menes founded Memphis as the capital. (This is near present-day Cairo.) King Menes also created the first Egyptian dynasty. A dynasty is a series of rulers in the same family. Over 30 dynasties ruled ancient Egypt. The first two dynasties ruled for about 400 years. During this period, the Egyptians developed irrigation systems, plows, and a system of writing. The years of the third and fourth dynasties were known as the Old Kingdom, or the Pyramid Age. As the name suggests, this period was best known for the building of the great pyramids. By the time of the fifth dynasty, the king’s power began to weaken. High priests and government officials fought for power. Most of the next five dynasties had weak rulers. 2. Which detail should be included in the summary of this passage? Memphis is located near present-day Cairo. The delta area was known as Lower Egypt. The king lost power during the fifth dynasty. More than 30 dynasties ruled ancient Egypt.

You know the question marks only appear if you copy and paste something right?
Mhnnn I thinking either C Or D but just like I mentioned in the other one, which of these (the most important) would you add in your summary. Remember your summary has to be able to tell what you understood of the story in a smaller paragraph.

Tabitha's report about the Ivory Coast focused on the country's production of most of the world's cocoa and chocolate. Tabitha gave a report about child slavery used to produce chocolate in the Ivory Coast and told her class how to help the problem. Tabitha gave a report about how most of the world's chocolate is produced in the Ivory Coast by child slaves in terrible conditions. Tabitha's report about the Ivory Coast ended with a suggestion that her class should only purchase Fair Trade Certified chocolate.
