Devon is writing a report about keeping dogs happy and healthy. He will collect information about dogs' health from many different sources. One will be an interview with a dog walker. The dog walker would NOT be the correct source to answer which of these questions?

Answers

Answer:

C) What type of dog food has the best nutrition for dogs?

Explanation:

Writing a report about how to keep dogs happy and healthy will require not only the collection of information about the animal's health but also even an individual interview with whoever is responsible for the well-being of that animal. And in interviewing the dog walker, Devon is focusing on one source among many others.

Now, regarding questions asked to a dog walker, it will be within a certain limit that the dog walker will be able to provide questions. One question that he/she cannot provide the answer for will be the type of dog food that provides the best nutrition. Since he/she is just a dog walker, he/she will be responsible for the outdoor walks and runs, and not for the food that is given to the dog.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Which statement most accurately states a claim developed in paragraph 5?A.) Traditional energy sources are safer for the planet than wind turbines.
B.) Traditional energy sources generate more power than wind turbines.
C.) Wind power is the most unreliable renewable energy resource.
D.)Wind power is the most economical renewable energy resource.

Paragraph 5: Economic Benefits of Wind Energy

Wind energy is the lowest-priced renewable energy technology we have. It can cost between 4 and 6 cents per kilowatt-hour. At first glance, it can be argued that energy from traditional power sources such as gas can cost between 3.9 and 4.4 cents per kilowatt-hour. However, gas prices can rise and burning fuel releases pollutants and greenhouse gases into the air. Coal costs between 4.8 and 5.5 cents per kilowatt-hour. Because burning coal pollutes the air and coal mining destroys forests and soil quality, coal plants must meet strict environmental regulations. This makes it difficult and costly to build new coal plants. According to Synapse Energy Economics’ most recent report, if the use of wind energy was doubled in the mid-Atlantic and Great Lakes states, consumers could save $6.9 billion a year.

How well does the author address the counterclaims in paragraph 5 that fossil fuels are less expensive than wind power?

A.) The response is effective because the author lists added financial and environmental costs of using fossil fuels that raise the cost higher than what is stated.
B.) The response is effective because the author calls into question the reliability of the source information stated in the counterclaims.
C.) The response is ineffective because the statistics clearly show that energy from fossil fuels costs less than energy from wind power.
D.) The response is ineffective because the author chooses to ignore the information presented in the counterclaims.

Answers

Answer:

Question 1: D.)Wind power is the most economical renewable energy resource

Question 2: A.) The response is effective because the author lists added financial and environmental costs of using fossil fuels that raise the cost higher than what is stated.

Explanation:

Question 1: Which statement most accurately states a claim developed in paragraph 5?

A.) Traditional energy sources are safer for the planet than wind turbines.

Traditional energy sources are suggested to be a source of pollutants and greenhouse gases, making them a less safe option compared to renewable sources

B.) Traditional energy sources generate more power than wind turbines.

This is not mentioned in the paragraph

C.) Wind power is the most unreliable renewable energy resource.

This is not mentioned in the paragraph

D.)Wind power is the most economical renewable energy resource.

This is mentioned in the first line of the paragraph where it is stated that "wind energy is the lowest-prices renewable energy technology we have"

Question 2: How well does the author address the counterclaims in paragraph 5 that fossil fuels are less expensive than wind power?

A.) The response is effective because the author lists added financial and environmental costs of using fossil fuels that raise the cost higher than what is stated.

The additional financial (rising fuel prices) and environmental costs (pollutants, impacts of mining) are detailed to suggest non-quantified costs of traditional energy sources

B.) The response is effective because the author calls into question the reliability of the source information stated in the counterclaims.

The reliability of the source is not questioned, rather additional information is provided

C.) The response is ineffective because the statistics clearly show that energy from fossil fuels costs less than energy from wind power.

The statistics mentioned show that current prices of gas and coal (which may increase) result in energy costs comparable to energy generated from wind

D.) The response is ineffective because the author chooses to ignore the information presented in the counterclaims.

The information in the counterclaims is not ignored, alternate information is presented to show a different side

B.) Traditional energy sources generate more power than wind turbines.D.) The response is ineffective because the author chooses to ignore the information presented in the counterclaims.
