A. a quotation from the director of an overcrowded animal shelter.

Explanation:

Since the claim that has to be supported relates to adapting a dog from the shelter to solve the overpopulation problem, a quotation from the director of an overcrowded shelter would most likely be relevant to the claim, by lending it more credibility by including an authentic source who has first-hand experience of the problem presented in the claim, and is in a position to comment on the given solution.

The other options are not correct because:

The statistic about the number of cats and dogs living in the wild worldwide does not relate to the shelter and adopting dogs.Examples of exotic animals that animal shelters cannot accept might hint at the problem of overpopulation, but not necessarily; It could be because of various other reasons. Mentioning it lends the shelter a slightly negative image by making it seem like the shelter is trying to get rid of the dogs to accommodate more exotic animals, which would shift the focus of the claim to exotic animals.A statistic about the number of Americans who own dogs might be helpful in motivating people to adopt dogs, but doesn't provide information relevant to the claim regarding the overpopulation problem or its solution.

answer: it is true that students often work and do household chores, but managing homework in addition to other responsibilities students learn to organize their time efficiently and prioritize their studies.

the first argument attacks those who disagree, asking them to be "realistic" and "accept facts." this is not conducive to healthy debate and disagreement. the second one only takes into account a section of the student population, and ignores the other one. finally, the third option offers only anecdotal evidence. it is only the last option that provides a well-constructed argument in a persuasive way.

Read the excerpt from "a modest proposal." the poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress, and to pay their landlord's rent, their corn and cattle being already seized, and money a thing unknown. which statement effectively uses a quotation to show that swift claims that the poor will also benefit from his proposal? “swift writes that poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress.” swift writes that poorer tenants will finally have something to pay their landlord’s rent since they have neither money nor trade. swift writes that poorer tenants will have something to trade for rent since “their corn and cattle” have already been seized. swift writes that “poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own” that can “ to pay their landlord’s rent.”

The harlem renaissance dawned in an era of pervasive racism and segregation. although legally "free," many african americans were still bound by ideas that had their roots in the slavery of earlier centuries. identity and freedom are important ideas presented in many of the poems from the harlem renaissance. furthermore, the values of identity and freedom are not unique to particular times and places. as hughes expresses in "dream variations," all humans want to be able to develop their identities in freedom. what role does freedom play in the poems you read in this unit? what is required of a society to enable each individual to be true to his or her identity and be free to live by that identity? write about at least three of the poems, describing how the poet uses imagery to depict freedom and identity, the lack of it, or the desire for it.
