Which text feature would best support the details in the
excerpt?
Read the excerpt from Into the Unknown by Stewart Ross.
It was soon clear that the Ma Robert had serious design
faults. Her engine was not powerful enough to drive her
upstream against strong currents, and her boiler
consumed vast quantities of wood: a day's steaming
needed one and a half day's wood-cutting. Her hull was
made of thin sheets of a new kind of steel that had not
been tested. It soon developed so many holes that it
leaked like a colander and had to be continually pumped
out. "For us, steam was no labor-saving power,"
Livingstone grumbled in his journal. He called the Ma
Robert all sorts of names: "the wretched little steamer," the
"tin kettle," and "the slow puffing Asthmatic."
O a photograph of Charles Livingstone
O an illustration of Ma Robert
O a map of the African continent
O a chart of the many uses of steam

Read the passage from animal farm. one sunday morning squealer announced that the hens, who had just come in to lay again, must surrender their eggs. napoleon had accepted, through whymper, a contract for four hundred eggs a week. the price of these would pay for enough grain and meal to keep the farm going till summer came on and conditions were easier. when the hens heard this, they raised a terrible outcry. they had been warned earlier that this sacrifice might be necessary, but had not believed that it would really happen. they were just getting their clutches ready for the spring sitting, and they protested that to take the eggs away now was murder. for the first time since the expulsion of jones, there was something resembling a rebellion. led by three young black minorca pullets, the hens made a determined effort to thwart napoleon's wishes. their method was to fly up to the rafters and there lay their eggs, which smashed to pieces on the floor. napoleon acted swiftly and ruthlessly. he ordered the hens' rations to be stopped, and decreed that any animal giving so much as a grain of corn to a hen should be punished by death. the dogs saw to it that these orders were carried out. for five days the hens held out, then they capitulated and went back to their nesting boxes. nine hens had died in the meantime. their bodies were buried in the orchard, and it was given out that they had died of coccidiosis. whymper heard nothing of this affair, and the eggs were duly delivered, a grocer's van driving up to the farm once a week to take them away. which detail from the passage supports the claim that this is an allegory for the great purge? the hens holding out for five days but capitulating the eggs being delivered to the grocer the protesting hens being intentionally starved coccidiosis spreading on the farm
