SOURCE 1: From a meeting of upper managers at a company: Unfortunately, we're going to have to fire an employee. I think the
choice is pretty clear. The average writer on our team writes 500 words
an hour, but Jean only writes 200 words an hour. We need to send a
message that this kind of laziness won't be tolerated. Furthermore, she
insists on working 40 hours a week, which forces us to give her
benefits.
SOURCE 2: From an evaluation written by Jean's supervisor: Unlike the
average writer in our company who writes 500 words an hour, Jean
writes slowly and methodically. While her output is lower, her attention
to detail saves her supervisors hours of editing later on. She is such a
big help to our department that I would like to keep her on a 40-hour-a-
week schedule so that we can be sure to meet our new productivity
goals
Which claim do the two sources most clearly disagree on?
A. Jean's word count is lower than average for a writer at the
company
B. Jean is an outgoing people person'
C. Jean is less valuable to the company than the average writer
D. Jean receives benefits from the company

"and these i address to all females that would be married, or are already so; not that i suppose their sex more faulty than the other, and most to want advice, for i assure [women], upon my honour, i believe the quite contrary; but the reason is, because i esteem them better disposed to receive and practice it, and therefore am willing to begin, where i may promise myself the best success." this statement from franklin's "rules and maxims for promoting matrimonial happiness" best demonstrates his use of criticism to argue his point his use of common sense to appeal to women his use of flattery to gain women's attention his use of facts to prove his point

Read this excerpt from "the light of gandhi's lamp" by hilary kromberg inglis, in which she describes driving to the police station where her sister is being detained. to avoid looking at the blackened windows at the top of the building and thinking about the history of who had died or been tortured there, i always looked instead at the little chinese restaurant on the opposite side of the road. how does this passage affect the text? it conveys, with great subtlety, the conflict she felt over having a sister who would break the law and end up in the custody of the police. it conveys, without any implied moral judgment, that those who fought against apartheid considered themselves to be soldiers in a just war. it conveys, with an extended metaphor, the idea that being detained by the police in this society was regarded as a badge of honor. it conveys, with direct language, the view held by many anti-apartheid activists that the police often acted in brutal and unlawful ways.
