Which sentence best states the central idea of the passage? Juno
adapted from NASA
Juno is a NASA spacecraft that is orbiting Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system. Juno launched in 2011 and arrived at Jupiter in 2016.
Juno is an orbiter. Orbiters fly around, or orbit, other bodies in space to study them. Orbiters circle above the atmosphere of planets. Juno will
be in polar orbit for about 20 months. Juno's first orbit will last 53.5 days. This long orbit allows the spacecraft to slow down and be captured in
the planet's gravity. Then Juno begins Its 14-day science orbits. During the science orbits, all of the spacecraft's science Instruments are on, and
Juno is capturing data. Juno will orbit Jupiter 37 times, coming within 4,200 kilometers (2,600 miles) of the tops of the planet's clouds. At the end
of its 37th revolution around the planet, the orbiter will deorbit. The spacecraft will dive into Jupiter's atmosphere and burn up.
Science Instruments on board Juno study Jupiter's atmosphere, magnetic field, and gravitational field. Juno is measuring the amount of water
and ammonia in Jupiter's atmosphere to help scientists learn how giant planets formed. Juno is studying Jupiter's atmosphere under the clouds
to find what Jupiter is made of. By mapping Jupiter's gravitational and magnetic fields, Juno can determine the mass of Jupiter's core.

In which part of this excerpt from the gettysburg address does president abraham lincoln argue that the outcome of the war will depend on the determination and loyalty of northern citizens? four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. we are met on a great battle-field of that war. we have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. but, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow— this ground. the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. it is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us— that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under god, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Part a: which of the following captures how foreign residents, or xenoi, regarded their status or position in ancient greek society? a. while some city-states discouraged immigration, most ancient greek societies allowed foreign residents partial citizenship, the most that foreigners could hope to attain. b. the majority of foreign residents felt unsafe in ancient greek society, as they were almost always expelled or killed if caught; this is because ancient greeks considered themselves superior to many if not all other civilizations. c. while their rights were limited and their relationship with locals shaky, metics had the opportunity of social mobility and full citizenship status, for either themselves or their children. d. the xenoi saw themselves as advanced and providing new services to greek society, as they often brought with them new skills, like pottery. part b: which of the following quotes best supports the answer to part a? a. “greeks persuaded themselves that it was they who had the best environment and characteristics and the purest blood line and were, therefore, born to rule.”(paragraph 11)b. “aside from slaves, most greek poleis would have had a number of free foreigners (xenoi) who had chosen to re-locate from other areas of greece, the mediterranean, and the near east, bringing with them skills such as pottery and metalworking.” (paragraph 16)c. “despite the suspicions and prejudices against foreign “barbarians” which often crop up in literary sources, there were cases when metoikoi did manage to become full citizens after a suitable display of loyalty and contribution to the good of the host state.” (paragraph 16)d. “however, some states, notably sparta, at times actively discouragedimmigration or periodically expelled xenoi.” (paragraph 16)
