As Marcus scanned the jewelry cases, his eyes came to rest on an intricately wound necklace. The chain was delicate silver strands, fine as hair, woven together in a subtle, beautiful pattern. Hanging from the chain shimmered a spiral, also made of exquisitely thin silver threads, and
arranged in the center were several small lustrous onyx stones. He was stunned at the meticulous craftsmanship that must have been required to
fashion such a painstaking work. The artisanship of its maker was clearly unequaled. He knew instinctively that his mother would love it.
Tim read this paragraph. When he came across the word meticulous, he decided it must mean "amazing."
Is Tim's understanding of meticulous correct?
01. No, because the passage indicates that "meticulous" is used to describe very tiny objects.
O2. No, because the context explains that the necklace was made with great attention to detail.
O 3. Yes, because most of the passage is describing how fantastic Marcus thinks the necklace is.
4. Yes, because most of the passage gives details about how Marcus admires objects of amazing quality.

Which excerpt from tinker v. des moines shows how precedent support an argument? a. "as we shall discuss, the wearing of armbands in the circumstances of this case was entirely divorced from actually or potentially disruptive conduct by those participating in it. it was closely akin to 'pure speech' which, we have repeatedly held, is entitled to comprehensive protection under the first amendment. cf. cox v. louisiana, 379 u. s. 536, 555 (1965); adderley v. florida, 385 u. s. 39 (1966)." b. "while the absence of obscene remarks or boisterous and loud disorder perhaps justifies the court's statement that the few armband students did not actually 'disrupt' the classwork, i think the record overwhelmingly shows that the armbands did exactly what the elected school officials and principals foresaw they would." c. "i, for one, am not fully persuaded that school pupils are wise enough, even with this court's expert from washington, to run the 23,390 public school systems [n4] in our 50 states." d. "under our constitution, free speech is not a right that is given only to be so circumscribed that it exists in principle, but not in fact. freedom of expression would not truly exist if the right could be exercised only in an area that a benevolent government has provided as a safe haven for crackpots."

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.
