Which statement best evaluates the author's response to the counterclaim that because antibiotics have proven effective in many situations, prescribing an antibiotic is a sound first step for doctors?
a. It is effective because the author cites and explains a statistic to illustrate that even though antibiotics work in some situations, they are still often not prescribed correctly.
b. It is effective because the author uses an emotional personal anecdote, which gives her credibility and supports the idea that antibiotics are not always effective.
c. It is ineffective because the author relies heavily on a personal anecdote as opposed to facts and statistics that refute the opposing claim.
d. It is ineffective because the author includes a statistic, but the statistic does not directly support the assertion that prescribing an antibiotic is often the best course of action.

Read the excerpt from ernest hemingway’s “soldier's home.” his father was in the real estate business and always wanted the car to be at his command when he required it to take clients out into the country to show them a piece of farm property. the car always stood outside the first national bank building where his father had an office on the second floor. now, after the war, it was still the same car. nothing was changed in the town except that the young girls had grown up. how does hemingway’s description of the town as unchanged impact the readers’ perception of krebs? it emphasizes that while the town has remained the same, krebs has changed. it illustrates that krebs despises the town he grew up in because it is boring. it demonstrates that krebs views himself as similar to the other soldiers from his town. it reveals that krebs is jealous of those who were able to stay in town and avoid the war.
