4)) Saving Sea Turtles used around the world. One of the unfortunate side effects of this method is that sea turtles, which are considered threatened, get caught in the nets along with the fish. Conservation biologists at the University of Exeter in England recently devised a way to prevent these sea turtle deaths, which they tested at a fishery in northern Peru. They found that attaching green LED lights to the nets warned the turtles away, possibly because the lights made the nets more visible. The number of sea turtle deaths was reduced, but the number of fish caught seemed to remain the same. What is the main, or central, idea of the passage? To prevent turtles from becoming caught in fishing nets, conservation biologists attached LED lights to the nets. Conservation biologists are researching ways to save the threatened sea turtle population. One problem with small-catch fishing is that sea turtles get caught along with fish.

4)) Read the passage. 4)) As Shane Loeffer, a geology student at the University of Minnesota, was flying home from Europe, he looked down at the landscape and began to wonder what he was flying over. He realized that a plane flight would be a good opportunity for people to learn about the geological features of the earth below them. As a result of this experience, with a grant from the National Science Foundation, he created a free app called Flyover Country. The app provides users with information on natural formations, man-made features like dams, and even where fossils can be found. The features are pinpointed on a map that corresponds to the landscape below the plane. (1)) What is the main, or central, idea of the passage? Shane Loeffer's plane flight home from Europe led him to think about the geological features of the land below him. Shane Loeffler's experience in a plane led him to create an app that would provide information to flyers about the land below them. Submit

1)) Read the passage. 4)) Carrots contain high amounts of vitamin A and are good for general eye health. However, carrots will not improve night vision. That myth goes back to British propaganda during World War II. In 1940, the German Luftwaffe, or air force, began bombing Britain at night. In response, the British government ordered people to turn off their lights; the government wanted to make it difficult for German pilots to hit their targets. A new technology, radar, allowed the British air force to track and shoot down th German planes without light. To keep the technology secret, the government told the media that their pilots could see the German planes because they consumed so many carrots. Consequently, people began to believe that eating carrots would help them see better in the dark. What is the main, or central, idea of the passage? During World War II, the British government told the media that their pilots ate a lot of carrots. Because of a British media campaign, people thought that eating carrots would improve their night vision.

Read the passage. Student Designs Vietnam Veterans Memorial Maya Lin was an architecture student at Yale University when she completed a special class assignment-a monument to veterans of the Vietnam War.

Most of the other entrants were trained architects, whereas Lin hadn't yet completed her degree in architecture. Yet Lin's design took first place, earning her \( \$ 20,000 \) in prize money. She later wrote, "From the very beginning I often wondered, if it had not been an anonymous entry . . . but rather an entry by Maya Lin, would I have been selected?"

Maya Lin's design won first prize in a competition and went on to become the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

4)) Read the passage. 4)) William Shakespeare is widely credited with adding more than 1,700 new words to the English language in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Yet some scholars question that estimate, suggesting that some of the "new" words credited to Shakespeare may have already been in use when he incorporated them into his plays. So if Shakespeare didn't radically change the English language, then who did? According to some language experts, young women, rather than men, are actually responsible for inventing most new words. Two linguists at the University of Helsinki in Finland analyzed six thousand letters written between 1417 and 1681 . They found that female letter writers changed the way they wrote more often than their male counterparts. One reason could be that women often have more social connections than men, and social connections allow people to introduce each other to new uses of words. 4)) What is the main, or central, idea of the passage? Recent research suggests that the language changes that occurred in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries owed a great deal to female letter writers. Shakespeare is often credited with adding many new words to the English language.

4)) Read the passage. 4)) Boris Pasternak's 1956 novel Doctor Zhivago tells the story of a Russian doctor living at the time of the 1917 Russian Revolution, which led to the establishment of the Soviet Union.
