New research identifies cracks over the moon's crust that may have been created by the cooling and shrinking over the past billion or so years. Scientists have discovered landforms littered across the moon's surface called lobate scarps that have apparently resulted from the moon's shrinking very slowly. These scarps were found all over the moon and appear to be minimally weathered, indicating that the geologic events that created them were fairly recent. This theory contradicts the claim that the moon is completely devoid of geologic activity.

Which detail from the passage supports the claim that playing video games is advantageous? A. Following this innovation, video games flourished. B. On top of that, teens use the games to socialize with other people their age. C. The critics consider video games to be like television. D. They could amuse children and adults for hours with their different stages that have varying levels of difficulty.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The the word 'advantageous' is a throw off, it just means whichever point gives someone an advantage.
B explains simply that teens get something out of it, in this case socializing with other teens their age.
You have to look at the phrasing of language used, like for example, 'that playing video games is advantageous', implies that the person who is gaining the advantage is the person playing the games, not critics or the video games themselves, which rules out options A and C.
But on another note, it could also be D because the act of playing games can mean others who are not playing it profit from it, such as the parents and young people.
But I would put B down and complain to whoever had set the question about how vague it is. Haha.
I hope this helps. :)

Semicolon (;) or Colon (:)?
Answer:
Semicolon (;)
Explanation:
The colon can used for listing things. For example, "I need these things for school: a pencil, a notebook, a binder, and a folder. The semicolon, however, can be used to combine two sentences that can stand on its own. For example, "Bring some money with you; we are going to Panda Express today." So, the correct answer would be a semicolon.

Under which of the following headings is the author most likely to present the problem threatening reefs?
BENEATH THE AZURE WATERS LIES A LOST COLONY
UNDERWATER WONDERS
REEFS IN PERIL
THE FUTURE OF THE REEFS
Answer:
Option C, REEFS IN PERIL
Explanation:
Peril word signifies threat or immediate danger.
Since the reefs are under threat of extinction. The best heading that can justify the endangered reef species is the "option C" i.e Reef in Peril.
However, the other heading like THE FUTURE OF THE REEFS, BENEATH THE AZURE WATERS LIES A LOST COLONY etc. are also apt but one would not be able to understand that here the author is talking about the reef in danger.

what should we /should not do during the flood?
Answer:
There’s no telling how deep that water can be when a street gets flooded, so don’t ever risk it. Also, remember that people with families have to come rescue you if you’re stuck in floodwaters, so don’t create a life-threatening situation for yourself or others.
DON’T…
2. Don't Use electricity in a flooded home.
3. Don't Get in the flood water.
4. Don't Handle wild animals in the flood water.
It’s always best to leave wildlife alone in a flood event. Strays could carry disease and may become aggressive. This situation is unfamiliar to humans, so imagine how much this is disturbing the wildlife.
5. Don't Ignore flood warnings
6. Don't Neglect to assemble a flood safety kit.
7. Don't Leave utilities on and plugged in when you evacuate.
8.Don't Dress improperly.
Remember, flood water is dirty and filled with germs. Wear the right clothing if you’re forced to interact with it. Waders are great; shorts and t-shirts are not.
9. Don't Leave furniture and important belongings on the lowest level of your home or outside.
Explanation:
We should be aware of flash flooding. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.
Listen to local radio or television stations for up-to-date information.
Be aware of streams, drainage channels, canyons, and other areas known to flood suddenly. Flash floods can occur in these areas with or without such typical warning signs as rain clouds or heavy rain. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.
If local authorities issue a flood watch, prepare to evacuate:
Secure your lodgings. If you have time, tie down or bring outdoor equipment and lawn furniture inside. Move essential items to the upper floors.
If instructed, turn off utilities at the main switches or valves. Disconnect electrical appliances. Do not touch electrical equipment if you are wet or standing in water.
Fill the bathtub with water in case water becomes contaminated or services cut off. Before filling the tub, sterilize it with a diluted bleach solution (one part bleach to 10 parts water).
Do not walk through moving water. Six inches (15 cm) of moving water can knock you off your feet. If you must walk in a flooded area, walk where the water is not moving. Use a stick or pole to check the firmness of the ground in front of you.
Do not drive into flooded areas. Six inches (15 cm) of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars causing loss of control and possible stalling. A foot (30 cm) of water will float many vehicles. Two feet (60 cm) of water can carry away most vehicles, including sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and pickups.
If floodwaters rise around your car, abandon the car and move to higher ground, if you can do so safely. You and your vehicle can be quickly swept away as floodwaters rise.

Find the plural or possessive error. Select it and type it correctly. A star's gases' can burn for a long time
Answer:
A star's gases' can burn for a long time
Explanation:
The word marked in bold in the sentence above is the word that has an error. The correct thing would be to write the word "gases" without using the apostrophe (') after the last "S", since the apostrophe is used to cause the impression of possession and it has already been used, correctly in the word "Star's".
