Asked by Annomous

Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays.
Solar energy saves money on electric bills, and it also helps our power grid. On August 14, 2003, too many people were using electricity because it was a hot day. Suddenly, all the power went out across the Northeast United States and Canada, and 55 million people were suddenly in the dark! In New York City, people had to walk miles across bridges to get home because there were no trains or subways running. It was an expensive incident for the government and industry. But if we use more solar energy, we will put less pressure on the power grid. That means fewer blackouts.

What kind of evidence does the author use to support the claim that solar energy helps the power grid? (1 point)

A. anecdotal <------------------------ Is it A?
B. expert quotation
C. statistical
D. scientific

Pls help me! I don't have too long.
Answered by Randomized
Yes, Annomous. The answer is A, anecdotal.
Answered by Randomized
Do you need help with another question??
Answered by Annomous
Actually I do! Thx Randomized! Here it is:
Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays.

But there is another benefit: switching to renewable energy can create jobs. One environmental group says solar power could mean hundreds of thousands of jobs in the United States. For example, the largest solar farm on the East Coast in New York created more than 200 local construction jobs. And the farm makes enough electricity each year to power 4,500 homes!


Why does the evidence provided in the excerpt make the author's argument more effective?

It is vague.
It is specific.
It is complicated.
It is scientific.
Answered by Randomized
Hmm... I'll be back in one minute.
Answered by Randomized
It is most likely B or D, specific or scientific.
Answered by Randomized
I recommended looking onto other websites to see if they have the answer.
Answered by Annomous
Oh! Ok thank you Randomized!
Answered by Annomous
I have another Q if you have time:
How does the author reveal the narrator's perspective in Shania's Diary?
a by having Shania share her thoughts and feelings
b by describing how Shania’s face looks when she talks
c by including conversations between Shania and Uriel
d by describing what Shania looks like
Answered by Randomized
Well, I haven't read the story... Do you know what perspective it is in?
Answered by Annomous
I think it is in first person?
Answered by Randomized
Ah. I see. Then the answer could be A.
Answered by Annomous
Ok! Thx, Randomized! You have been soooo helpful!
Answered by Randomized

Answered by Annomous
I appreciate ALL of your help, Randomized, but I have one more question if anyone's here!
Answered by Noob
I think Randomized left, but I'm here!
Answered by Noob
What's you question?
Answered by Annomous
Sorry that took so long!
Which best describes a legend?
Answered by Noob
What are your answers? I need to choose one.
Answered by Noob
a story that takes place in an imaginary world set far into the future
a story that is passed down orally from one generation to the next
a story about the life experiences of a famous person from history
a story about made-up characters who struggle with modern problems
Answered by Noob
B is right. A story passed down orally (by talking) from one generation to the next.
Answered by Noob
The EXACT definition of legend: a traditional story sometimes popularly regarded as historical but unauthenticated.
Answered by Noob
Just if you need help!

The first is done! If you have any loyalty, to Jiskha, do it for experiment's sake UP-VOTE IT!
Answered by 🐶
Also, everyone! I figured out the answer to the second question Annomous asked! The answer is Specific! This is because instead of sciencey words, they have specific numbers and places.
Hope this helps you!
