Read the passage carefully and then choose the correct answer. 17. by the term water-vapour, or aqueous vapour, is meant the invisible steam always present in the air. every one is familiar with the fact, that when water is heated it passes into an invisible vapour or gas, which becomes dissolved in the air. a vessel of water, for instance, may be placed on a table in the middle of a room, heated by means of a spirit lamp till it boils, and kept boiling till the water is entirely driven off into vapour or evaporated. the air in the room shows no visible change, though it has had all this water-vapour added to it. but it may be easily made to yield back some of the vapour. let an ice-cold piece of glass, metal, or other solid substance be brought into the room. though perfectly dry before, its surface instantly grows dim and damp. and if it is large and thick enough to require some minutes to get as warm as the air in the room, the dimness or mist on its surface will pass into trickling drops of water. the air is chilled by the cold glass, and gives up some of its moisture. cold air cannot retain so much diffused vapour as warm air, so that the capacity of the air for vapour is regulated by its temperature.

which of the following is an example of a signal word?

a) vapour
b) damp
c) but
d) require

im pretty sure its b ?

Read the claim. human bodies have developed over time to support a vegetarian diet. which sentence provides the best supporting evidence for the claim? because humans have evolved over millions of years, it makes sense that our diet has evolved as well. i can feel the negative effects of meat and its excess vitamins when i consume meat products. the length of human intestines is better suited to digest food derived from plants than to digest meat. human taste buds have matured throughout history in a way that makes people crave the flavor of meat.

Ineed . read the passage, and choose the two (2) inferences that are most firmly based on the given information. although lie detector tests are based on a sound principle, they are not alwaysaccurate. the test is based on the fact that people become emotionally “stirred up”when they lie. the lie detector can sense physical changes that accompany suchemotional responses. but an innocent person may react emotionally to a keyquestion.thus, he or she appears to be lying when actually telling the truth. and criminals who lie often may feel no guilt about anything. they can therefore tell huge lies without showing the slightest emotional ripple on the lie detector. without an emotional response, there are no physical responses to detect. 1. criminals never feel any guilt about their crimes. 2. lie detector tests are not foolproof. 3. anyone can easily fool the lie-detector machine. 4. an emotional response by an innocent person
