Our school wants to build a chicken coop and raise chickens for a class project. My mom said her mother grew up on a farm with chickens.
She told me a story about when grandmother was little. A chicken chased her around the barnyard. She had to climb a tree to get away from it.
We don't have any trees at our school where these chickens are going to live. So, I don't think this chicken project is a good idea.
How does this student's point of view affect her feelings about the chicken project?
OA. She thinks that chickens should only be raised on farms where there are trees.
OB. She does not understand enough about chickens to have a point of view.
OC. She is not in favor of it because of a story she heard about her grandmother.
OD. She thinks the school should have more trees so they can escape from the chickens.

C. She is not in favor of it because of a story she heard about her grandmother

Explanation:

Its not A. She wants to bring up the point that she does not think that they are a good idea at school, not where she thinks that they should be raised.

Its not B. She does have a pretty good view point on the chickens, from her grandmothers story.

Its not D. She is not talking about why she doesn't talk about that she wants to have trees to escape the chickens, but the story does...

It is C. She doesn't like the idea, because of her grandmothers story.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
