ERMERGENCY PLEASE HELPPP Raindrops Break The Speed Limit Part A: which statement describes the central idea of the text?

A. Scientist have observed some small raindrops falling faster then what was previously calculated to be their top speed.

B. There is no explanation for why raindrops which would exceed the terminal velocities scientists predicted.

C. Scientist are more likely to use the data collected from larger raindrops, rather than smaller raindrops, to make weather predictions.

D. Small raindrops that are able to exceed their predicted terminal velocities likely have something poisonous or unnatural in them.

PART B!!

What detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

A. “That means the drop stops speeding up and keeps falling at a steady rate. This should be the top speed at which a droplet can move.” (Para 2)

B. “Every object falling through the atmosphere, from skydivers to hailstones, has y timbale velocity.” (Para 5)

C. “The small drops might have broken off larger drops in-flight. These may then have continued to fall at the faster speed, he says.” (Para 9)

D. “Francisco Tapiador is a climate scientist. He works at the university of castilla-la mancha in Toledo, Spain. The smaller drops aren’t true ‘rain’ he argues.”

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
