Answer:
Hello. You did not enter the answer options, but the term "previously perused paperbacks" is an euphemism for the term "softcover books" or "flimsy books".
Explanation:
Euphemism is a figure of speech that is used to relieve a term, that is, euphemism allows the author to use a term that softens the sentence and has a milder and more pleasant meaning, to replace another term, which is more aggressive , can cause pelomic and discomfort to the reader.
In this case, we can say that the author uses the term "previously perused paperbacks" as an euphemism when referring to books with a soft, soft and rigid cover.

Benjamin Franklin Fascination with Electricity
adapted from the National Park Service
Benjamin Frankdin was fascinated by electricity and gave a lot of his time after he
retired to study its properties. Some of his research resulted in tricks that he used to
amuse others. For example, he made a charged metal spider that moved like the real
thing He discovered new ways to generate, store, and turn on electricity. His design of
lightning rods helped prevent untold numbers of structural fires throughout the world
His famous de experiment occurred in June 1752. Franklin asked his son William to
fly a kite to which he had attached a wire on top and a key at the end of a string
Ultimately, the kite gathered an electric charge from a storm cloud. Franklin was then
able to collect some of the charge and compare it to the electricity he had created in
other experiments. He did not mention the experiment until October, four months after
it took place at which point Franklin did not clarify that he had conducted the
experiment himself-an issue that has caused some people to doubt Franklin's story. .
Which idea is unsupported by the author's main arguments about Benjamin Franklin accomplishments?
A. Paved the way for theories about electricity
B. never patented
any of his
inventions
C. the only president
who was never
elected president
D. largely self
educated
Answer:
i believe it's a.
Explanation:

compare and contrast the introductory paragraph and the concluding paragraph
In the space provided, compare and contrast the introductory paragraph and the concluding paragraph. How are they similar? How are they different? Include information on the different elements in each paragraph.
Answer:
There are some cautions we want to keep in mind as we fashion our final utterance. First, we don't want to finish with a sentimental flourish that shows we're trying to do too much. It's probably enough that our essay on recycling will slow the growth of the landfill in Hartford's North Meadows. We don't need to claim that recycling our soda bottles is going to save the world for our children's children. (That may be true, in fact, but it's better to claim too little than too much; otherwise, our readers are going to be left with that feeling of "Who's he/she kidding?") The conclusion should contain a definite, positive statement or call to action, but that statement needs to be based on what we have provided in the essay.
Second, the conclusion is no place to bring up new ideas. If a brilliant idea tries to sneak into our final paragraph, we must pluck it out and let it have its own paragraph earlier in the essay. If it doesn't fit the structure or argument of the essay, we will leave it out altogether and let it have its own essay later on. The last thing we want in our conclusion is an excuse for our readers' minds wandering off into some new field. Allowing a peer editor or friend to reread our essay before we hand it in is one way to check this impulse before it ruins our good intentions and hard work.
Never apologize for or otherwise undercut the argument you've made or leave your readers with the sense that "this is just little ol' me talking." Leave your readers with the sense that they've been in the company of someone who knows what he or she is doing. Also, if you promised in the introduction that you were going to cover four points and you covered only two (because you couldn't find enough information or you took too long with the first two or you got tired), don't try to cram those last two points into your final paragraph. The "rush job" will be all too apparent. Instead, revise your introduction or take the time to do justice to these other points.
Here is a brief list of things that you might accomplish in your concluding paragraph(s).* There are certainly other things that you can do, and you certainly don't want to do all these things. They're only suggestions:
include a brief summary of the paper's main points.
ask a provocative question.
use a quotation.
evoke a vivid image.
call for some sort of action.
end with a warning.
universalize (compare to other situations).
suggest results or consequences.

After everyone had gone, my mother said to me. "You want to be the same as American girls on the outside." She handed me an early gift. It was a miniskirt in beige tweed. "But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud you are different. Your only shame is to have shame."And even though I didn't agree with her then, I knew she understood how much I had suffered during the evening's dinner. It wasn't until many years later - long after I had gotten over my crush on Robert - that I was able to fully appreciate her lesson and the true purpose behind our particular menu. For Christmas Eve that year, she had chosen all my favorite foods.
Why does Tan end the essay by telling the reader that her mother had chosen her favorite foods?
to contrast the way Amy feels about the food and the way her mother feels about it
to show that her mother only cares about preserving her Chinese culture
to contrast her own descriptions of the food with how she really feels about the food
to show that her mother is sorry for what she put Amy through

Read this excerpt from "Why Are They Called Black Holes?"
Scientists cannot see gravity, but they can see its effects. The gravity of a black hole will swallow matter and light that drift close enough to it. Some light passing by a black hole can be far enough away that it could avoid being sucked in, but the path of the light would still be bent by gravity.
Astronomers can observe these effects. For example, when a black hole passes through a cloud of dust, it pulls the dust inside it like a big gravity-powered vacuum cleaner. When a star passes too close to a black hole, the black hole pulls it in and breaks up the star, spewing giant flashes of high energy called gamma-ray bursts. And when scientists see light bending even though there is no visible matter nearby, they have evidence that there is an invisible black hole.
What must be present for scientists to detect black holes?
a cloud of dust
a gamma ray burst
the loss of a star
the force of gravity
The answer is option B) a gamma-ray burst.
What must be present for scientists to detect black holes?
The gas molecules in the disk swirl around the black hole so fast that they heat up and emit X-rays. These X-rays can be detected from Earth. Black holes can also be detected by watching for motions of stars near the black hole.
How did scientists find black holes?
The first black hole ever discovered was Cygnus X-1, located within the Milky Way in the constellation of Cygnus, the Swan. Astronomers saw the first signs of the black hole in 1964 when a sounding rocket detected celestial sources of X-rays according to NASA.
