Read the excerpt from "Early Victorian Tea Set.” But a loving, tranquil cup of tea has a violent hinterland. When all tea came into Europe from China, the British East India Company traded opium for silver and used that silver to buy tea. The trade was so important that it brought the two countries to war. The first of the conflicts, which we still refer to as the Opium Wars – they were in fact just as much about tea – broke out more or less as our teapot was leaving the Wedgwood factory. Partly because of these difficulties with China, in the 1830s the British set up plantations in the area around Calcutta and Indian tea was exempted from import duty to encourage demand. What is the author’s viewpoint in this excerpt? England’s demand for tea encouraged international cooperation. England’s demand for tea caused conflict around the world. Britain planted tea in China because Britain was at war with India. Britain traded silver to buy tea, which resulted in high taxes.

Answer:

B. England's demand for tea caused conflict around the world.

Sunscreen is a hot topic every summer. Dermatologists recommend wearing it every day to protect your skin from solar radiation. But skeptics say it can cause more harm than good by exposing you to dangerous chemicals and causing Vitamin D deficiency. There are two good reasons to wear sunscreen: to protect your health, and to protect your looks. Excessive exposure to sunlight can cause skin cancer. Over time, it also makes skin saggy and wrinkled. Numerous studies have shown that regular use of sunscreen reduces the occurrence of skin cancer, and also keeps skin smoother and more elastic. In contrast, there is little evidence that sunscreens currently on the market contain ingredients that are harmful when absorbed. It doesn’t take much sunlight to produce all the Vitamin D needed for good health, either. Which of the options below is the most effective conclusion to the essay? Dermatologists recommend wearing sunscreen every day to protect your skin from the sun’s radiation, although some skeptics worry about exposure to dangerous chemicals and Vitamin D deficiency. Many studies have shown that regular use of sunscreen is good for you. There is little evidence it is harmful. In closing, the evidence for wearing sunscreen is clear and bright, while the arguments against it are partly cloudy at best. Use it every day, and your skin will look and be healthy. Walt Whitman said, “Keep your face always toward the sunshine – and shadows will fall behind you.” Easy to for him say when he always wore a thick beard and big hat, but everyone else should either seek out those shadows or put on some sunscreen. Poetry can soothe your soul, but only sunscreen will protect your skin. Sunscreens work in two ways. Some use minerals to form a physical barrier that reflects radiation away from your skin. Others include chemical compounds that absorb the sunlight before your skin does. When used properly, both types of sunscreen can protect your skin from damage.

But the specter of delivering a speech brown-nosing the teachers jammed her imagination. At first, she didn't want to, and then she couldn't seem to write that speech. She should have thought of it as "a great honor," as her father called it. But she was mortified. She still had a slight accent, and she did not like to speak in public, subjecting herself to her classmates' ridicule. It also took no great figuring to see that to deliver a eulogy for a convent full of crazy, old, overweight nuns was no way to endear herself to her peers
