Read the following informational paragraph.
There are several different ways that people can reduce energy consumption at home or at work. Leaving devices like tablets or smartphones plugged in all the time can cause a slow drain on power, as well as affecting the ability of the batteries to keep a
charge. Leaving a television turned on when you're not in a room can also create large amounts of energy consumption over the
course of a year. My older sister leaves her television on all the time while she is at work or school even though she complains about her electricity bills. Another way to save power is to deactivate automatic ice makers that come standard in many
refrigerators and use ice trays instead. Keeping appliances like blenders and microwaves plugged in also causes a steady drain on power, because it automatically keeps the circuit active, even if it's not being used often. Small efforts can add up to big savings and a positive impact on the environment as a whole. Which of the following sentences should be eliminated from the paragraph in order to maintain focus on its central point?
A
Leaving devices like tablets or smartphones plugged in all the time can cause a slow drain on power, as well as affecting the ability of the batteries to keep a charge.

Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai and then answer the question.

Eleven eyes. When at last he dared to look up, what he noticed was their eyes. Each pair a different color: green as a stormy sea, blue as the sky, black as night, or brown as his own. One man had only one eye, and that one as gray as a cloudy day. The other eye was covered with a patch.

There did not seem to be any tails, horns, or fangs among them. There were some alarmingly hairy faces and plenty of big noses, though!

Six big noses, in fact: one long and hooked, two long and straight, one squashed and wide, one turned up at the end, and another as big and red as a radish.
