Answer:
B. The competition between Cope and Marsh pushed each man to make amazing discoveries.
Explanation:
A paleontologist refers to an expert (individual) who is saddled with the responsibility of studying the various forms of life that were in existence during geologic or prehistoric ages through the use of fossils.
We know that influence is a function of how much power a person has to affect, control or manipulate another person so as to cause a change in the person's action or activity.
Hence, the sentence which best describes how two paleontologists influenced each other is; the competition between Cope and Marsh pushed each man to make amazing discoveries.

Excerpt from Stuff Matters
By Mark Miodownik
In the absence of copper, gold, and meteoric iron, our ancestors’ tools during the Stone Age were made of flint, wood, and bone. Anyone who has ever tried to make anything with these kinds of tools knows how limiting they are: if you hit a piece of wood it either splinters, cracks, or snaps. The same is true of rock or bone. Metals are fundamentally different from these other materials because they can be hammered into shape: they flow, they are malleable. Not only that, they get stronger when you hit them; you can harden a blade just by hammering it. And you can reverse the process simply by putting metal in a fire and heating it up, which will cause it to get softer. The first people to discover these properties ten thousand years ago had found a material that was almost as hard as a rock but behaved like a plastic and was almost infinitely reusable. In other words, they had discovered the perfect material for tools, and in particular cutting tools like axes, chisels, and razors. This ability of metals to transform from a soft to a hard material must have seemed like magic to our ancient ancestors.
***
In 1961 Professor Richmond from Oxford University discovered a pit that had been dug by the Romans in AD 89. It contained 763,840 small two-inch nails, 85,128 medium nails, 25,088 large nails, and 1,344 extra-large sixteen-inch nails. The hoard was of iron and steel and not gold, which most people would have found bitterly disappointing. But not Professor Richmond. Why, he asked himself, would a Roman legion bury seven tons of iron and steel? The legion had been occupying the advance headquarters of Agricola in a place called Inchtuthil in Scotland. This was at the outer reaches of the Roman Empire, and their mission was to protect its border from what they saw as the savage tribes who threatened it: the Celts. The legion of five thousand men occupied the region for six years before retreating and, in the process, abandoning their fort. They made great efforts to leave behind nothing that could help their enemies. They smashed all food and drink containers and burned the fort to the ground. But they weren’t satisfied with this. In the ashes were the steel nails that had held the fort together, and they were far too valuable to be left to the tribes that had driven them out. Iron and steel were the materials that enabled the Romans to build aqueducts, ships, and swords; they allowed them to engineer an empire. Leaving the nails to their enemies would have been as useful as leaving a cache of weapons, so they buried them in a pit before marching south.
The author uses a simile to compare nails and weapons to –
A) reinforce the danger.
B) show how they took everything.
C) emphasize the value.
D) describe the importance.
Answer:
D) describe the importance.
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from Stuff Matters
by Mark Miodownik, it narrated that the discovery of metals changed the history of mankind. The author discussed how the Romans destroyed everything of value so that the Celts could find nothing useful left behind and even destroyed the nails and irons.
The author uses a simile to compare nails and weapons to describe the importance of the nails to their empire.

The Black Death
A The growing cities of the Middle Ages could be exciting places. However, many were dark, unsafe, and unhealthy. Streets were narrow, crooked, and filthy. There were no streetlights or police. Many people did not go out alone at night for fear of robbers. If people did go out, they often took servants along with them for protection and to carry lanterns or torches to light the way. Waste was dumped into open gutters. All in all, conditions were disgusting. This caused diseases to spread quickly through the crowded cities.
B Beginning in 1347, one such disease, a terrible plague, swept through Europe. The disease was called the Black Death because of the darkened color of its victims’ faces after they died. The plague began in Asia and spread along busy trade routes. Trading ships carried the disease west to the Mediterranean. From the Mediterranean ports, the disease spread throughout most of Europe. Rats on the ships carried the disease. Fleas from the rats spread the disease to people.
C Once people became infected, the disease could be spread from person to person. People became infected as they came in contact with the sick. According to Jean de Venette, a friar who lived at the time, young people were more likely to die than old people. Those who got sick lasted only two or three days and then died suddenly. This happened in such great numbers that often those who lived could not keep up with burying the dead. The friar wrote, “Someone who was healthy one day could be dead and buried the next. . . . A healthy person who visited the sick hardly ever escaped death.”
D No one knows the exact number of plague deaths in Europe. Some guess that about 25 million people died in Europe from 1347 to 1351. This was about one third of the entire population. The death rate varied from place to place. Towns seemed to be harder hit than the countryside. Some entire villages and towns were wiped out. The plague affected the rich as well as the poor. Even the great and powerful, including royalty, were struck down. Throughout Europe, populations were devastated by, as the Welsh called it, “death coming into our midst like black smoke.”
E The Black Death greatly affected Europe. Relations between the upper classes and lower classes changed. Workers, now in short supply, demanded higher wages. In several European countries, peasants staged uprisings. There were emotional effects as well. In some areas, the theme of death appeared in poetry, sculpture, and painting. People’s faith was shaken. The church lost some of its power and importance. The Black Death took a greater toll on human life than any war or illness before that time. It was perhaps the greatest tragedy in all of European history.
It is most likely that disease hit towns harder than the countryside because the towns—
a.
had no police
b.
had more rats
c.
were not lighted
d.
were more crowded

Which of these sentences could be added to the end of the third paragraph (sentences 18-21) to support the ideas in that paragraph?
A. Even on the federal level, it is rare for civil servants to receive time off let alone three entire months for a summer break.
B. This kind of program will also allow teachers to better prepare for curriculum and not have to rush through important concepts and ideas.
C. The summer break not only helps students to do better in schools, it ultimately helps the economy as travel increases during the summer.
D. In the real world, most people only receive a limited number of days for vacation as well as a set number of sick days and personal time-off days.
This is the paragraph:
(1) As students and teachers, we should both feel lucky to enjoy not only a summer break, but in some cases, a winter break as well. (2) In the working world, summer breaks are a welcomed oasis to a normal working schedule, but they never happen. (3) School is supposed to prepare students for what the "real world" will be like. (4) Why then do most schools still implement the antiquated policy of summer vacation? (5) As students and teachers, don't we also make up the "real world"? (6) The real world works like this: people don't get summers off like they do in school, so summers in school are disingenuous because it does not reflect the "real world" like year-round schools.
(7) For many working citizens, a summer break is a novel idea, but it is impractical. (8) Consider what would happen to a city government that decided to take the summer off. (9) Garbage would pile up. (10) Police stations would close. (11) Fire stations would be empty. (12) Now, imagine doing without one of the many services the city provides for almost three months. (13) The entire city would riot. (14) Yet, aren't public servants also a part of the "real world"? (15) Why don't they get summers off as well? (16) Preparing students for the real world while giving them summers off does not prepare them for the real world. (17) It gives them a false sense of what the real world will be.
(18) Year-round schooling, however, is a more accurate representation of what the true real world is. (19) In a year-round school program, students would go to school Monday through Friday for four months at a time. (20) Students would also get a week's vacation at each quarter interval. (21) In the end, this would better prepare students for what the real world is truly like.

Veneration is to respect as deceit is to honesty
B)
Veneration is to respect as honesty is to innocent.
C)
Veneration is to respect as innocent is to excellent.
D
Veneration is to respect as honesty is to truthfulness.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Veneration is to respect as honesty is to truthfulness. The correct option is D.
What is Veneration?The act of honoring a saint, a person who has been identified as having a high degree of sanctity or holiness, is known as veneration. Angels are revered similarly in many religions.
A deep respect can be defined as veneration. Worship, on the other hand, can be defined as deep reverence for a god or goddess.
The distinction between the two words is that, whereas worship is mostly associated with gods, veneration is not.
By kneeling before the crucifix and obeying it, we honor our Lord's cross as the instrument of our salvation.
Thus, the correct option is D.
