TRUE OR FALSE???

A writer is working on a research paper in which she argues that it’s important to be careful when consuming coconut oil and other coconut-based products. One of the paragraphs in her paper reads:

According to a 2018 New York Times article, “Coconut oil’s image has gotten a makeover in recent years, and many natural food stores stock the product. But despite ‘a lot of hype about it,’ said Dr. Alice H. Lichtenstein, a Tufts University professor of nutrition science and policy who is vice chair of the federal government’s dietary guidelines advisory committee, ‘there’s virtually no data to support the hype’” (Rabin). According to a CNN news report discussing coconut oil, “Health organizations tend to discourage the use of coconut oil, which is more than 80% saturated fat. The American Health Association says it’s better on your skin than in your food, and it recommends that no more than 5% or 6% of your daily calories come from saturated fats—about 13 grams per day. The association also advocates replacing coconut oil with ‘healthy fats’ such as polyunsaturated fats and monounsaturated fats, like those found in canola and olive oils, avocados and fatty fish” (Drayer, et. al). Additionally, “Like other oils, coconut oil is calorie-dense, which means consuming large amounts without reducing other calorie sources can lead to weight gain. Just one tablespoon has 120 calories, about the same as a large apple or four cups of air-popped popcorn” (Drayer, et. al).

This paragraph effectively relates the writer’s source material to her own ideas about coconut oil.

Read this passage from Dragonwings by Laurence Yep.

The demon was a big, cheerful-looking demon with a bland, round face. He eyed father. "I dunno, John." Many demons called Tang men John because, they insisted, they never could get the hang of our real names. "You know anything about horselesses?"

"Some," Father said. Truth to tell, he had never handled a horseless carriage in his life, though he had a book on them and cut out articles whenever they appeared in the demon magazines and newspapers. That was the extent of Father's knowledge. But to know facts is nothing. He had an intuitive feeling for what made the horseless carriages tick. He looked around inside the engine for about ten minutes and then wiped his face absentmindedly, so that the grease stained his cheek. He did not even notice.
