Africanized honey bees were created in Brazil in 1957. Scientists mixed local bees with African ones to create a bee that would make more honey. They ended up with something much different. The new bees evolved in unexpected ways. They multiplied and migrated north. These Africanized honeybees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons.

Killer bees are far more aggressive than their relatives. They have been known to attack in great numbers, even when there has been no direct threat on their hives. They have swarmed because of loud noises, dark clothing, bright jewelry, and even strong perfume. They will chase a person for more than a quarter of a mile and remain angered for up to 24 hours.

Killer bees are also dangerous because of their sting. While most bees take up to 30 seconds to attack, killer bees sting in just 3 seconds. Their venom is no stronger than a regular bee's, but when one killer bee stings, others follow. With up to 80,000 members in a colony, victims are quickly overwhelmed. So many stings in such a short time can cause allergic reactions. Victims enter a state of shock, lose blood pressure, and in many cases, die.

A final reason why "killer" has been added to their name is the unfortunate number of deaths they have caused. Experts estimate that the Africanized honeybee moves at a rate of about 200 miles each year. As the bees claim new territory, they claim new victims as well. More than 1000 people have been stung to death in South and Central America. There have been rising numbers of attacks in Mexico and a handful in the United States. Once a swarm sets sights on a victim, it is very difficult for the victim to escape. Once attacked, it is very difficult to survive.

Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted. Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously. It is good practice to call a professional to remove beehives in your area. If you are stung multiple times by any insect, you should always seek medical attention. You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Which sentence from the conclusion paragraph best rephrases the author's thesis?
a)Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted.

b)Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously.

c)You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart.

d)It is better to be safe than sorry.

Read the two sentences from the section "CON: Binge-watching leads to mental-health issues."

A University of Texas study found that binge-watchers were more likely to be depressed, lonely and have less self-control than those who do not binge-watch.

Another study found that, rather than relieving stress, binge-watching actually worsened stressful feelings like regret, guilt and personal failure, because of a sense of wasted time and inactivity.

How do these sentences develop the debate about binge-watching in the article?


A)The sentences provide firsthand testimony to support the idea that binge-watching is harmful to viewers' social and emotional health.

B)Both sentences directly contradict earlier claims about the possible social and emotional benefits of binge-watching.

C)The sentences illustrate the contradictory emotions that binge-watching often causes in those who do it frequently.

D)Both sentences describe experts' opinions about the positive social and emotional consequences of frequent binge-watching.

What verb tense is used in the sentence ‘Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them’ from the reading paragraph?

Read this excerpt from Dean Kamen's "On Becoming an Inventor."

I had just finished making a complicated piece of equipment that was to be used for a show opening in Philadelphia called "Fiorello." When the machine arrived they had trouble wiring it, so instead of going off to college that morning for orientation, I spent several days at the theatre fixing my light/sound equipment. The show received poor reviews, except for the mention by one reviewer of the "special effects," which, he wrote, were "outstanding."

How do writing shape readers' impressions?

Kamen's opinion seems to be that machines are more important than anything else. He supports this with an example of his work on a machine for a show in Philadelphia. His tone is formal and directed at a scholarly audience.

Kamen’s opinion seems to be that hard work can overcome any obstacles. He supports this with an example of hard work on a light machine. His tone is humorous and directed at a young audience.

Kamen’s opinion seems to be that his inventions are more important to him than other activities. He supports this by sharing an example of skipping college orientation to fix sound equipment. His tone is informal and directed at a general audience.

Kamen's opinion seems to be that special effects can make a show outstanding. He supports this with an example of his own special effects machine. His tone is formal and directed at a scientific audience.
