What evidence does Minow give in this speech that television is a "vast wasteland"? A) It is too preachy. B) There is not enough news C) There are too few commercials D) The programming is unimaginative.

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented from "Television and the Public Interest," Newton N. Minow who was a chairman of the Federal Communications Commission from 1961 to 1963 claims television lacks value or is useless and because of this television needs to change. For doing this Minow invites the audience to sit in front of the television during one day and then Minow lists the type of programs and contents the audience would find including  game shows, comedies that are not real, violence, western characters, cartoons and multiple commercials, besides this he remarks there is  little content that the audience really enjoys and that can have a positive effect on the population including children who can only find cartoons and violence but no educative content. Thus, Newton N. Minow explains the audience television lacks value by inviting them to watch the content of it and by listing the content the audience would most likely find showing the audience most of the content is inappropriate, boring and does not contribute to the population in any way.

I do hope I helped you, sir! :)

the word that best matches the meaning of the expression "went to the big ocean" is died.

the goldfish died, which is why the father looks at the children mournfully. the "big ocean" is the father's way of saying fish heaven. he could have just said that the goldfish died, but this way, the children imagine the fish in a bigger, better place instead of just picturing a dead fish.

answer: inference

explanation:

an inference can be understood as a conclusion to which a person is able to get based on reasoning. it is the same as a deduction, a guess, an assumption.   in the sentence presented, the conjunction "but" gives the readers an idea of contrast, and, therefore, allows them to induce that despite the opponent's characteristics, andrea had something different that made her win.
