PLZ HELP I WILL GIVE TO THE CORRECT ANSWER Read the following excerpt from a research report about the uses of mushrooms and think about what information should be included in an oral presentation about the same topic.

The spores of various insect-killing fungi can be used to fight some of the pests that destroy food and lumber crops. For example, avocado orchards in Florida and California were threatened by ambrosia beetles, insects that build tunnels into avocado trees, introducing a disease that could kill the tree. To respond to this potential crisis, the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) tested a foam that had been used to kill termites living deep inside trees. The results of this preliminary research were reported by the USDA in the article "Beneficial Fungi Examined for Battle Against Destructive Beetles." The foam, which contains the spores of an insect-killing fungus, has provided promising results—more than 95 percent of beetles exposed to the fungi died.

How would you adapt this information for a speech?

a. Keep only the first sentence.
b. Focus on the effectiveness of the foam made with fungal spores.
c. Skip this part because it’s not important.
d. Provide more information about the importance of the avocado crop.

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of the prince. there are, for example, the spartans and the romans. the spartans held athens and thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. the romans, in order to hold capua, carthage, and numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. they wished to hold greece as the spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. so to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. and he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. and whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the florentines. what idea is stressed in the passage? the desire for liberty the establishment of an oligarchy the dismantling of an acquired state the tendency toward rebellion
