2 PART B: Which section from the text best supports the answer to PartA?
A "That makes no difference, Lengel tells her, and I could
see from the way his eyes went that he hadn't noticed she
was wearing a two-piece before. 'We want you decently
dressed when you come in here." ( Paragraph 17)
OB. "It's our policy. He turns his back. That's policy for you.
Policy is what the kingpins want. What the others want is
juvenile delinquency." ( Paragraph 19)
OC "They keep right on going into the electric eye; the door
flies open and they flicker across the lot to their car,
Queenie and Plaid and Big Tall Goony-Goony (not that as
raw material she was so bad), leaving me with Lengel and a
kink in his eyebrow." ( Paragraph 22)
OD "You'll feel this for the rest of your life. Lengel says, and I
know that's true, too, but remembering how he made that
pretty girl blush makes me so scrunchy inside I punch the
No Sale tab and the machine whirs 'pee-pul' and the
drawer splats out." ( Paragraph 31)

Read this passage: many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes. but plastic is not very strong. it must be fused with glass or steel for strength. it is also not very durable. even the strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. the biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not decompose. while plastic can be recycled, doing so is tedious and difficult. while it may be more expensive and difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger building material with far greater tensile strength. it conducts electricity because it is metal. best of all, aluminum is very easy to recycle. even if it is thrown away, it decomposes much more quickly than most manufacturing materials. how does the compare-and-contrast organizational pattern of the passage support the author's purpose? a. the passage gradually leads up to the point about decomposition to inform the reader about the importance of recycling plastics. b. the passage lists the advantages and disadvantages of each material to make a case for the use of plastic and not aluminum in containers. c. the passage begins with a description of plastic's problems in order to call attention to the good qualities of aluminum. d. the passage shows the superiority of aluminum in order to make a case for the production of stronger plastics.
