Question

ii. which of the following best describes how the author organized the selection? a. he compared and contrasted the sun with the moon. b. he described different aspects of the sun. c. he explains how the sun was created. d. he provides problems the sun has encountered and gives potential solutions.

Explanation:

To determine the author's organization, analyze each option:

• Option A: Comparing Sun and Moon would involve both, but the question is about organizing the "selection" (likely about the Sun), so A is incorrect.
• Option B: Describing different aspects of the Sun means the author structures the text by covering various features/characteristics of the Sun, which is a common organizational method for informational texts about a single subject.
• Option C: Explaining the Sun's creation would focus on its origin, but the question is about how the selection is organized (not just origin), so C is less likely.
• Option D: Providing problems and solutions about the Sun would focus on issues and fixes, which is not indicated here.

Answer:

B. He described different aspects of the Sun.
