Question

how does alan weisman most clearly use text structure to prove his points? a. he speculates on what might happen at given points in the future in a world without people. b. he discusses the problem of human destruction of nature and gives solutions to prevent it. c. he writes descriptively about natures beauty. d. he compares natures harmony with humans now and with humans in the future.

Explanation:

Alan Weisman's work (e.g., The World Without Us) uses a speculative, chronological structure to outline nature's recovery at specific future intervals after human disappearance, which directly demonstrates text structure as a tool to prove his points about human impact and natural resilience. Other options do not focus on text structure: B lacks the structural focus, C is descriptive rather than structural, and D misrepresents his comparative focus.

Answer:

A. He speculates on what might happen at given points in the future in a world without people.
