to develop ideas and to connect claims and evidence.stylistic or persuasive elements,such as word choice or appeals to emotion,to add power to the ideas expressed.Adapted from former US President Jimmy Carter,Foreword to Arctic NationalWildlife Refuge:Seasons of Life and Land,A Photographic Journey bySubhankar Banerjee.2003 by Subhankar Banerjee.1The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge stands alone as America s last truly greatwilderness.This magnificent area is as vast as it is wild,from the windswept coastalplain where polar bears and caribou give birth,to the towering Brooks Range whereDall sheep cling to cliffs and wolves howl in the midnight sun.2More than a decade ago,my wife Rosalynn and I had the fortunate opportunity tocamp and hike in these regions of the Arctic Refuge.During bright July days,wewalked along ancient caribou trails and studied the brilliant mosaic of wildflowers,mosses,and lichens that hugged the tundra.There was a timeless quality about thisgreat land.As the never-setting sun circled above the horizon,we watched muskox,those shaggy survivors of the Ice Age,lumber along braided rivers that meandertoward the Beaufort Sea.3One of the most unforgettable and humbling experiences of our lives occurred on thecoastal plain.We had hoped to see caribou during our trip,but to our amazement,wewitnessed the migration of tens of thousands of caribou with their newborn calves.Ina matter of a few minutes,the sweep of tundra before us became flooded with life,with the sounds of grunting animals and clicking hooves filling the air.The dramaticprocession of the Porcupine caribou herd was a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife spectacle.We understand firsthand why some have described this special birthplace as“America s Serengeti.”4Standing on the coastal plain,I was saddened to think of the tragedy that might occurif this great wilderness was consumed by a web of roads and pipelines,drilling rigsand industrial facilities.Such proposed developments would forever destroy thewilderness character of America s only Arctic Refuge and disturb countless numbersof animals that depend on this northernmost terrestrial ecosystem.5The extraordinary wilderness and wildlife values of the Arctic Refuge have long beenrecognized by both Republican and Democratic presidents.In 1960,PresidentDwight D.Eisenhower established the original 8.9 million-acre Arctic NationalWildlife Range to preserve its unique wildlife,wilderness,and recreational values.Twenty years later,I signed the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act,monumental legislation that safeguarded more than 100 million acres of nationalparks,refuges,and forests in Alaska.This law specifically created the Arctic NationalWildlife Refuge,doubled the size of the former range,and restricted development inareas that are clearly incompatible with oil exploration.6Since I left office,there have been repeated proposals to open the Arctic Refugecoastal plain to oil drilling.Those attempts have failed because of tremendousopposition by the American people,including the Gwich in Athabascan Indians ofAlaska and Canada,indigenous people whose culture has depended on the Porcupinecaribou herd for thousands of years.Having visited many aboriginal peoples aroundthe world,I can empathize with the Gwich insstruggle to safeguard one of theirprecious human rights.7We must look beyond the alleged benefits of a short-term economic gain and focuson what is really at stake.At best,the Arctic Refuge might provide 1 to 2 percent ofthe oil our country consumes each day.We can easily conserve more than thatamount by driving more fuel-efficient vehicles.Instead of tearing open the heart ofour greatest refuge,we should use our resources more wisely.8There are few places on earth as wild and free as the Arctic Refuge.It is a symbol ofour national heritage,a remnant of frontier America that our first settlers once calledwilderness.Little of that precious wilderness remains.9It will be a grand triumph for America if we can preserve the Arctic Refuge in itspure,untrammeled state.To leave this extraordinary land alone would be the greatestgift we could pass on to future generations.Write an essay in which you explain how Jimmy Carter builds an argument topersuade his audience that the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge should not bedeveloped for industry.In your essay,analyze how Carter uses one or more ofthe features listed in the box above(or features of your own choice)tostrengthen the logic and persuasiveness of his argument.Be sure that youranalysis focuses on the most relevant features of the passage.Your essay should not explain whether you agree with Carter s claims,butrather explain how Carter builds an argument to persuade his audience.do not oPen tHis Book Until tHe sUPerVisor tells YoU to do so.Ideas contained in the passage for this test,which is excerpted or adapted from published material,do not necessarily represent

read the passage below,consider how Martin Luther King Jr.uses evidence,such as facts or examples,to support claims.reasoning to develop ideas and to connect claims and evidence.stylistic or persuasive elements,such as word choice or appeals to emotion,to add power to the ideas expressed.Adapted from Martin Luther King Jr.,“Beyond VietnamA Time to BreakSilence.”The speech was delivered at Riverside Church in New York City onApril 4,1967.1Since I am a preacher by calling,I suppose it is not surprising that I have.majorreasons for bringing Vietnam into the field of my moral vision.There is at the outseta very obvious and almost facile connection between the war in Vietnam and thestruggle I,and others,have been waging in America.A few years ago there was ashining moment in that struggle.It seemed as if there was a real promise of hope forthe poorboth black and whitethrough the poverty program.There wereexperiments,hopes,new beginnings.Then came the buildup in Vietnam,and Iwatched this program broken and eviscerated,as if it were some idle politicalplaything of a society gone mad on war,and I knew that America would never investthe necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as adventures likeVietnam continued to draw men and skills and money like some demonic destructivesuction tube.So,I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poorand to attack it as such.2Perhaps a more tragic recognition of reality took place when it became clear to methat the war was doing far more than devastating the hopes of the poor at home.Itwas sending their sons and their brothers and their husbands to fight and to die inextraordinarily high proportions relative to the rest of the population.We weretaking the black young men who had been crippled by our society and sending themeight thousand miles away to guarantee liberties in Southeast Asia which they hadnot found in southwest Georgia and East Harlem.And so we have been repeatedlyfaced with the cruel irony of watching Negro and white boys on TV screens as theykill and die together for a nation that has been unable to seat them together in thesame schools.And so we watch them in brutal solidarity burning the huts of a poorvillage,but we realize that they would hardly live on the same block in Chicago.Icould not be silent in the face of such cruel manipulation of the poor.3My next reason moves to an even deeper level of awareness,for it grows out of myexperience in the ghettoes of the North over the last three yearsespecially the lastthree summers.As I have walked among the desperate,rejected,and angry youngmen,I have told them that Molotov cocktails1and rifles would not solve theirproblems.I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining myconviction that social change comes most meaningfully through nonviolent action.But they askand rightly sowhat about Vietnam?They ask if our own nationwasnt using massive doses of violence to solve its problems,to bring about thechanges it wanted.Their questions hit home,and I knew that I could never againraise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without havingfirst spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world todaymy owngovernment.For the sake of those boys,for the sake of this government,for the sakeof the hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence,I cannot be silent.4For those who ask the question,“Arent you a civil rights leader?”and thereby meanto exclude me from the movement for peace,I have this further answer.In 1957when a group of us formed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference,we choseas our motto:“To save the soul of America.”We were convinced that we could notlimit our vision to certain rights for black people,but instead affirmed the convictionthat America would never be free or saved from itself until the descendants of itsslaves were loosed completely from the shackles they still wear.Now,it should beincandescently clear that no one who has any concern for the integrity and life ofAmerica today can ignore the present war.If Americas soul becomes totallypoisoned,part of the autopsy must read:Vietnam.It can never be saved so long as itdestroys the deepest hopes of men the world over.So it is that those of us who are yetdetermined that America will beareare led down the path of protest and dissent,working for the health of our land.Write an essay in which you explain how Martin Luther King Jr.builds anargument to persuade his audience that American involvement in theVietnam War is unjust.In your essay,analyze how King uses one or more of thefeatures listed in the box above(or features of your own choice)to strengthenthe logic and persuasiveness of his argument.Be sure that your analysisfocuses on the most relevant features of the passage.Your essay should not explain whether you agree with Kings claims,butrather explain how King builds an argument to persuade his audience.1A crude bomb made from glass bottles filled with flammable liquids and topped with wicksdo not oPen tHis Book Until tHe sUPerVisor tells YoU to do so.Ideas contained in the
