Read this passage from Dragonwings by Laurence Yep.

I had been in the demon land for only ten months, so it would have been about January of the demons' year 1904, when we met Mr. Alger. I remember it was a gray, wintry day. We were making the rounds when we saw one of the horseless carriages stranded by the sidewalk and a demon in a big overcoat standing beside it. His driving cap was pushed back, and he was scratching his forehead in a puzzled way. The metal hood on the front of the horseless had been folded back on top so you could see into its innards.

"Whoa, Red Rabbit." Father pulled at the reins and Red Rabbit stopped. Father set the brake, and as an extra precaution he put the wooden block behind the wheel.

"Can I help?" he asked.

The demon was a big, cheerful-looking demon with a bland, round face. He eyed father. "I dunno, John." Many demons called Tang men John because, they insisted, they never could get the hang of our real names. "You know anything about horselesses?"
Which detail from the setting leads Father and the man to communicate?
A. the broken-down horseless carriage
B. the gray, wintry day
C. the man’s cheerful-looking face
D. the horse, Red Rabbit

Answer: pls brainliest

Explanation: The man calls the father john

Which sentence in the passage contains a fact that a debater can use to support the argument that recyding programs are beneficial?

Recycling and reusing resources can help preserve our planet and its limited natural resources. Recycling is when we take waste materials ar used items and convert them to reusable material. Reuse involves taking used items and repurposing them without converting them to a previous state. For example, 9 percent of all plastics were recycled in the United States in 2012, resulting in more than 28 million tons of plastic available for reuse. This is a start, but we can certainly do better.​

Money is pretty old but nobody knows exactly how old it is. Perhaps the oldest evidence of people using money is in the Code of Ur-Nammu. The Code of Ur-Nammu is a system of laws written around 2050 BC. That's like 4,000 years ago! Many of Ur-Nammu's laws carry fines, such as one stating that if a man is proven innocent of sorcery, his accuser must pay 3 shekels. This ancient document shows me two things: Ur-Nammu didn't tolerate false witch-hunts, and money is very old.

Read the following passage and determine the text structure.
The large African Bullfrog, like all amphibians, relies
heavily on water. Living in the dry region of southern Africa
presents a challenge. When the ground dries out, the
African Bullfrog must respond. It buries itself underground
and forms a cocoon from shed layers of skin and soil. The
frog "sleeps" inside the cocoon- surviving on water stored
in its bladder. Interestingly, the African Bullfrog eats his
cocoon when rainy weather returns. As a result
, when the
water returns, the African Bullfrog is able to continue an
active lifestyle.
