9 Composition Answer Key Answer Keys Composition Holt, Rinehart and Winston Note: The exercises listed herein that follow page numbers are from Elements of Language. All other exercises are from the Lesson Manual. Pages Lesson 33 Reading Selection 1 The students have been following the progress of J.J., an orphaned whale that was recently returned to the ocean. 2 The students have been using the Internet to check reports of J.J. s progress. 3 The student may say that the information in this paragraph should appear earlier in the article because the paragraph includes specific information about J.J. This specific information is currently preceded by less important information and quotations from the students about how they feel about animals. 4 The students feel affection for the baby whale. 5 The student may say that these paragraphs are not necessary to understand the class s J.J. project. The paragraphs provide background information about other projects the students undertook in their ancient history class. Page 55 Your Turn 3 Answers will vary but the student may suggest cutting any of the following paragraphs. Paragraph 8: Details about other animals that the students take care of do not support the main idea. Paragraphs 9 and 10: Quotations about how animals help with loneliness or stress do not relate directly to the J.J. story. Paragraphs 16 and 17: Information about other class projects is not important to the story about tracking J.J. s progress. Lesson 35 Page 54 Your Turn 2 Step 1 Ten sixth-graders have been using the Internet to follow an orphaned whale s progress because they are concerned about her survival and adjustment to her new home. Step 2 Most of the details give more information about the students and what they think of the project, about the whale and her progress, and about what kinds of information students can get from the Internet. 21
