(1) the nation's energy use is largely dependent on fossil fuels. (2) these fuels are nonrenewable resources, and
they cause pollution. (3) we cannot continue our reliance on a fuel that will eventually run out. (4) thus, we must
find other ways to sustain our energy demands. (5) pursuing alternative fuel sources is the key to solving our
energy crisis.
(6) currently, about 1 percent of energy in the united states is produced by the sun, and solar energy has the
potential to become a more widely used energy source. (7) through different technologies, such as solar cells,
scientists have learned to use the sun's radiation to create electricity. (8) solar energy is both inexhaustible and
clean. (9) the major limit to this alternative source is that equipment is expensive. (10) developing a cost-effective
way to harness the power of the sun will be a significant development in solving our energy crisis.
which statement introduces a new counterclaim to the author's position?
o batteries are being developed to harness the sun's power for use at a later time.
o the production of solar energy is relatively quiet, reducing noise pollution.
solar panels can be placed in remote areas, which is more cost effective than installing high-voltage wires.
o the use of solar energy is especially limited in areas that do not get regular sunlight.

18 points so for my assignment there need to be like conflict and stuff but i don't know where i am going with this. can somebody me out? and it needs to be turned in by 12.ring ring, ring ring… “dr. watson, hi. i have run out of blueberries at my berry shop! may you pick some up on your way here? remember, not the ones by the big pine. the ones by the creek.” “of course, sherlock! i’m on my way right now. see you soon! ” said dr. watson. beep. dr. watson always wants to impress sherlock so he made sure to leave right away to have enough time to pick through all the berries and find the best ones. it was about a 4-hour walk from dr. watson’s cottage to the berry shop, so he made sure not get distracted. about 2 hours into his walk, he started approaching the berries. however, these were the ones by the big pine that did not look very appetizing. the blueberries were so small, you could taste the sourness through your teeth. most of them weren’t even ripe yet. straight green. dr. watson turned away with his sour face and headed toward the creek. there, he saw the most beautiful berries. plump and juicy, dark blue, and so big, you could almost compare them to some grapes! as dr. watson went to pick the first berry, sherlock called. “hi! just checking in. how is it going? we have a few people who put in orders for blueberries. they will be picking them up tomorrow morning and we still need to get the blueberries through the sanitizing process.” “yes, i am going as fast as i can. i will be there soon! ”
