Which piece of evidence is accurately quoted from the text and
supports the inference that the first contact lenses were not
practical?
- Eyes on the Prize:
Advancements in
Vision
"Glass weighs more than plastic and can easily
scratch and break."
"Plastic contact lenses were smaller, lighter; and less
blikely to scratch or break."
i in the United States, about 75 percent
of the population wear eyeglasses or
contact lenses. Today, we take for
granted the help we get correcting our
vision. A look back at the past, though,
shows that the situation hasn't always
been so clear
Looking Behind
2 Vision problems are certainly not new.
So what did people do before
"Another huge advancement came in 1888, when the
first contact lens was developed."
"Inventors also designed new types of lenses to help
people with different kinds of vision problems."

Select the correct text in the passage. in richard connell's short story "the most dangerous game," zaroffs aristocratic appearance and dignified manners mask his sinister, animalistic nature. which line from the excerpt best provides a glimpse into his true nature? rainsford's first impression was that the man was singularly handsome; his second was that there was an original, almost bizarre quality about the general's face. he was a tall man past middle age, for his hair was a vivid white; but his thick eyebrows and pointed military mustache were as black as the night from which rainsford had come. his eyes, too, were black and very bright. he had high cheekbones, a sharpcut nose, a spare, dark face-the face of a man used to giving orders, the face of an aristocrat. turning to the giant in uniform, the general made a sign. the giant put away his pistol, saluted, withdrew.
