CPT questions! Please help ^^;;
Here's a few questions! Please tell me if I am correct, if not, please correct it if possible.
#1- It is worth keeping uncomputerized goverment in mind when discussing all the things goverment computers do wrong. Goverment computer may seem bad, but goverment without computers is, today, next by impossible
The author's main point is that:
.Computers in goverment are bad
.We are governed by computers
.Computers in goverment are a necessary evil
.Goverment computers do many things wrong (I chose this one)
#2- The son of two former slaves, Paul Laurence Dunbar worked in Dayton, Ohio, as an elavator operator. He wrote poems and songs during his free time and published his own books. When the reigning literary critic of the day, William Dean Howells, wrote a favorable review of his poetry in 1895. Dunbar immediatly became famous. Ten years later, though, his marriage had collapsed and he had contracted tuborculosis. Emotionally depressed and physically weakened by fever and coughing spells,. Dubar returned, famous, but forlorn, to Dayton, where he died at the age of 33. His poetry continues to be read today.
The passage identifies dunbar as all of the following except a:
.Writer of song
.Literary critic (I chose this.)
.Publisher
.Poet
#3
Sweepstakes declined markedly in populatiry during the first half of the 1970's then rebounded with a vengeance.

What does the second sentence do?
.It illustrates the first with an example.
.It gives a solution to the problem described in the first
