Q: Background Paragraph: In the U.S., the majority of electricity is produced by burning coal or other fossil fuels. This causes air pollution that harms the health of living things. The air pollution also causes acid rain and contributes to global warming. In addition, fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources, so if we keep using them, they will eventually run out. The main advantage of nuclear energy is that it doesn’t release air pollution or cause the other environmental problems associated with the burning of fossil fuels. On the other other hand, radioactive elements are nonrenewable like fossil fuels and could eventually be used up. 
Story: Thorn county used fossil fuels for their energy needs, while Plant county used nuclear power. They both polluted the environment in different ways. 
Question: Which county released more air pollution?

A: Thorn.

Q: Background Paragraph: Recall that air pollution is due to chemical substances and particles released into the air mainly by human actions. When most people think of air pollution, they think of the pollution outdoors. But it is just as easy to have indoor air pollution. Your home or school classroom probably doesn't get much fresh air. Sealing up your home reduces heating and cooling costs. But this also causes air pollution to stay trapped indoors. And people today usually spend a majority of their time indoors. So exposure to indoor air pollution can become a significant health risk. 
Story: James spent a lot of time indoors, and didn't get out much like Rob, his friend, who loved outdoors stuff. 
Question: Which friend was exposed more to indoor pollution?

A: James.

Q: Background Paragraph: Sand mining is a direct cause of erosion, and impacts the local wildlife.[2] Various animals depend on sandy beaches for nesting clutches, and mining has led to the near extinction of gharials (a species of crocodile) in India. Disturbance of underwater and coastal sand causes turbidity in the water, which is harmful for organisms like coral that need sunlight. It can also destroy fisheries, financially harming their operators.

Removal of physical coastal barriers, such as dunes, sometimes leads to flooding of beachside communities, and the destruction of picturesque beaches causes tourism to dissipate. Sand mining is regulated by law in many places, but is often done illegally.[3] Globally, it is a $70 billion industry, with sand selling at up to $90 per cubic yard.[4]. 
Story: The island of Utopia is a popular tourist destination with its great sandy beaches. Two of the most popular beaches are beach A and beach B. Both beaches also have 
large wildlife sanctuaries where rare dolphins can be seen. There are some fisheries in both beaches too. This year the government of Utopia is looking for more sources to increase their revenue. They decided to allow sand mining in beach A next year, and earn 
some extra revenue. 
Question: In which beach fisheries might not financially struggle next year, beach A or beach B?

A:
beach B.
