______. In fact, most of our food exports go to the wealthier areas--- Europe, Japan and Canada. We currently ship three times more agricultural exports to Europe than to Latin America and Africa combined. Of the ten leading U.S. agricultural exports, four-hides, tallow, cotton, and tobacco are not edible at all, and of the remaining six, only two are high in protein--- nonfat dry milk and soybean. Most of the soybeans go to Japan, Western Europe and Canada, where they are fed to livestock. As for the one million tons of protein imported annually by the rich nations from the poor nations, much, if not most of it comes from the soil of the underdeveloped world and goes into the mouths of European livestock in the form of high-protein seed meals.

America’s exports and imports are not balanced.
B. While America absorbs protein from underdeveloped countries, it does not return it as protein-rich food.

The paragraphs below miss topic sentences. After reading the incomplete paragraphs, choose the topic sentence that best unifies each paragraph. 1. _______. A similarity between these two nineteenth-century writers lies in their appeal to nature as a medium of transcendental truth. The major difference is that Bryant believes that nature should not only inform individual morality in a socially-constructed world, but also that nature “should also be able to keep man suitably depressed with its lessons of decay and death” (Miller 291). Emerson’s social world, on the other hand, requires that the individual make strictly hopeful connections between human endeavors and the sublime lessons of nature.

A. Despite their differences, there is a “natural” connection between Bryant’s morality and Emerson’s “reason”.
B. For example, both Bryant and Emerson use natural images of the landscape to invoke feelings of national pride.
