Claim
In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Wonka's factory is gigantic and poorly organized.
Evidence
Quote: “Soon, [Wonka] turned right off the main corridor into another slightly narrower passage. Then he turned left. Then left again. Then right. Then left. Then right. Then right. Then left. The place was like a gigantic rabbit warren, with passages leading this way and that in every direction” (Dahl 38)
Reasoning
Answer menu - Drag into one of the empty spots above.
The long, confusing list of directions and the comparison to the branching tunnels of a rabbit's den emphasize both the size and maze-like layout of the factory.
Wonka probably designed his factory like this so that it would be difficult for spies or thieves to find their way.
Many of the factory's rooms are below ground because, Wonka says, "[They're] enormous! They're larger than football fields! No building in the world would be big enough to house them!" (Dahl 38).
Reasoning:
The quote provided in the evidence suggests that Wonka's factory is confusingly laid out, much like a labyrinth or the branching warrens of a rabbit's den. This emphasizes the vastness and poor organization of the factory. Further, the mention of the underground rooms being larger than football fields also underlines the large scale of the factory. It is quite possible that such a complex and confusing design was intended to deter spies or thieves, but this is not provided in the text and is speculative.

Reasoning

A. The long, confusing list of directions and the comparison to the branching tunnels of a rabbit's den emphasize both the size and maze-like layout of the factory.
B. Wonka probably designed his factory like this so that it would be difficult for spies or thieves to find their way.
C. Many of the factory's rooms are below ground because, Wonka says, "[They're] enormous! They're larger than football fields! No building in the world would be big enough to house them!" (Dahl 38).
Reasoning:
A. The long, confusing list of directions and the comparison to the branching tunnels of a rabbit's den emphasize both the size and maze-like layout of the factory. This reasoning supports the claim by highlighting how the textual evidence underpins the enormity and complexity of the factory's design.
C. Many of the factory's rooms are below ground because, Wonka says, "[They're] enormous! They're larger than football fields! No building in the world would be big enough to house them!" (Dahl 38). This reasoning further emphasizes the sheer size of the factory and adds to the idea that the factory is not just big but so big that it could not be comfortably housed in a surface-level building.
B. Wonka probably designed his factory like this so that it would be difficult for spies or thieves to find their way. While this speculation might explain the labyrinthine nature of the factory, the claim and evidence do not explicitly touch upon this point, hence it doesn’t provide direct reasoning to the claim.

Claim
In The Fault in Our Stars, Hazel and Augustus use lines from An Imperial Affliction to guide their decisions.
Evidence
Quote: After Isaac's breakup with Monica, Augustus says to Hazel, “Pain demands to be felt" (Green 57)
Reasoning
Answer menu - Drag into one of the empty spots above.
Hazel explains how important the novel is to her: “And then there are books like An Imperial Affliction, which you can’t tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like a betrayal” (Green 33).
Augustus uses Van Houten’s words to help him and Hazel understand how to best support Isaac: by allowing Isaac to accept and embrace his pain.
In this instance, Augustus quotes An Imperial Affliction in front of Hazel in order to impress her.
Which one is the reasoning?
Augustus uses Van Houten’s words to help him and Hazel understand how to best support Isaac: by allowing Isaac to accept and embrace his pain.
Claim
Peer pressure influences most individuals’ beliefs more than logic does.
Evidence
Quote: “[Humans’] beliefs are motivated largely by emotion, and the biggest motivation is remaining tight with our peers” (National Geographic)
Evidence
Fact: The desire to fit in with peers can overpower logical thinking (Marcia McNutt, National Geographic)
Reasoning
Answer menu - Drag into one of the empty spots above.
By agreeing with their peers, individuals gain the sense of safety and security that comes from being part of a group.
In general, humans' actions are less guided by logic than they believe.
When humans form their beliefs, maintaining a sense of connection to others is more important than being logical.
Which answer is the reasoning?
When humans form their beliefs, maintaining a sense of connection to others is more important than being logical.
The claim that Wonka's factory in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is gigantic and poorly organized is supported by the evidence provided. The quote from the book describes the factory as a "gigantic rabbit warren" with passages that zigzag in various directions. This suggests that the factory is not well-organized and can be difficult to navigate.
The reasoning behind this claim could be that Wonka designed the factory in such a way to make it challenging for potential spies or thieves to find their way around. By creating a complex layout with numerous paths and turns, it would be harder for unauthorized individuals to navigate through the factory without getting lost or caught.
Additionally, it is mentioned in the book that many of the factory's rooms are located below ground because they are too large to fit in any building above ground. This further emphasizes the scale and size of the factory, supporting the claim that it is gigantic.
To arrive at this answer, you can refer to specific quotes from the book that describe the factory's layout and size. By analyzing the evidence provided, you can draw conclusions about the organization or lack thereof within Wonka's factory.
