Sometimes, your playful pooch might give a little nip to your hand or something else that shouldn't be
bitten. To stop bad biting behaviors, you should attempt to redirect your dog's attention to an
appropriate chew toy. You can do this by placing the toy in their mouth and praising them, causing
your canine companion to associate chewing on the chew toy with positive emotions. Another step
you can take to redirect biting behavior is to use biting deterrent spray. The spray can be homemade
or store-bought. Just make sure that the ingredients won't make your puppy's tummy sick!

Research shows that tipping in a restaurant has little to no effect on service. What tipping does do is
enable restaurateurs to pay less than the federal minimum wage to servers and depend on customers
to make up the difference between servers' salaries and the minimum wage. The U.S. federal
minimum wage for servers is $2.13 per hour. Although minimum wage varies from state to state, it is
safe to say that customers are paying the lion's share of servers' salaries. This practice leads to
resentment on the part of customers, and it devalues servers. It's time to abolish tipping and pay
employees a living wage. The result may well be happy servers who provide excellent service to
grateful customers.
Which of the following is the writer's main argument?
A. The custom of tipping should be abolished, and servers should be paid a living wage.

Shia looked up from his monitor, rubbed his eyes, and stared down the dark hallway toward the CFO's
office. He was certain a sound had come from behind the closed door. It was a heavy thump, like
someone had dropped a bowling ball.
There shouldn't be anyone else here at this hour, Shia thought to himself as he looked at his watch.
The only illumination came from Shia's computer monitor. His office was on the thirtieth floor, far too
high to get much more than a faint glow from the street lights below. Shia slowly stood up before
reaching down to turn off the computer screen, hoping to hide in the darkness. He considered turning
on his phone's flashlight, but his thoughts were cut short by a loud crash followed by the unmistakable
tinkling of shattered glass.
She froze, as if he were caught by the gaze of Medusa. The initial doubt that he would actually find
someone snooping around the CFO's office had turned to an
