The response:<br />
Reveals an in-depth analysis of the documents by connecting information from the text (the<br />
population … fewer than 2,000 remaining) and the table (Other human related causes …<br />
fishing lines) to explain the danger to the manatee. The response makes insightful connections<br />
between information and ideas in the documents and the assigned task (In most cases, humans<br />
aid … species … with the Florida manatee, however, this is yet to happen).<br />
Develops ideas clearly and fully, making effective use of a wide range of relevant and specific<br />
details from the documents to discuss humans as the cause of the manatee’s decline (flood gates<br />
and canal locks; litter, poaching; watercraft collisions) and ways to further the welfare of this<br />
species (slow-speed zones, boater education, legal action).<br />
Maintains a clear and appropriate focus on the manatee as an endangered species and the<br />
effective means to save it. The response exhibits a logical and coherent structure, moving from<br />
a consideration of wildlife on this planet to the plight of the Florida manatee, to efforts<br />
underway to protect it (Florida has ordered … protection plans”). The conclusion reconnects<br />
the manatee with other endangered animals, placing the responsibility for saving it on humans.<br />
Transitional devices are skillfully used (Therefore, In fact, With cooperation and organization).<br />
Is stylistically sophisticated, using language that is precise and engaging (While the incentive …<br />
forced by law to act), with a notable sense of voice (A greater awareness … wonderful animal)<br />
and awareness of audience and purpose (Of course … have unleashed). The response varies<br />
structure and length of sentences to enhance meaning (It is clear, therefore, that human<br />
development and carelessness are leading to the extinction of the manatees).<br />
Demonstrates control of the conventions with essentially no errors, even with sophisticated<br />
language.<br />
Conclusion: Overall, the response best fits the criteria for Level 6 in all qualities.<br />
