In his twenties, Palahniuk attended the University of Oregon's School of Journalism, graduating in 1986. While attending college he worked as an intern for National Public Radio member station KLCC in Eugene, Oregon. He moved to Portland soon afterwards. After writing for the local newspaper for a short while, he began working for Freightliner as a diesel mechanic, continuing in that job until his writing career took off. During that time, he also wrote manuals on fixing trucks and had a stint as a journalist (a job he did not return to until after he became a successful novelist). After casually attending a free, introductory seminar held by an organization called Landmark Education, Palahniuk quit his job as a journalist in 1988. Palahniuk performed volunteer work for a homeless shelter; later, he also volunteered at a hospice as an escort; he provided transportation for terminally ill people and brought them to support group meetings. He ceased volunteering upon the death of a patient to whom he had grown attached.
What can we conclude about Palahniuk from the above passage?
- Palahniuk couldn't focus on the same thing for too long – hence he jumped jobs
- Palahniuk had to do odd-jobs to make money on the side until his writing career took off.
- Palahniuk was a jack-of-all-trades and master of none
- Palahniuk was easily influenced
- Palahniuk was a bad journalist.

The speaker departed from Franklin's example to some extent, instructing the students that they should let their lives be guided not by individualistic self-determination but by God's will, as discerned both personally, through intuition, and socially, through fellowship with other believers.instruct is an imperative verb.
Thus after that "should" must not be used.
Shouldn't the sentence be:The speaker departed from Franklin's example to some extent, instructing the students that they let their lives be guided not by individualistic self-determination but by God's will, as discerned both personally, through intuition, and socially, through fellowship with other believers.

A recent survey of all auto accident victims in Dole County found that, of the severely injured drivers and front-seat passengers, 80 percent were not wearing seat belts at the time of their accidents. This indicates that, by wearing seat belts, drivers and front-seat passengers can greatly reduce their risk of being severely injured if they are in an auto accident.
The conclusion above is not properly drawn unless which of the following is true?
- Of all the drivers and front-seat passengers in the survey, more than 20 percent were wearing seat belts at the time of their accidents.
- Considerably more than 20 percent of drivers and front-seat passengers in Dole County always wear seat belts when traveling by car.
- More drivers and front-seat passengers in the survey than rear-seat passengers were very severely injured.
- More than half of the drivers and front-seat passengers in the survey were not wearing seat belts at the time of their accidents
- Most of the auto accidents reported to police in Dole County do not involve any serious injury.
