6. Diаmоnd аrgues thаt WEIRD natiоns wоuld do well to adopt certain practicesthat are common in traditional societies. For example, in the societies Diamond documents, it is common for an individual to speak up to 15 languages. Seeing that this is possible,Diamond argues that modern societies should foster a culture of language learning. Diet is another area where he recommends looking to traditional peoples. The societies included in the book generally have diets low in sugar and salt intake, and, as a result, a greatly reduced risk of hypertension and diabetes. In contrast, almost 90% of US and European citizens will die from these and other non-communicable diseases.What does "these" in the last sentence of Paragraph 6 refer to?

The trаgedy оf the Triаngle Shirtwаist Factоry fire was a painful wakeup call tо the country that was largely ignoring issues of poor working conditions and worker health safety. William Shepherd's account of the tragedy in the Milwaukee Journal was an eyewitness account to the tragedy: "I saw every feature of the tragedy visible from outside the building. I learned a new sound- a more horrible sound than description can picture. It was the thud of a speeding, living body on a stone sidewalk.Thud-dead, thud-dead, thud-dead, thud-dead. Sixty-two thud-deads. I call them that, because the sound and the thought of death came to me each time, at the same instant. There was plenty of chance to watch them as they came down. The heigh was eighty feet.The first ten thud-deads shocked me. I looked up- saw that there were scores of girls at the windows. The flames from the floor below were beating in their faces. Somehow I knew that they, too, must come down... A policeman later went about with tags, which he fastened with wires to the wrists of the dead girls, numbering each with a lead pencil, and I saw him fasten tag no. 54 to the wrist of a girl who wore an engagement ring. A fireman who came downstairs from the building told me that there were at least fifty bodies in the big room on the seventh floor. Another fireman told me that more girls had jumped down an air shaft in the rear of the building. I went back there, into the narrow court, and saw a heap of dead girls...The floods of water from the firemen's hose that ran into the gutter were actually stained red with blood. I looked upon the heap of dead bodies and I remembered these girls were the shirtwaist makers. I remembered their great strike of last year in which these same girls had demanded more sanitary conditions and more safety precautions in the shops. These dead bodies were the answer."This passage is an example of the type journalism common during the Progressive Era. What was the primary goal of publishing such graphic eyewitness accounts?
