Excerpt from To Build a Fire This passage is an excerpt from Jack London's famous short story describing the experience of a man hiking in the middle of an extremely cold winter morning. With his faithful companion a husky dog, the man and the dog walk through the winter morning hoping to meet his associates later that day. All this the man knew. The old–timer on Sulphur Creek had told him about it the previous fall, and now he was appreciating the advice. Already all sensation had gone out of his feet. To build the fire he had been forced to remove his mittens, and the fingers had quickly gone numb. His pace of four miles an hour had kept his heart pumping blood to the surface of his body and to all the extremities. But the instant he stopped, the action of the pump eased down. The cold of space smote the unprotected tip of the planet, and he, being on that unprotected tip, received the full force of the blow. The blood of his body recoiled before it. The blood was alive, like the dog, and like the dog it wanted to hide away and cover itself up from the fearful cold. So long as he walked four miles an hour, he pumped that blood, willy–nilly, to the surface; but now it ebbed away and sank down into the recesses of his body. The extremities were the first to feel its absence. His wet feet froze the faster, and his exposed fingers numbed the faster, though they had not yet begun to freeze. Nose and cheeks were already freezing, while the skin of all his body chilled as it lost its blood. But he was safe. Toes and nose and cheeks would be only touched by the frost, for the fire was beginning to burn with strength. He was feeding it with twigs the size of his finger. In another minute he would be able to feed it with branches the size of his wrist, and then he could remove his wet foot–gear, and, while it dried, he could keep his naked feet warm by the fire, rubbing them at first, of course, with snow. The fire was a success. He was safe. He remembered the advice of the old–timer on Sulphur Creek, and smiled. The

My first day of high school was a total nightmare. I will never forget that day. I was a skinny, freckled, 14-year-old nobody. I just wanted to blend in, but I somehow spent the entire day being noticed for the wrong reasons. I messed everything up. I forgot my books. I went to the wrong classes. So when I went to the wrong lunch session and ended up in a room full of seniors, I wasn’t surprised. Luckily, someone came to my rescue. Sensing my anxiety, one girl pointed out that I was lucky to be lost in that room because it was the meeting place of the school’s new Community Service Council. She volunteered to take me to the food court and told me to ask her if I ever needed help. Beneath the red, white, and blue school banners, I watched her skip away to help another boy who had dropped his tray. Apparently, I wasn’t the only one having a bad day. The Community Service Council ended up having a huge effect on my high school life. I just wish I could have found it in a less embarrassing way.

A.
to inform readers about a normal day at high school
B.
to persuade readers to join the Community Service Council
C.
to entertain readers with a funny story about the first day of school
D.
to express an opinion about the importance of community service

excerpt from Woman in the Nineteenth Century by Margaret Fuller Ossoli


Which details from the text best highlight the contradiction between men’s perception of women as physically and emotionally weak and women’s reality?

Select the two correct answers.


"By ascertaining the true destiny of Woman; giving her legitimate hopes, and a standard within herself; marriage and all other relations would by degrees be harmonized with these rights."

"Not only does the Native American woman carry the burdens of the camp, but the favorites of Louis XIV accompany him in his journeys, and the washerwoman stands at her tub, and carries home her work at all seasons, and in all states of health."

"We need not try to measure how often this happens. For who can review the experience of just the last week without recalling words which imply, whether in jest or earnest, these views, or views like these."

"As to the possibility of her filling with grace and dignity any government or leadership position, we should think those who had seen the great actresses, and heard the Quaker preachers of modern times, would not doubt that Woman can express publicly the fullness of thought and creation, without losing any of the peculiar beauty of her sex."
