Answer: D. Both passages have a theme of the hardships of war.

Explanation: In both passages it talks about war.

In the first one, when it says "' I've just come from the Richmond camp with news about the revolutionaries...'" This is a clear statement about the revolitionary war, and further on it goes to say, "'Lieutenant Hamlin's horse came up lame, and he was unable to deliver himself.'" This is talking about something bad that happened durring the war.

In the second passage, it says, "Her village needed every able-bodied person to help defend against the Manchu." This person is obvisouly in a position of defense and how this girl is going to protect her village as her brother. Usually when protecting something, it's in a fight. Also, she said she "flinched" when she cut her first chunk of hair off, meaning it was causing her distress and wasn't easy.

SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

Which of the following correctly describes the narrator of this excerpt, "Sharks' Teeth"? (5 points)

1)

First person recalling a past event

Read this excerpt from "Rules of the Game."

"Bite back your tongue," scolded my mother when I cried loudly, yanking her hand toward the store that sold bags of salted plums. At home, she said, "Wise guy, he not go against wind. In Chinese we say, Come from South, blow with wind—poom!—North will follow. Strongest wind cannot be seen." The next week I bit back my tongue as we entered the store with the forbidden candies. When my mother finished her shopping, she quietly plucked a small bag of plums from the rack and put it on the counter with the rest of the items.

Choosing the right dog to adopt is a big responsibility that takes some thought and planning. To begin with, there are hundreds of breeds of dogs available to pet owners. They all have the potential to be great pets, but not every breed is right for every person. For example, Veterinarian's Weekly categorizes a Jack Russell terrier as a high-energy breed. My aunt has one, and that thing is crazy! It needs walks like 24/7. Therefore, it would be best suited to a very active family that has a large yard and a walkable neighborhood. In addition to energy level, pet owners should consider the size of their dog. How could this excerpt from an essay best be revised to clarify meaning and enhance style?

The benefits of cooking classes are so great that all schools should offer cooking as part of the standard curriculum. Food preparation is a skill that students will use throughout their lives. For example, Youth Focus magazine reports that early culinary education is likely to help young adults live independently, reduce expenses, and even offer meals to friends and family. But the benefits of cooking classes go beyond learning to chop, mix, and sauté. I mean, admit it: Cooking is way better than having to take a boring class like nutrition or science, and you can learn some of the same stuff. Plus, it's kinda fun, and you get free food.
