Question # 1. The following question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.

Question # 1, Part A

What is most likely the author's intent by mentioning the “Rodeo Drive shopping spree” in the following paragraph?

When my parents said the three of us were moving out to California, to a place just north of Los Angeles, my mind immediately went to thoughts of Disneyland and Hollywood, glitz and glamour. I imagined a Rodeo Drive shopping spree to pick out a bikini for the endless days I would be spending on the beach. However, I’d forgotten about my parents’ penchant for the unconventional; they’re definitely “the road less traveled” kind of people. Mom had a gopher snake for a pet when she was younger, and Dad was never happier than when he was climbing near-vertical cliffs that only mountain goats could love. These are not city folk.

Question 1 options:

To show that the narrator comes from a family that is used to spending money.


To reveal the narrator as someone who is shallow and cares only for nice things.


To contrast the narrator's grand dreams with the sparse life her parents have in mind.


To emphasize the narrator's nervousness about moving to a place so far removed from civilization.


Question # 2, Part B

Which sentence from the text best supports your answer in part A?

Question 2 options:

“On the stone staircase that led to the front door, black lizards interrupted their push-ups to twist their heads and eye us as we passed.”


“Our new home consisted of one bedroom, one bathroom, and one big room for everything else.”


“Dad told me the real estate agent had mentioned that coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, and even bears roamed these hills.”


“In the city, or even in the suburbs where I had lived before, you could see only the brightest stars in the sky.”

What is the best way to revise the sentence?

Please please please help me, I beg you I beg you. Read the lyrics and answer question. What does Juanes do when he encounters a problem? What helps Juanes to persevere? Who helps Juanes to persevere?

When life hits me and gets me down
is when I feel the most the need to rise up
that facing the fear is a way to defeat it
I won't give up, I won't give my life to fear
fear is a murderer who kills the feelings
everytime I am alone is because God is here, inside

And I need silence to be able to find
my own voice and my truth
And at the and of darkness
I don't feel alone, I know you are with me

Today I'll rise and I won't resign my heart
to do what I wanted but I wasn't able to
I won't accept today, I will try to be better
life has a solution, there's nothing impossible
I don't believe in "never"...no!

If giving up is a way of dying
then I never want to please death
I think about my family, my heart beats stronger
One can't live thinking about the day he'll die
and they say that dreaming is like dreaming while being alive
And I believe in the present, and that is getting me away from death

And I need silence to be able to find
my own voice and my truth
And at the and of darkness
I don't feel alone, I know you are with me

Today I'll rise and I won't resign my heart
to do what I wanted but I wasn't able to
I won't accept today, I will try to be better
life has a solution, there's nothing impossible
I don't believe in "never"...no!

Revise the following essay so that it’s more appropriate for the task, purpose, and audience describe in the prompt.

Prompt:
Write and argumentative essay aimed at your legislator that explains a few problems related to climate change and argues for a reasonable change that ordinary people can make to help solve these problems.

Essay:
One way that we can help keep climate change from getting worse is by using
public transportation rather than individual cars whenever possible.
These changes in heat affect the entire globe's climate but not always in the
same way. One outcome of climate change is extreme weather – not just
extreme heat or drought, but also tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and other
disasters that used to happen just once in a blue moon. Climate change is the
result of carbon emissions in the atmosphere trapping heat that would
normally leave through the ozone.
Cars are responsible for 28 percent of carbon emissions in the United States.
If each person rode the bus just one day a week, carbon emissions could be
reduced by almost 40 percent.
