WOMAN ONE

(a little reluctantly)

Well . . . sometimes I go to bed late at night. A couple of times . . . a couple of times I'd come out on the porch and I'd see Mr. Goodman here in the wee hours of the morning standing out in front of his house . . . looking up at the sky.

Which detail best supports the inference that James Watt could not have made the improvement to his steam engine without the assistance of Matthew Boulton? The Steam Engine James Watt, who secured the position as a maker of scientific instruments in the University of Glasgow, proposed an idea for improving the existing steam engine, which was used for pumping mines. For a long time, owing to a lack of money, he had difficulty in establishing the merits of his improvements. Finally, he formed a partnership with Matthew Boulton, a wealthy and energetic man who lived at Birmingham, England. They began the manufacture of steam engines at Birmingham, under the firm name of Boulton and Watt. This partnership was very successful. Watt supplied the inventions; Boulton furnished the money and attended to the business. Before the time of Watt, the steam engine was exclusively a steam pump—slow and wasteful of fuel. Watt made it a quick, powerful, and efficient engine, requiring only a fourth as much fuel as before. Under his first patent, the engine was still used only as a steam pump, but his later improvements adapted it for driving stationary machinery of all kinds. The commercial success of his engine was soon fully established.

Which pronouns in this excerpt from Mark Twain's "Eve's Diary" show it is written in the first-person point of view?
Stars are good, too. I wish I could get some to put in my hair. But I suppose I never can. You would be surprised to find how far off they are, for
they do not look it. When they first showed, last night, I tried to knock some down with a pole, but it didn't reach, which astonished me; then I
tried clouds till I was all tired out, but I never got one. It was because I am left-handed and cannot throw good. Even when I aimed at the one I
wasn't after I couldn't hit the other one, though I did make some close shots, for I saw the black blot of the cloud sail right into the midst of the
golden clusters forty or fifty times, just barely missing them, and if I could have held out a little longer maybe I could have got one.

Read the passage.
Jasper Goes to Ecuador
It was clear from the start that this was a doomed voyage, but Jasper could not perceive this truth. He forged onward despite protests from
his mother and all his acquaintances. In a great hurry, he made arrangements with ship captains, secured goods for the trip, and generally worked
himself into a breathless mess by noon. He was a comical sight on the docks, his cap nearly blown off his head, his trousers half held up by ratty
suspenders. But he was oblivious to the figure he cut.
He had awoken on this unlucky Tuesday with an idea in his mind so bright it was is if the stars themselves had lodged it there: he must sail
to Ecuador and join his older brother Thomas on his quest for the lost city. That he had not heard from Thomas in over six months and had
absolutely no idea where in Ecuador Thomas might be found did little to dissuade Jasper. "How big could Ecuador possibly be?" he speculated to
himself. "It couldn't be much larger than New York! I will surely ask around and find him promptly." Jasper was, if nothing else, a positive thinker,

Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" show that medals and awards in war don’t always bring soldiers glory and acceptance?
The boys at first were very polite about my medals and asked me what I had done to get them. I showed them the papers, which were written in very beautiful language and full of fratellanza and abnegazione , but which really said, with the adjectives removed, that I had been given the medals because I was an American. After that their manner changed a little toward me, although I was their friend against outsiders. I was a friend, but I was never really one of them after they had read the citations, because it had been different with them and they had done very different things to get their medals. I had been wounded, it was true; but we all knew that being wounded, after all, was really an accident.
