Read the excerpt from The Mother of America:

George Washington is frequently considered the "Father of America." Likewise, his wife, Martha Washington, could also be considered the "Mother of America," as demonstrated by her roles as the general's wife and the first lady.

During the American Revolution, Martha Washington earned the title of "Mother of America" for her caring nature as the general's wife. She was also very brave. Despite the danger of kidnapping, Martha refused to abandon her home, Mount Vernon, in Virginia. When Martha did leave the plantation for periods of time, she traveled to the military camps where Washington was staying. First, Martha had to be vaccinated so that she would not suffer from smallpox. Once she was inoculated, Martha made the risky trip to camp. British and American soldiers roamed the countryside, and capture was a real possibility. Nevertheless, Martha arrived at each winter camp. She acted as confidant and secretary to George Washington, who believed that her presence was crucial. She encouraged the soldiers, helped their wives, and comforted those who were wounded. One of her key roles was also to entertain important visitors to the camp. Occasionally, Martha Washington even represented George at events he could not attend. Martha used her position to contribute to fundraising efforts for military supplies in 1780 and knit socks for the soldiers herself. Overall, her care and attention to others' needs made her the "Mother of America" during the American Revolution.

Skunk Chow
Skunks are omnivores. They can be found eating nuts, berries, roots, leaves, grasses and even some types of fungi (mushroom-like plants). For animals, they enjoy dining on rodents such as mice and rats, insects, earthworms, frogs, lizards, toads and birds. Sometimes when they are unable to find live animals to eat they become scavengers eating dead animals left behind. When they live close to people’s homes, skunks sometimes will even get into trash cans eating, garbage.

When skunks eat they do not limit themselves to small meals. They like to “pig out” on whatever food they can find. When there is a large amount of food available skunks get very fat very quickly.

Select the correct text in the passage.

Antoine is writing a paper on how to develop creative tourist attractions. Which sentence from the passage is most relevant to his topic?

The miniature city of Madurodam in the Netherlands is a great attraction for tourists. Originally opened in 1052, it has received millions of visitors. The miniature park was originally built for the young George Maduro, a law student known for his heroism. Today, the place is open for visitors who want to feel like a giant for a day. It is like a real version of the classic novel Gulliver's Travels, in which Gulliver visits Lilliput, a land filled with small beings. Everything in Madurodam is about 25 times smaller than real life. What makes Madurodam so appealing is its ability to immerse visitors in this fantasy world. They get to see scaled-down versions of some of the famous Dutch landmarks and cities, which is a source of great enjoyment. Regular visitors and tourists alike can bend down and touch the tiny ships in the harbor or cover the lighthouse beacon with their hands.
