Read this conclusion from "Heads Up on Sports Safety."

Do the precautions of these helmets mean that football is safe? Football and other sports are safer; however, even with the best helmet, head trauma is still possible, especially after the head has been hit repeatedly. More information is still surfacing about the long-term possible effects of head injury to professional athletes.

Now read the supporting text appearing next to a photo of a 1904 football game in the article.

1904 football game between the University of Chicago and the University of Michigan. That year there were 18 football deaths and 159 serious injuries, due to lack of proper helmets, safety equipment, and loose rules. President Theodore Roosevelt urged the colleges to make the game safer. However, in 1905, there were still 19 player deaths and 137 serious injuries.

How does the supporting text of the 1904 football game relate to the purpose of the main text?

It shows how sports safety has not changed over time.
It describes how football games are played.
It provides an example of danger in sports in the past.
It illustrates the popularity of team sports in America.

Answer:

It provides an example of danger in sports in the past.

Explanation:

The text of the 1904 football game provides an example of the danger in sports in the past. The main text tells about how football has become safer but still isn't completely safe. Risks of serious injury still exist, but we don't hear about numerous deaths and hundreds of serious injury cases nowadays. This means that sports safety has changed, which makes the first option incorrect. The supporting text doesn't tell about how football games are played or about the popularity of team sports in America, which makes the second and fourth options incorrect as well.

This is why the third option is the correct one.

Answer:

It provides an example of danger in sports in the past.

Infer How does Mr. Pirzada react to the idea of Lilia going out trick-or-treating?

"Really, girls, you are both to be blamed," said Meg, beginning to lecture in her elder-sisterly fashion. "You are old enough to leave off boyish tricks, and to behave better, Josephine. It didn't matter so much when you were a little girl, but now you are so tall, and turn up your hair, you should remember that you are a young lady." "I'm not! And if turning up my hair makes me one, I'll wear it in two tails till I'm twenty," cried Jo, pulling off her net, and shaking down a chestnut mane. "I hate to think I've got to grow up, and be Miss March, and wear long gowns, and look as prim as a China Aster! It's bad enough to be a girl, anyway, when I like boy's games and work and manners! I can't get over my disappointment in not being a boy. And it's worse than ever now, for I'm dying to go and fight with Papa. And I can only stay home and knit, like a poky old woman!"

Read the excerpt from The Diary of Anne Frank.

"Mr. Frank. Now. About the noise. While the men are in the building below, we must have complete quiet. Every sound can be heard down there, not only in the workrooms, but in the offices, too. The men come at about eight-thirty, and leave at about five-thirty. So, to be perfectly safe, from eight in the morning until six in the evening we must move only when it is necessary, and then in stockinged feet. We must not speak above a whisper. We must not run any water. We cannot use the sink, or even, forgive me, the w.c. The pipes go down through the workrooms. It would be heard. No trash . . . (Mr. Frank stops abruptly as he hears the sound of marching feet from the street below. Everyone is motionless, paralyzed with fear. Mr. Frank goes quietly into the room on the right to look down out of the window. Anne runs after him, peering out with him. The tramping feet pass without stopping. The tension is relieved. Mr. Frank, followed by Anne, returns to the main room and resumes his instructions to the group) . . . No trash must ever be thrown out which might reveal that someone is living up here . . . not even a potato paring. We must burn everything in the stove at night. This is the way we must live until it is over, if we are to survive."

What does this dialogue reveal about how Mr. Frank views his role in the attic?

A.)He considers himself to be the only person who is allowed to make rules.
B.)He sees himself as a leader who is responsible for keeping the others safe.
C.)He understands that people look to him for leadership, but it makes him uncomfortable.
D.)He believes that he must give each person an equal say in creating the rules.

Review the first paragraph of the article, "To Tell the Truth." At this point in the history of television, the prevalence of reality TV is hard to miss. Reality TV is the portrayal of real people living through what are, for them, ordinary situations. You've probably seen at least one example of the genre. You may have squirmed through a few scenes of Deadliest Catch, a deep dive into the dangerous lives of Alaskan king crab fishermen. Or perhaps you admired the haul of antiques and treasures recently gathered by the much-loved American Pickers. Maybe you were drawn into the drama of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, or perhaps you decided to follow the vastly different lives of Matt and Amy Roloff in Little People, Big World.The fact that these shows air during prime time—between 8 pm and 11 pm—and the variety of situations they tackle suggests just how obsessed viewers have become with reality TV. While the genre may seem like a recent phenomenon, it's actually been around a long time. In this paragraph, what is the author trying to demonstrate by using the words squirmed, admired, drawn, and loved?

how people's emotional responses to reality TV can range
how the limitless choices of reality TV can overwhelm and confuse audiences
how reality TV attempts to make its audience uncomfortable for ratings
how the characters in reality TV show different emotions

In your experience, what kind of people and experiences change us for the better? Is
punishment or kindness more effective at helping people change? Cite evidence from
this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.

Use context clues to determine the meaning of the word restrained. Write your definition, along with the words or phrases that were most helpful in arriving at
your conclusion. Then consult a dictionary to confirm your understanding.

The literature and other art of the ancient and classical periods is characterized by a formal and restrained style. A glance at any piece of classical Greek or Roman art or architecture makes that style clear. It is
perfectly balanced and symmetrical and hardly adorned, which can be seen in the Parthenon, a famous Greek temple built in 480 BCE. Classical artists strove to achieve an ideal, and therefore did not include excess features that could throw the piece off balance or reveal any awkward human flaw. Likewise, classical authors employed a restrained style in their poetry and prose. True to the philosophy of the time, they prized balance and order in their language and
in the structure of their poems and plots. Dramas follow Aristotle's unities, strict rules that dictated that a play must focus on one action over the course of one day in a single location. All the messy action happens offstage and then is described in formal language for the audience by a member of the chorus. In epic poems, passionate actions are often counseled against or result in terrible consequences.

Write the definition of ‘mythology’ in your own words.

I remember well the remark made to me once by one of my teachers—and a very good teacher, too, who nevertheless did not see what her own observation ought to have suggested. “School-children,” she said, “regard teachers as their natural enemies.” The thought which it would have been logical to suppose would have followed this observation is, that if children in general are possessed of that notion, it is because there is a great deal in the teacher’s treatment of them which runs counter to the child’s nature: that possibly this is so, not because of natural cussedness on the part of the child, but because of inapplicability of the knowledge taught, or the manner of teaching it, or both, to the mental and physical needs of the child. I am quite sure no such thought entered my teacher’s mind,—at least regarding the system of knowledge to be imposed; being a sensible woman, she perhaps occasionally admitted to herself that she might make mistakes in applying the rules, but that the body of knowledge to be taught was indispensable, and must somehow be injected into children’s heads, under threat of punishment, if necessary, I am sure she never questioned. It did not occur to her any more than to most teachers, that the first business of an educator should be to find out what are the needs, aptitudes, and tendencies of children, before he or she attempts to outline a body of knowledge to be taught, or rules for teaching it. It does not occur to them that the child’s question, “What do I have to learn that for?” is a perfectly legitimate question; and if the teacher cannot answer it to the child’s satisfaction, something is wrong either with the thing taught, or with the teaching; either the thing taught is out of rapport with the child’s age, or his natural tendencies, or his condition of development; or the method by which it is taught repels him, disgusts him, or at best fails to interest him.

When a child says, “I don’t see why I have to know that; I can’t remember it anyway,” he is voicing a very reasonable protest. Of course, there are plenty of instances of wilful shirking, where a little effort can overcome the slackness of memory; but every teacher who is honest enough to reckon with himself knows he cannot give a sensible reason why things are to be taught which have so little to do with the child’s life that to-morrow, or the day after examination, they will be forgotten; things which he himself could not remember were he not repeating them year in and year out, as a matter of his trade. And every teacher who has thought at all for himself about the essential nature of the young humanity he is dealing with, knows that six hours of daily herding and in-penning of young, active bodies and limbs, accompanied by the additional injunction that no feet are to be shuffled, no whispers exchanged, and no paper wads thrown, is a frightful violation of all the laws of young life. Any gardener who should attempt to raise healthy, beautiful, and fruitful plants by outraging all those plants’ instinctive wants and searchings, would meet as his reward—sickly plants, ugly plants, sterile plants, dead plants. He will not do it; he will watch very carefully to see whether they like much sunlight, or considerable shade, whether they thrive on much water or get drowned in it, whether they like sandy soil, or fat mucky soil; the plant itself will indicate to him when he is doing the right thing. And every gardener will watch for indications with great anxiety. If he finds the plant revolts against his experiments, he will desist at once, and try something else; if he finds it thrives, he will emphasize the particular treatment so long as it seems beneficial. But what he will surely not do, will be to prepare a certain area of ground all just alike, with equal chances of sun and amount of moisture in every part, and then plant everything together without discrimination,—mighty close together!—saying beforehand, “If plants don’t want to thrive on this, they ought to want to; and if they are stubborn about it, they must be made to.”
