Read this excerpt from "Daedalus and Icarus."

Daedalus and [Icarus] packed up their supplies and got ready to leave on the next boat. However, King Minos stopped them at the dock. "I would like you to stay,” he said. "I have other projects for you to do.” Then the king smiled kindly and held up two large bags of gold. "Will this persuade you?” he asked.

"No, thank you,” Daedalus replied. "I’m not interested in another project.”

Read “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost. Which statement best describes the main idea of the poem? Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. A. The speaker informs the reader about two roads. B. The speaker expresses his feelings about nature. C. The speaker describes his unfulfilled dreams and wishes. D.
