Reading Poetry
Walking the Dog
A crackle, a scrape, a huffing pant
A sudden shower of leaves,
A darting squirrel, a taut leash
The energetic dog heaves
On through the canopied, crackling brown sea
His chest like the bow of a boat
Only his leaps and his forward motion
Keeping him afloat
Sunlight falls at a horizontal slant
As we enter the late afternoon
And pick up our pace a little more-
Darkness will fall on us soon

Read the excerpt from Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner’s Freakonomics.


The incentive scheme that rules sumo is intricate and extraordinarily powerful. Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of his life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isn’t very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters, and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything.

Excerpt from Atomic Theory
Clark Benson
Atoms in the Islamic Golden Age
4 A few hundred years later, in the eleventh century, the Islamic world was experiencing
its "Golden Age." During this time, the Islamic world made great advances in science,
medicine, and early technology. Many of the advances were further developments of
theories and ideas taken from ancient Greek and Indian civilizations, including atomic
theory. As the ancient Indian culture had done, the early Islamic world also tied religion to
thoughts on the nature of matter. The ties to religion led to theological schools
conducting research of their own on the subject. Al-Gazali, a notable theologian from the
time, was one of the earliest ancient thinkers to propose the idea that there was the
possibility of particles smaller than an atom.
Which of these is the BEST description of the main idea of paragraph four?
