Read the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis.”

When he was two, if you laid him on his stomach, he began to try to move himself, straining terribly. The doctor said that with his weak heart this strain would probably kill him, but it didn’t. Trembling, he’d push himself up, turning first red, then a soft purple, and finally collapse back onto the bed like an old worn-out doll. I can still see Mama watching him, her hand pressed tight across her mouth, her eyes wide and unblinking. But he learned to crawl (it was his third winter), and we brought him out of the front bedroom, putting him on the rug before the fireplace. For the first time he became one of us.

Part B

Which excerpts best support the answer in Part A?

Select the two correct answers.


1."'To think it will soon be June!' grumbled Bilbo, as he splashed along behind the others in a very muddy track. It was after tea-time; it was pouring with rain, and had been all day; his hood was dripping into his eyes, his cloak was full of water; the pony was tired and stumbled on stones; the others were too grumpy to talk. 'And I’m sure the rain has got into the dry clothes and into the food-bags,” thought Bilbo. 'Bother burgling and everything to do with it!'"

2."'What I say,' said Bilbo gasping. 'And please don’t cook me, kind sirs! I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean. I’ll cook beautifully for you, a perfectly beautiful breakfast for you, if only you won’t have me for supper.'

3.'Poor little blighter,' said William. He had already had as much supper as he could hold; also he had had lots of beer. 'Poor little blighter! Let him go!'


4."'My dear fellow,' said he, 'whenever are you going to come? What about an early start?--and here you are, having breakfast, or whatever you call it, at half past ten! They left you the message, because they could not wait.'

'What message?' said poor Mr. Baggins all in a fluster.


5."The washing-up was so dismally real that Bilbo was forced to believe the party of the night before had not been part of his bad dreams, as he had rather hoped. Indeed he was really relieved after all to think that they had all gone without him, and without bothering to wake him up ('but with never a thank-you' he thought)..."

Read this passage and identify the opinion Kamen expresses. How does he support his opinion?

I had just finished making a complicated piece of equipment that was to be used for a show opening in Philadelphia called "Fiorello." When the machine arrived they had trouble wiring it, so instead of going off to college that morning for an orientation, I spent several days at the theater fixing my light/sound equipment. The show received poor reviews, except for the mention by one reviewer of the "special effects," which, he wrote, were "outstanding."

How are historical events reflected in the play The Diary of Anne Frank?

How do lines 8-9 contribute to the overall meaning of the poem?





No man is an island entire of itself; every man

is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;

if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe

is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as

well as any manner of thy friends or of thine

own were; any man's death diminishes me,

because I am involved in mankind.

And therefore never send to know for whom

the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

Based on your analysis of this article, answer the following questions: Which argument seemed more persuasive? What language choices made the argument persuasive? Your answer should be 3-5 sentences long.​

"School gardens are popping up in school yards across the nation. While some view these gardens as hands-on learning opportunities, others view the gardens as taking time away from classroom academics. Opponents to school gardens say that students need rigorous classroom teaching in order to be successful adults. Gardening is something adults typically do in their free time as a hobby, not as work. Those against school gardens say that schools should not teach a “hobby” during “work” hours. Finally, opponents say that research does not provide any proof that time spent in a school’s garden leads to higher graduation rates.

Supporters of school gardens say that these gardens allow students to apply what they are learning in class to the real world. Students have to problem solve, and work together. Students apply the skills they are learning in science and math in the garden. No other experience can provide a natural laboratory for students to explore living things and the environment. Nearly every research study for the past 100 years has shown that for students to perform well after graduation, schools must teach to the whole child and provide whole-school experiences."

Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz.

The diary of Anne Frank is a legacy Miep Gies gave not just to Otto Frank, but to the world. It's been translated into some 65 languages and remains one of the best read books internationally. To the end of her century of life, Gies said she thought with sadness every day about the friends she had lost.
On her website she wrote it was her greatest sorrow that she and the others had been unable to save Anne, but she was pleased they'd been able to give the young woman two more years of life, and in that period Gies noted, Anne had written the diary with her message of tolerance and understanding.

What is the purpose of this excerpt?

to honor Miep Gies and share her history with the audience
