Read the paragraph below.
I urge all students at Centralia High to come to the gymnasium tomorrow afternoon for Tech-Free Friday. While we can all
agree that modern technology is useful and enjoyable, the constant stimulation that we all face every day is overwhelming. Many of us
are plugged in to some device—a computer, a tablet, or a cell phone - every moment we're awake. That doesn't allow us time to think
things through to make healthy lifestyle choices, or to develop new hobbies, new social skills, and new friendships. Even if you believe
that constant connection isn't a problem, I encourage you to try the alternative. Come by the gym, get together with your fellow
students, and enjoy a Tech-Free Friday! I guarantee you'll "like" it.

Moles are rodents that are very similar to mice. They
live underground, spending most of their lives below the earth's
surface, in the dark. Mice, on the other hand, may dig burrows to nest and sleep in, but they spend much of their time above
ground. Mice also may build nests out of found materials, like cloth or grass. This difference in habitat has helped moles
develop differently than mice.
Select the adaptation we would expect to see in moles, but not in mice?
A)
Moles have very large eyes.
B)
Moles have highly sensitive ears.
C)
Moles have larger paws for digging.
D)
Moles can swim for very long distances.

Directions: Read the poem and then answer the questions that follow.
The Old Year
It passed like the breath of the night-wind away,
It fled like a mist at the dawn of the day;
It lasted its moment, then backward was hurled,
Another increase to the age of the world.
It passed with its shadows, its smiles and its tears,
It passed as a stream to the ocean of years;
Year that were coming--were here--and are o’er,
The ages departed to visit no more.
It passed, but the bark on its billowy track
Leaves an impression on waters aback:
The glow of the gloaming remains on the sky,
Unwilling to leave us--unwilling to die.
It fled; but away and away in its wake
There lingers a something that time cannot break.
The past and the future are joined by a chain,
And memories live that must ever remain.
- by Henry Kendall
