Which lines from the poem best convey the idea that Americans cannot ignore homelessness?


“she rests in her weathered plumage / bigboned resolute”


“don’t think you can ever forget her / don’t even try”

“slung over one shoulder she bears / the rainbowed layers of charity and murmurs”


“she has fitted her hair under a hand-me-down cap / and spruced it up with feathers and stars”






Lady Freedom Among Us

by Rita Dove


don’t lower your eyes

or stare straight ahead to where

you think you ought to be going


don’t mutter oh no

not another one

get a job fly a kite

go bury a bone


with her oldfashioned sandals

with her leaden skirts

with her stained cheeks and whiskers and heaped up trinkets

she has risen among us in blunt reproach


she has fitted her hair under a hand-me-down cap

and spruced it up with feathers and stars

slung over one shoulder she bears

the rainbowed layers of charity and murmurs

all of you even the least of you


don’t cross to the other side of the square

don’t think another item to fit on a tourist’s agenda


consider her drenched gaze her shining brow

she who has brought mercy back into the streets

and will not retire politely to the potter’s field


having assumed the thick skin of this town

its gritted exhaust its sunscorch and blear

she rests in her weathered plumage

bigboned resolute


don’t think you can ever forget her

don’t even try

she’s not going to budge


no choice but to grant her space

crown her with sky

for she is one of the many

and she is each of us

Princess: It is time for my son to join his father in the ocean.

Prince: I'm very sorry for all the trouble I've caused.

Villagers: Back to the ocean with you!

Prince: I promise to never take more than my share of the fish again.

Narrator: The Shark Prince joined his father in the ocean, and to this day, the sharks never take more than their share of the fish.

A student is writing a narrative for class about a recent vacation. The student wants to revise the draft to include a conclusion that summarizes the narrative. Read the draft of the narrative and answer the question that follows.

Last November, we spent a weekend in the mountains of Tennessee. It was very cold, but there was no snow on the ground. Most of the trees still had their leaves, and the foliage was brilliant colors of orange and red.

We stayed in a cabin that was near the top of one of the tallest mountains in the area. The view from the back porch of our cabin was wonderful. There was a layer of thick fog that covered the gray peaks that looked like smoke.

I spent most of my time sitting in a rocking chair on the porch, drinking apple cider, and taking in the beauty of the mountains. There were not many other things to do there because the cabin where we were staying was so rural.


Choose the sentence that would best conclude the narrative.

A
There was one day that we spent exploring Gravelton, the closest town to our cabin.

B
If you want a good, quiet place to relax and wind down, the mountains is a great choice.

C
I prefer warm weather, so the weekend would have been more fun if it had not been so cold.

D
My brothers did not like sitting on the porch, so they stayed inside and played board games by the fire.
