1.Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure and listen to the audio clip:

We boarded a flight from Orlando, Florida to Buenos Aires in Argentina.



We would then board a ship that would take us from Argentina to the remote Snow Hill Island in the Weddell Sea. Mom slept for the whole plane ride, but I stayed awake and researched penguins that live in Antarctica on my phone. I hadn't realized how many penguins didn't live in cold areas like Antarctica. Apparently, I wasn't the only one on the plane interested in reading about animals. The boy sitting across the aisle from me was reading a book about sharks, which was pretty neat.

Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure and look at the image:

The emperor penguins laid their eggs in early spring, and the eggs hatched in late summer. There were several locations where they gathered, and Mom and I researched them all. We decided that Snow Hill Island would be the best place to start taking pictures. There was a large rookery, or penguin nesting area, there, and it appeared to be the best place for Mom to get some great photos of the penguin chicks. (2 points)

How would the meaning of the excerpt change if the image was removed and replaced with this audio clip?


The focus would be on the character relationship rather than the fact that they are in a cold location.
The focus would be on the mother and daughter taking pictures, rather than the cuteness of the baby penguin.
The focus would be on the type of camera the character is using rather than adorable baby penguins.
The focus would be on the weather rather than on the relationship between the mother and daughter characters.

Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure and listen to the audio clip:

When the day of our departure arrived, I hugged my dog, Bruce, goodbye at the kennel before jumping into the car.



On the way to the airport, I drummed my fingers against the car window. I couldn't sit still. I was so excited for our trip.

How would this image add meaning to the story if it were included instead of the audio clip? (2 points)

girl hugging dog

The image would show the reader that Bruce is not actually sad, but worried.
The image would add meaning by showing how sad the narrator is at having to leave Bruce.
The image would add emotion by showing Bruce sitting in the kennel, watching his owner leave.
The image would show the bond between the narrator and Bruce, which adds more emotion to the story.

Which of these sentences could be added to the end of the third paragraph (sentences 18-21) to support the ideas in that paragraph?

A. Even on the federal level, it is rare for civil servants to receive time off let alone three entire months for a summer break.

B. This kind of program will also allow teachers to better prepare for curriculum and not have to rush through important concepts and ideas.

C. The summer break not only helps students to do better in schools, it ultimately helps the economy as travel increases during the summer.

D. In the real world, most people only receive a limited number of days for vacation as well as a set number of sick days and personal time-off days.


This is the paragraph:

(1) As students and teachers, we should both feel lucky to enjoy not only a summer break, but in some cases, a winter break as well. (2) In the working world, summer breaks are a welcomed oasis to a normal working schedule, but they never happen. (3) School is supposed to prepare students for what the "real world" will be like. (4) Why then do most schools still implement the antiquated policy of summer vacation? (5) As students and teachers, don't we also make up the "real world"? (6) The real world works like this: people don't get summers off like they do in school, so summers in school are disingenuous because it does not reflect the "real world" like year-round schools.

(7) For many working citizens, a summer break is a novel idea, but it is impractical. (8) Consider what would happen to a city government that decided to take the summer off. (9) Garbage would pile up. (10) Police stations would close. (11) Fire stations would be empty. (12) Now, imagine doing without one of the many services the city provides for almost three months. (13) The entire city would riot. (14) Yet, aren't public servants also a part of the "real world"? (15) Why don't they get summers off as well? (16) Preparing students for the real world while giving them summers off does not prepare them for the real world. (17) It gives them a false sense of what the real world will be.

(18) Year-round schooling, however, is a more accurate representation of what the true real world is. (19) In a year-round school program, students would go to school Monday through Friday for four months at a time. (20) Students would also get a week's vacation at each quarter interval. (21) In the end, this would better prepare students for what the real world is truly like.

Answer the question on the right

Directions: Read the passage, and answer the question that follows.

The Black Death

A The growing cities of the Middle Ages could be exciting places. However, many were dark, unsafe, and unhealthy. Streets were narrow, crooked, and filthy. There were no streetlights or police. Many people did not go out alone at night for fear of robbers. If people did go out, they often took servants along with them for protection and to carry lanterns or torches to light the way. Waste was dumped into open gutters. All in all, conditions were disgusting. This caused diseases to spread quickly through the crowded cities.
B Beginning in 1347, one such disease, a terrible plague, swept through Europe. The disease was called the Black Death because of the darkened color of its victims’ faces after they died. The plague began in Asia and spread along busy trade routes. Trading ships carried the disease west to the Mediterranean. From the Mediterranean ports, the disease spread throughout most of Europe. Rats on the ships carried the disease. Fleas from the rats spread the disease to people.
C Once people became infected, the disease could be spread from person to person. People became infected as they came in contact with the sick. According to Jean de Venette, a friar who lived at the time, young people were more likely to die than old people. Those who got sick lasted only two or three days and then died suddenly. This happened in such great numbers that often those who lived could not keep up with burying the dead. The friar wrote, “Someone who was healthy one day could be dead and buried the next. . . . A healthy person who visited the sick hardly ever escaped death.”
D No one knows the exact number of plague deaths in Europe. Some guess that about 25 million people died in Europe from 1347 to 1351. This was about one third of the entire population. The death rate varied from place to place. Towns seemed to be harder hit than the countryside. Some entire villages and towns were wiped out. The plague affected the rich as well as the poor. Even the great and powerful, including royalty, were struck down. Throughout Europe, populations were devastated by, as the Welsh called it, “death coming into our midst like black smoke.”
E The Black Death greatly affected Europe. Relations between the upper classes and lower classes changed. Workers, now in short supply, demanded higher wages. In several European countries, peasants staged uprisings. There were emotional effects as well. In some areas, the theme of death appeared in poetry, sculpture, and painting. People’s faith was shaken. The church lost some of its power and importance. The Black Death took a greater toll on human life than any war or illness before that time. It was perhaps the greatest tragedy in all of European history.

It is most likely that disease hit towns harder than the countryside because the towns—
a.
had no police
b.
had more rats
c.
were not lighted
d.
were more crowded
