Read the passage from “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe.
From “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe

Shaking off from my spirit what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity [old age or looking like an antique]. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior . . . No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones.
Poe is using two types of organization in this passage: spatial and order of importance. Focusing on order of importance, which phrase represents the most significant detail in this description?


A. No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen

B. the crumbling condition of the individual stones

C. seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity

D. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior

Scene 2

The boys soon come across a small hut in the woods. They group together behind a large tree close to the shelter. Suddenly, a loud growling sound comes from inside the hut, startling the boys.

Quinn: Did you hear that?

Reuben: Of course we did! It vibrated us from head to toe!

Bailey: (Voice shaking) It sounds like there's a really terrible creature in there. (Shakes head and stands tall) We need to find out what it is so that we can keep others safe. The last time we used the hut after sledding, I noticed a small back door. We'll catch them off guard if we sneak in that way.

Reuben: I like your thinking! Lead the way.

The boys move silently toward the back of the cottage as the growling grows louder.

Scene 2

Inside the dimly lit hut, two shadowy figures huddle in front of a small fire pit. A third creature is nearby, crouched low and growling. With a bang, the back door flies open and the three boys rush in, shouting wildly.

Bailey: We've got you surrounded, snow monsters!

Surprised, the larger figures turn toward the boys.

Bailey: (Shocked) Dad! Mom!

The third creature, a dog, runs towards Bailey. It drops a large chew toy in front of him and growls expectantly.

Bailey's Mom: (Chuckling) Snow monsters? Oh, my! What are you boys up to this time?

Bailey: What are you up to? you were supposed to be at the vet. We followed some footprints here, but they couldn't have been yours. They must be from some sort of monster.

Bailey's Dad: Were the footprints large and round?

Quinn: Yes! Did you see them, too?

Bailey's Mom: No, Quinn. We made them with these.

Bailey's Mom holds up a pair of snowshoes.

Bailey's Dad: We bought them on the way back from town, along with a chariot for Bella. The vet said the fresh air would be good for her, but she's still having trouble walking. We didn't mean to scare you, boys.

Bailey: We weren't scared! Well, maybe a little.

Reuben: It was all for nothing anyway, Bay. We were definitely barking up the wrong tree with this one!

Everyone laughs.

How might the story have ended if the setting from Scene 2 remained the same in Scene 3?

1. They might have found Bailey's parents in a different hut.
2. They might have found Bailey's parents outside.
3. They might have found snow monsters in the hut.
4. They might have found snow monsters outside.

Read the excerpt from "Healthy Eating."

But just a few easy changes in our diet will make a world of difference in our health. The key is planning and making informed decisions.

"People get stuck with the same five recipes. Or they feel kids are picky," said Erin Corrigan, the nutrition manager at Miami Children's Hospital. "My suggestion is you dedicate half an hour, once a week, to looking over ads at your favorite store, create a meal plan, make a list and go to the store and dedicate only going once a week, unless it's a real emergency."

Based on this excerpt, what does the author want people to do?

Accommodate children who are picky eaters.
Find a few good recipes and stick to them.
Spend less time shopping at the grocery store.
Create and maintain a healthy meal plan.
