I was born Gudrun Hildebrandt and married Moller, Mr. Moller, who was from Denmark. He immigrated here many years later and we met in New York. However when I started school in Chicago, where I grew up, needless to say, first of all, I couldn't speak a word of English, and I was the only child in the school that couldn't speak English. And (she laughs) it wasn't too happy the first couple of years but my mama said "Take heart because some day you're going to be able to speak two languages and all the ones that were teasing you will speak only one." And it was true. She was always right. So, my teacher suggested, since none of the children could pronounce Gudrun, which is an old Germanic-Scandinavian name, and a very beautiful name (I hear), she gave me a list of girls' names to choose from. So that all the kids could converse, you know, know what to call me. So I picked the name starting with a g, as with my name, and it was Gertrude. I'm not very happy with it, but it has stuck with me all of these years.

This is the link for the passage.

In his closing arguments, Atticus argues that there is one institution in the U.S. where “all men are created equal” and where the poorest person is treated the same as the richest: the court of law. How does Tom’s trial support this point of view? How does Tom’s trial contradict this point of view? Is there evidence that Atticus doesn’t believe in the equality of the courts that he proclaims? How does Tom’s race force him to take extra measures to avoid guilt in the eyes of the jury? Support your analysis with evidence from the text, as well as your own inferences.

To celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, we will be learning about the lives of several Hispanic Americans. Your assignment is to find biographical (life story) information about ten famous American women of Hispanic descent. Be sure that you find the following information about each person: date of birth, country of origin, how she (or her family) came to the United States, why she is famous, and how the person died (if applicable). You will use the information that you gather in the research on an in-class project. Be sure to keep track of your sources; your final project will require a works cited page.

"Oh, Mr. Cuthbert," Anne whispered, "that place we came through—that white place—what was it?"
"Well now, you must mean the Avenue," said Matthew after a few moments' profound reflection. "It is a kind of pretty place."
"Pretty? Oh, PRETTY doesn't seem the right word to use. Nor beautiful, either. They don't go far enough. Oh, it was wonderful—wonderful. It just satisfies me here"—she put one hand over her heart—"it made a funny ache and yet it was a pleasant ache. Did you ever have an ache like that, Mr. Cuthbert?"
"Well now, I just can't recollect that I ever had."
"I have it lots of time—whenever I see anything royally beautiful. But they shouldn't call that lovely place the Avenue. There is no meaning in a name like that. They should call it—let me see—the White Way of Delight. Isn't that a nice imaginative name? 1. In three to four sentences, explain how using the negative connotation of a word instead of the positive can impact a sentence. 2.Would you consider this a pun: "But if you call me Anne, please call me Anne with an 'e'." If so, what kind of pun is this? Explain in 1-2 sentences what the deeper meaning of the pun is.

Read this excerpt adapted from “A Brave Lad.” This story originally appeared in Chatterbox, a book of stories edited by J. Erskine Clarke.

Which line from the story supports the idea that Fred is a courageous boy?

It was Saturday afternoon when the boys of Wedderburn School went off as usual to swim their boats on a beautiful lake. Fred Langton had a new boat, which his grandfather had sent to him as a birthday present. It was a larger and better-constructed boat than any of the others. Each boy was, of course, eager that his own boat should win the race. Although all the boys admired Fred's boat and wished that they could have had one as good, they felt no grudge towards Fred himself. In fact, he was a general favorite in the school. He was kind-hearted, unselfish, and always willing to give anything that he had to his companions.

“I tell you,” said Bill Cowan to his own particular chum, Joe Morris, “that boat of Fred's will beat ours all hollow! I wish I had one as good!”

“Well, suppose it does win,” replied Joe Morris, “I shall not grudge it to him, for Fred is no sneak; he is out-and-out the jolliest fellow in Wedderburn School.”

“So he is,” said Bill Cowan, “and no mistake about it. Well, here we are at the lake, and now for some fun.”

On this particular Saturday, however, Fred was going to become famous in quite another way. The little boats were all in full sail, and the schoolboys were shouting with glee at the fun. Suddenly a fox-terrier took it into his head to chase the boats and show that he could swim as well as they could. Poor dog! It was quite true that he could swim. Unfortunately he got caught among weeds. He began struggling in the water and barking for help.

“Oh, I say, I can't stand this!” cried Fred Langton; “he will be drowned. I must go in and fetch him out!”

“No, no!” cried Bill Cowan; “the lake is quite deep just at that place.”

“Yes, I know it's deep,” added Joe Morris, “and, besides, you can't swim, Fred; don't be silly. Who cares for a dog being drowned?”

“I do, for one,” cried Fred, and dashing into the water he waded out to where the poor dog was half-standing, half-lying, among the choking weeds. Yes, the water was deep; but stretching out his arms he contrived to catch hold of the poor animal, and he quickly waded back to shore amid ringing cheers from all the people who had now gathered on the bank to watch the plucky lad. And whose was the dog? Nobody knew; it seemed, indeed, to have no owner and no home. But Fred and his companions carried it back with them to the school, and, after having told their tale, they begged the head master to keep it for himself. As Dr. Williams could not discover anything about the dog's ownership, he did keep it. So Fred's brave deed not only saved the animal's life, but procured a good home for it as well.

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

Which statement best evaluates the author's use of dialogue to enhance the narrative?

Amber placed the first batch of cookies on the oven rack and closed the door. "Only eight minutes till gooey, chocolate-chip goodness," she said, as she set the kitchen timer.

"Eight minutes is a lifetime when you have to wait for something this delicious!" said Jana.

"Let's watch some TV to distract ourselves." Amber grabbed the remote and flipped on the television, and before long the two were laughing hysterically at their favorite show.

Suddenly, Jana looked over at Amber. "What's that smell?"

"The cookies!" They both screamed at once. Panicking, they ran into the kitchen. The timer blared at them accusingly. Amber opened the oven door, and smoke billowed out.

"Guess we'll have to wait eight more minutes." Jana was already plopping more dough onto a clean cookie sheet.

"But this time, we watch the clock, not the TV!"

A.
The dialogue is effective, because it emphasizes the characters' friendship and the fun they have together.

B.
The dialogue is not effective, because it creates a humorous tone when the story's situation is serious.

C.
The dialogue is effective, because it helps create a vivid image of the characters watching television.

D.
The dialogue is not effective, because it distracts from the climax of the story, the burnt cookies.

Excerpt from Run with the Horseman Ferrol Sams The family was poor. It was "poor but proud." The confused boy grew up thinking one should be proud of being poor. One of the in-laws slipped around occasionally and made liquor. He had plenty of cash, did not read books, and was tolerated but not admired. A cousin had surrendered to the boll weevil, moved out of the county, and bought Coca-Cola stock. He was rich, but there was unspoken disdain for him because he had left the land. The grandparents told horror stories of having to boil dirt from under the smokehouse to retrieve salt after the Yankees had been on the land. They had learned to eat a weed called poke salad as a means of survival in those days, a custom that they passed on as a springtime ritual of communion to their descendants. Things apparently got a little better for awhile, but then the Great Depression hit the South like aftershock from the earthquake of Reconstruction, and the children knew poverty firsthand. They also, however, knew pride. No one in the county had any money to spend, and there was a security of blood that transcended the possession of material things. When one is convinced that one is to the manor born, the actual physical condition of the manor itself is of negligible importance.
Which best expresses the irony present in this passage?

A) It is ironic that the family is poor, yet still is proud.
B) It is ironic that one of the in-laws in the family slipped around occasionally and made liquor.
C) It is ironic that one of the boy's relatives had moved out of the county, bought Coca-Cola stock, and become rich.
D) It is ironic that they boy's family had learned to eat a weed called poke salad as a means of survival after the Civil War

Read the conclusion of The Adventures of Tom Thumb.


And now let us see what has become of the wicked ogre, whom we left sleeping on the rock.


When he awoke he missed his seven-league boots, and set off for home very angry.


On his way he had to cross a bog; and, forgetting that he was no longer wearing his magic boots, he tried to cross it with one stride. But, instead, he put his foot down in the middle and began to sink. As fast as he tried to pull out one foot, the other sank deeper, until at last he was swallowed up in the black slime—and that was the end of him.

Which statement is correct? A comma is needed in this sentence before the word "because" to separate the dependent clause from the independent clause. The phrase "on her project" should be separated from the rest of the sentence by commas on both sides. The dependent clause follows the independent clause in this sentence, so no comma is needed. This is a compound sentence made up of two independent clauses, so no comma is needed.
