Read the excerpt from Iqbal.

Hussain Khan looked at us and growled, "What do you think you're looking at? Get back to work."

We bent to our looms, but then we quickly peeked over our shoulders. Hussain brought the new boy over to an empty loom in the row next to mine, pulled out a rusty shackle, and locked it on the boy's right ankle.

"This will be your place, here's where you'll work," he said.

Gym has a reputation as most students' least favorite class. From
changing clothes twice in an hour to doing silly drills, the whole thing is
pretty absurd. It makes no sense to insist that all students take gym
classes when everyone knows they are worthless. Today, there is less
time than ever before devoted to regular school subjects like English
and math. Instead of forcing students to spend time running around,
schools should abolish gym and give the time back to academics.

Read the excerpt from “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury.

It had been raining for seven years; thousands upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the other with rain, with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet crystal fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands. A thousand forests had been crushed under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again.

What does the imagery Bradbury uses in this line suggest?

…with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet crystal fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands.


The rain falls so heavily that the sound is deafening.


The rainfall can be rather pleasant at times.


The rain varies from violent storms to softly falling showers.


The rain falls so heavily that it floods everything.

To gather Paradise –

SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

What line from the text introduces an element of the plot?

Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight

Read this student's rough draft.

The holiday weekend driving had been slow, and Myra was cramped in the backseat with her little brothers. At least she had a window seat. She had read for 100 miles, a painfully slow three hours, and she needed a diversion. She looked out the window and watched the green mile markers slowly tick by. She saw signs for the Tri-Cities Beltway and wondered what they might encounter.

What sentence would best add descriptive details to the end of this paragraph?

The Tri-Cities Beltway had been constructed to alleviate traffic for three cities, but the
merge was always problematic.

The car slowed to a snail’s pace, and the line of cars ahead stretched out of sight, with exhaust fumes looming overhead.

Myra reached into the backseat cooler and found a sandwich and a soda her mother had packed.

The Beltway was a direct path back to their town, and Myra’s family had only 35 miles left to travel.

100 POINTS!!!
Civil Disobedience

Part 1

Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond.

Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.

Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.

It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote “If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.

What is the main idea of the bolded paragraph?

Thoreau wrote about his views of morality in "Civil Disobedience."
Thoreau had many ideas about justice after his stay in jail.
Thoreau spent much time writing about civil behavior.
Thoreau gave much thought to his form of rebellion.

Which of these is an opinion?
