.Looking out from his hut one day he saw three robbers fighting and he called out to them. They stopped when they heard the call, but looking round and seeing nobody, they went on again with their fighting, which now became more furious. He cried out again, and again they paused and looked about, but seeing no one went back to their fighting. A third time he called out, and then thinking he should like to know the cause of dispute between the three men, he went out and asked them why they were fighting so angrily with one another. One of them said that he had found a stick, and that he had but to strike it against any door through which he wished to pass, and it immediately flew open. Another told him that he had found a cloak which rendered its wearer invisible; and the third had caught a horse which would carry its rider over any obstacle, and even up the glass mountain. They had been unable to decide whether they would keep together and have the things in common, or whether they would separate. On hearing this, the man said, ‘I will give you something in exchange for those three things; not money, for that I have not got, but something that is of far more value. I must first, however, prove whether all you have told me about your three things is true.’ The robbers, therefore, made him get on the horse, and handed him the stick and the cloak, and when he had put this round him he was no longer visible. Then he fell upon them with the stick and beat them one after another, crying, ‘There, you idle vagabonds, you have got what you deserve; are you satisfied now!’ After this he rode up the glass mountain.

Which sentence or group of sentences in this excerpt from “The Water of Life” by the Brothers Grimm indicates that the king’s eldest son is greedy?

A. His sons were very much grieved at their father's sickness; and as they were walking together very mournfully in the garden of the palace, a little old man met them and asked what was the matter.

B. “I know what would,” said the little old man; “it is the Water of Life. If he could have a draught of it he would be well again; but it is very hard to get.” Then the eldest son said, ”I will soon find it”: and he went to the sick king, and begged that he might go in search of the Water of Life, as it was the only thing that could save him.

C. ” But he begged so hard that the king let him go; and the prince thought to himself, “If I bring my father this water, he will make me sole heir to his kingdom.”


Long before you or I were born, there reigned, in a country a great way off, a king who had three sons. This king once fell very ill—so ill that nobody thought he could live. His sons were very much grieved at their father's sickness; and as they were walking together very mournfully in the garden of the palace, a little old man met them and asked what was the matter. They told him that their father was very ill, and that they were afraid nothing could save him. “I know what would,” said the little old man; “it is the Water of Life. If he could have a draught of it he would be well again; but it is very hard to get.” Then the eldest son said, ”I will soon find it”: and he went to the sick king, and begged that he might go in search of the Water of Life, as it was the only thing that could save him. “No,” said the king. ”I had rather die than place you in such great danger as you must meet with in your journey.” But he begged so hard that the king let him go; and the prince thought to himself, “If I bring my father this water, he will make me sole heir to his kingdom.”

Write a story about a teacher that can read minds

(1) In 1995, the American Academy of Pediatrics declared that "advertising directed at children is inherently deceptive
and exploits children under eight years of age." (2) The academy did not recommend a ban on such advertising
because it seemed impractical and would infringe upon advertisers' freedom of speech. (3) Today the health risks faced
by the nation's children far outweigh the needs of its mass marketers. (4) Congress should immediately ban all
advertisements aimed at children that promote foods high in fat and sugar. (5) Thirty years ago Congress banned
cigarette ads from radio and television as a public health measure-and those ads were directed at adults. (6) Smoking
has declined ever since. (7) A ban on advertising unhealthy foods to children would discourage eating habits that are
not only hard to break, but potentially life-threatening. (8) Moreover, such a ban would encourage the fast-food chains
to alter the recipes for their children's meals. (9) Greatly reducing the fat content of McDonald's Happy Meals, for
example, could have an immediate effect on the diet of the nation's kids. (10) Every month more than 90 percent of the
children in the United States eat at McDonald's.
F8. Click on the logical inference.
a. The author suggests that children's poor eating habits are as serious a health problem as adult's smoking.
b. TV commercials and other ads probably have little effect on children's behaviors.
c. The author believes fast-food chains can be convinced to voluntarily refrain from advertising unhealthy foods for
young children.

Read the excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.

A few genuine advances in understanding the hieroglyphs were made during the 1700s. The French scholar C. J. de Guignes observed that groups of hieroglyphs in Egyptian texts were often enclosed by an oval outline, which he called a cartouche. "Cartouche" is a French word that originally meant a cartridge, and the line around the hieroglyphs had a similar shape. De Guignes guessed rightly that the cartouches in hieroglyphic inscriptions were intended to draw attention to important names, probably the names of Egyptian rulers.

Based on this excerpt, what is the author’s view of the progress made in the 1700s?

A. A French scholar first used the term “cartouche” to describe hieroglyphs.
B.Scholars had some success understanding the meanings of the hieroglyphs.
C.By the 1700s, scholars had given up trying to figure out the hieroglyphs.
D.Hieroglyphs in Egyptian texts were often enclosed within an oval shape
