Read the excerpt from "To Save a Turtle."

Quentin didn’t help much with the beach cleanup, but he seemed impatient to see a crawl. Brenda could sort of understand that. The fact that he wasn’t sold on cleaning up wasn’t really suspicious on its own. After all, cleaning up the beach wasn’t a lot of fun. But there were other things Brenda began to pick up on as she observed him. She had seen Quentin sneak out of the cabin at night three times. If there had been a town near the camp, he might have been going out to a local restaurant or club, but the only thing nearby was the beach that led to the ocean. He could have been going for a midnight swim, except that he didn’t come back wet.

What is the most important detail from this excerpt?

a)Quentin does not like to clean up the beach.
b)Brenda notices Quentin’s suspicious behavior.
c)Brenda understands Quentin’s impatience.
d)The beach leads to the ocean.

How does race influence the way that people see others?
How does this shape behavior?

(from speech by Winston Churchill, “The Approaching Conflict,” 1909)

You know the position which has been created by the action of the House of Lords. Two great political parties divide all England between them in their conflicts. Each commands a powerful organization; each is backed by numbers; each has its functions, its aspirations, and its sources of strength; and to and fro they swing in their struggles with varying fortunes from year to year, and from election to election—and from their struggles, strange as it may appear, over a long period of years, a steady stream of progress is born.

Read the excerpt about secondhand smoke from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website. Eliminating smoking in indoor spaces fully protects nonsmokers from exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS). Half of the US population is covered by state or local smokefree laws that do not allow indoor smoking in worksites and public places, including restaurants and bars. Most people have adopted smokefree rules in their home. Still, exposure in the home remains a significant problem. - The home is the primary source of SHS exposure for children. - About 80 million (1 in 4) Americans live in multiunit housing and can be exposed to unwanted SHS in their homes. SHS from units or common areas where smoking occurs can seep into smokefree units. - Many who live in public housing are especially affected by SHS, including children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. Which detail best helps answer the research question "Are smokefree policies effective in protecting people from the dangers of secondhand smoke?"
