Which is one of the main themes of Walden?

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Part 1

Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove.
"I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.
No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted.
*The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abel’s offering was accepted by God, but Cain’s was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, "Am I my brother’s keeper?" By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business. (Genesis 4:1-16)


Which line from the text shows that Mr. Utterson was often kind to those who needed it the most?
A "backward in sentiment"
B "austere with himself"
C "undemonstrative at the best"
D "approved tolerance for others"

Read the excerpt from A History of the World in 100 Objects. The drum was found by Kitchener's army near Khartoum after the Anglo-Egyptian reconquest of the city. Once again it was re-carved – or re-branded – to make a political statement: near the tail of the bush calf Kitchener added the emblem of the British Crown. It was then presented to Queen Victoria. Which conclusion about historical significance can be drawn from this information? The emblem of the British crown was carved onto all artifacts found by the British army. The carving on the slit drum was viewed as an unimportant addition by Kitchener's army. The carving on the slit drum is representative of British rule over African territories. The emblem of the British crown was commonly found already engraved on foreign artifacts.

Item 4
Read this excerpt from "The Think Tank" by Patricia Daniels.
THE STORY
Azy, a 21-year-old male orangutan, had been scoring 100 percent on the day's vocabulary test—until now. National Zoo biologist Rob Shumaker holds up some folded bags containing chopped fruit. "Okay, Azy—want to tell me what this is?" In front of the rusty-haired ape is a computer screen showing some symbols. Each one stands for a word. Azy lifts his long, graceful hand and points to the symbol for cup. A buzzer sounds. The screen shows an hourglass symbol that means his answer is wrong.

For the first time this afternoon, Azy seems confused. Shumaker shows him the bags again, and again the orang points to "cup". On the fourth try, Azy figures it out. He points to the symbol for "bag," and Shumaker hands him the paper bags through an opening in the Plexiglas between them. Azy picks out the fruit and reluctantly hands back the bags when the biologist asks politely, "Azy, can I have those?"

For the last three years, Shumaker has been working with Azy and five other orangutans and the Zoo's Think Tank building. In addition to these great apes, Think Tank Researchers are studying creatures as various as hermit crabs, leaf-cutter ants, and macaques. They hope to learn whether—and how—animals think. Some of the scientists look at tool use. Others observe the animals' social life. Shumaker would like to know if orangutans can learn language.

THE QUESTION
Which answer best summarizes this text?
THE ANSWERS
a.Azy is a male orangutan who is taking a vocabulary test at the National Zoo. Shumaker has been studying Azy and five other orangutans for three years to see whether the great apes can learn language. Other researchers at the Zoo's Think Tank building are studying other animals to learn more about how they think.

b.Azy is a great ape called an orangutan. He has rusty-colored hair. He is taking a vocabulary test. A researcher holds up some bags, but Azy says they are cups. He is wrong. Scientists at the Think Tank building are studying animals. Azy is one of the animals being studied. The researcher wants to know if orangutans can learn language. He is studying Azy and five other orangutans.

c.Azy is a 21-year-old male orangutan. He is taking a vocabulary test, but he gets the words "bag" and "cup" mixed up. A buzzer goes off because he is wrong. Azy has been studied like this for three years. Shumaker studies him at the Think Tank building at the zoo. Researchers are also looking at other animals to see if they can use tools and learn language and things like that. Azy is part of this study along with other orangutans and hermit crabs, leaf-cutter ants, and macaques.

d.Azy was getting 100 percent on his vocabulary test. But then the orangutan got an answer wrong. Shumaker held up some bags of fruit, but Azy picked a symbol for "cup". A buzzer went off to let him know he was wrong. Azy is actually an orangutan. Shumaker is studying Azy to see if he can learn language. He is also studying five other orangutans. Other scientists are studying macaques, ants, and hermit crabs. They want to find out if animals can use tools or have social lives. Do animals think?

I went out to the hazel wood,

Because a fire was in my head,

And cut and peeled a hazel wand,

And hooked a berry to a thread;

And when white moths were on the wing,

And moth-like stars were flickering out,

I dropped the berry in a stream

And caught a little silver trout.



When I had laid it on the floor

I went to blow the fire a-flame,

But something rustled on the floor,

And someone called me by my name:

It had become a glimmering girl

With apple blossom in her hair

Who called me by my name and ran

And faded through the brightening air.



Though I am old with wandering

Through hollow lands and hilly lands,

I will find out where she has gone,

And kiss her lips and take her hands;

And walk among long dappled grass,

And pluck till time and times are done,

The silver apples of the moon,

The golden apples of the sun.

—“The Song of Wandering Aengus,”
William Butler Yeats
