The number of people taking up the sport of running has increased significantly over the last 10 years. Sports experts give many reasons for the rise in the popularity of running. Because many people want to save money, they are avoiding paying fitness center dues and choosing instead to pound the pavement in running shoes and clothing, which are relatively inexpensive. Creative racing opportunities are also a draw for new runners. For example, adventure runs offer participants a chance to run through mud or outdistance zombies. Basically, running offers a new way to have fun while sweating.

As he thought about the hieroglyphs in Thothmes' and Ramesses' names, Champollion realized their significance. It went far beyond the names themselves and gave him an insight into the entire system of hieroglyphic writing. For the names revealed that hieroglyphs were not simply representations of sounds. Nor did they have an exclusively symbolic meaning, as Thomas Young and other scholars had long believed. Instead, they were a combination of the two.

Read this paragraph from "The Day the Gulls Went Crazy."

Most colonial birds also defend their nests by "mobbing" predators. When one bird in a colony spots a predator, it flies up and sounds an alarm. All the nearby birds then fly up and give alarm calls too. If the alarm is strong enough, it travels through the colony like a wave. Soon most of the birds in the colony are airborne. The alarmed birds scream, dive-bomb, and harass the predator to drive it away. People who walk near colonies of nesting birds often get mobbed in the same way that a fox, a coyote, or an eagle might. The gulls' reaction to Larry was nothing more than an intense display of their natural behavior toward a feared predator.


Question 1

Part A

Which inference can be drawn from the paragraph from "The Day the Gulls Went Crazy"?

Colonial birds have a weak response toward predators.
Birds lack the ability to communicate with each other.
Nesting colonial birds may consider people a threat.

Question 2

Part B

"If the alarm is strong enough, it travels through the colony like a wave."
"People who walk near colonies of nesting birds often get mobbed in the same way that a fox, a coyote, or an eagle might."
"The alarmed birds scream, dive-bomb, and harass the predator to drive it away."
"When one bird in a colony spots a predator, it flies up and sounds an alarm."
