Read the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis.”

When he was two, if you laid him on his stomach, he began to try to move himself, straining terribly. The doctor said that with his weak heart this strain would probably kill him, but it didn’t. Trembling, he’d push himself up, turning first red, then a soft purple, and finally collapse back onto the bed like an old worn-out doll. I can still see Mama watching him, her hand pressed tight across her mouth, her eyes wide and unblinking. But he learned to crawl (it was his third winter), and we brought him out of the front bedroom, putting him on the rug before the fireplace. For the first time he became one of us.

How do lines 8-9 contribute to the overall meaning of the poem?





No man is an island entire of itself; every man

is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;

if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe

is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as

well as any manner of thy friends or of thine

own were; any man's death diminishes me,

because I am involved in mankind.

And therefore never send to know for whom

the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

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.


—The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone,

James Cross Giblin


Based on the passage, what did Champollion discover about the hieroglyphs on the Rosetta Stone? Write one to two sentences explaining his discovery in your own words.

0 “Sometimes he thought of Judge Miller’s big house in the sun-kissed Santa Clara Valley, and of the cement swimming-tank, and Ysabel, the Mexican hairless, and Toots, the Japanese pug. . . .”

0 “About his body there was a peculiar springiness, or resiliency, almost catlike, and a quick alertness as of one who lived in perpetual fear of things seen and unseen.”

0 “With the last remnant of his strength he managed to stagger along behind till the train made another stop, when he floundered past the sleds to his own, where he stood alongside Sol-leks. His driver lingered. . . .”

Part B

Which excerpts best support the answer in Part A?

Select the two correct answers.


1."'To think it will soon be June!' grumbled Bilbo, as he splashed along behind the others in a very muddy track. It was after tea-time; it was pouring with rain, and had been all day; his hood was dripping into his eyes, his cloak was full of water; the pony was tired and stumbled on stones; the others were too grumpy to talk. 'And I’m sure the rain has got into the dry clothes and into the food-bags,” thought Bilbo. 'Bother burgling and everything to do with it!'"

2."'What I say,' said Bilbo gasping. 'And please don’t cook me, kind sirs! I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean. I’ll cook beautifully for you, a perfectly beautiful breakfast for you, if only you won’t have me for supper.'

3.'Poor little blighter,' said William. He had already had as much supper as he could hold; also he had had lots of beer. 'Poor little blighter! Let him go!'


4."'My dear fellow,' said he, 'whenever are you going to come? What about an early start?--and here you are, having breakfast, or whatever you call it, at half past ten! They left you the message, because they could not wait.'

'What message?' said poor Mr. Baggins all in a fluster.


5."The washing-up was so dismally real that Bilbo was forced to believe the party of the night before had not been part of his bad dreams, as he had rather hoped. Indeed he was really relieved after all to think that they had all gone without him, and without bothering to wake him up ('but with never a thank-you' he thought)..."

Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz.

The diary of Anne Frank is a legacy Miep Gies gave not just to Otto Frank, but to the world. It's been translated into some 65 languages and remains one of the best read books internationally. To the end of her century of life, Gies said she thought with sadness every day about the friends she had lost.
On her website she wrote it was her greatest sorrow that she and the others had been unable to save Anne, but she was pleased they'd been able to give the young woman two more years of life, and in that period Gies noted, Anne had written the diary with her message of tolerance and understanding.

What is the purpose of this excerpt?

to honor Miep Gies and share her history with the audience
to tell an interesting story and encourage people to help others
to preserve the memory of Anne Frank and advocate tolerance
to promote doing the right thing and remember the Holocaust
