Read the following statement and quote, and choose the elaboration that best supports it.
Students should not have to wear uniforms because they need to be able to express themselves. According to the text, "Clothing choices are a crucial form of self-expression. Allowing students to choose their clothing is an empowering message from the schools that a student is a maturing person who is entitled to the most basic self-determination."

a. This shows that clothing choices are a crucial form of self-expression. This proves that students should have to wear uniforms because they need to be able to express themselves to mature and be entitled. Students need to be able to be themselves and pick out their own clothes and wear what they want to wear.

b. This shows that when students can choose their own clothes, they are empowered to be themselves. This proves that students should not have to wear uniforms because by expressing themselves, students can feel comfortable and strive for success without having to worry about what they are wearing.

c. This shows that students need to express themselves and choose their own clothes. This proves students should not wear uniforms.

d. This is important because students need to express themselves to fulfill their most basic needs and they won't feel motivated or attempt to be successful without it.

You have read several myths from early North American cultures. What feature do these myths have in common?
They are about powerful sky gods.
They encourage lying.
They feature animal characters.
They are based on science.

These are the storys
In the days when there were only animals on Earth, there was darkness everywhere―except in the tepee of an old chief. He owned all the light, fire, and water, which left everyone else in the world pretty miserable. The other animals pleaded with the old chief for light, but he would give them none. Therefore, they tried to get it by trickery.

All the animals put on their masks and their dancing aprons and went to the old chief's lodge for a dance. He did not invite them. They went. They were going to get light one way or another.

Each animal sang its own song. Fox kept singing, Khain, khain, khain, so the other animals decided to call him Khain, which means, "He cries for daylight."

The old chief steadily refused to share his light, yet the animals continued singing, each its own song in its own language. All of the songs meant Light, light, light, light!

The animals sang so loudly and so steadily that light began to steal up into the sky, like a faint dawn. The old chief saw it. At once he shouted, Let there not be . . . ! Let there not be . . !

Had the chief finished his sentence and said light, light would have come. Instead, the light disappeared at once below the edge of the sky.

The animals, though, kept on dancing and singing―they hoped to tire out the old chief. And again, light began to steal into the sky. This time the old chief saw what was happening. He became so upset and distracted that the noise of the singing confused him, and he shouted, Let there be―light!

Immediately the light came up into the sky, where it has been ever since―except at night, of course, when it belongs only to the chief.


An emu egg was hurled up to the sky and struck a great pile of wood which had been gathered by a cloud man named Ngoudenout. The egg hit the wood with such force that the pile instantly burst into flame, and it flooded the Earth with the soft, warm light of dawn.

The flowers were so surprised that they lifted their sleepy heads to the sky and opened their petals so wide that the glistening dewdrops which night had given them fell to the ground and were lost.

The little birds twittered excitedly on the trees, and the fairies, who kept the snow on the mountain tops, forgot their task and allowed the snow to thaw and run into the rivers and creeks. And what was the cause of this excitement?

Away to the east, far over the mountains, the purple shadows of night were turning grey; the soft, pink-tinted clouds floated slowly across the sky like red-breasted birds winging their way to a far land. Along the dim sky-line a path of golden fire marked the parting of the grey shadows, and down in the valley, the white mist was hiding the pale face of night.

Like a sleeper stirring softly at the warm touch of a kiss, all living things of the bush stirred at the caress of dawn. The Sun rose with golden splendor in a clear blue sky, and, with its coming, the first day dawned. At first the wood pile burned slowly, but the heat increased, until at noonday it was thoroughly ablaze. But gradually it burnt lower and lower, until at twilight only a heap of glowing embers remained. These embers slowly turned cold and grey. The purple shadows and white mists came from their hiding-places, and once again the mantle of night was over the land.

When Ngoudenout saw what a splendid thing the Sun was, he determined to give it to us forever. At night, when the fire of the Sun has burnt out, he goes to a dark forest in the sky and collects a great pile of wood. At dawn he lights it, and it burns feebly until noonday is reached, then it slowly burns away until twilight and night falls. Ngoudenout, the eternal wood gatherer, then makes his lonely way to the forest for the wood that will light the fire of the Sun for the next day.

Read the article "Overcoming Difficulties: How Helen Keller Learned to Communicate" and answer the question.

Every day, millions of people worldwide use their mouths to speak, their ears to hear, and their eyes to see. However, not all people have those abilities. Some are born without the ability to speak, see, or hear. Others lose one or all of these abilities due to illness or accident. Not being able to communicate can be a major obstacle, but people who overcome these challenges are often determined, resourceful, and dedicated to helping others. Instead, people who have to overcome these challenges are often determined, resourceful, and dedicated to helping others.

A Great Teacher

One person who did not allow her disability to limit her was Helen Keller. Keller, who became blind and deaf at the age of one and a half due to illness, learned at a very young age that her life was going to be different. As a child in the late 1800s, she did not have access to the technology we have today that assists people with disabilities in their daily lives. Instead, she had a very dedicated and creative teacher who stuck with Keller throughout her life. This teacher's name was Anne Sullivan. As a result of Sullivan's dedication and Keller's own determination, she learned when many thought she could not.

Learning How to Communicate

Sullivan helped her learn to communicate by using the resources and abilities Keller did have. Keller could touch, taste, and smell. Sullivan taught her to associate hand movements with words. She would spell words on Keller's hand while having her touch the related object. By associating a physical object with the hand movements, Helen learned the meaning of countless words. Learning to speak was tackled in a similar way. By feeling lips as they moved, Keller learned how to use her lips to form words. Using such innovative techniques and the resources available to her opened whole new worlds for Keller's learning. Sullivan encouraged and mentored Keller, never letting her give up and always believing the best for her.

An Inspiration to Others

Another way Keller learned to communicate was through writing. As an adult, she attended Radcliffe College, which allowed her to advance her education, even though many people doubted her ability to be successful. While she was there, she wrote her autobiography, which told the world about her struggles and accomplishments. She was able to share her story through Braille, a form of writing using raised dots felt with the fingers. Throughout her entire college career, Anne Sullivan was beside her, encouraging Keller and interpreting the words she could not see and the sounds she could not hear. Helen Keller's perseverance and Anne Sullivan's dedication became an inspiration for many children and adults around the world.

Helen Keller went on to be a successful author and teacher. She became a mentor to other children and adults living with disabilities. To this day, Keller is remembered for her determination, resourcefulness, and dedication that helped her to overcome obstacles and inspire others.

Which details best support the claim that Keller learned to communicate successfully?

A She eventually became a traveling motivational speaker.
B She went to college and wrote her own autobiography.
C She helped to develop modern American Sign Language.
D She was a favorite playmate among the neighbor children.
