SAM: Of course it is. That's what I‘ve been trying to say to you all afternoon. And it‘s beautiful because that is what we want life to be like. But instead, like you said, Hally, we‘re bumping into each other all the time. Look at the three of us this afternoon: I‘ve bumped into Willie, the two of us have bumped into you, you‘ve bumped into your mother, she bumping into your Dad . . . None of us knows the steps and there's no music playing. And it doesn‘t stop with us. The whole world is doing it all the time. Open a newspaper and what do you read? America has bumped into Russia. England is bumping into India, rich man bumps into poor man. Those are big collisions, Hally. They make for a lot of bruises. People get hurt in all that bumping, and we‘re sick and tired of it now. It's been going on for too long. Are we never going to get it right? . . . learn to dance life like champions instead of always being just a bunch of beginners at it? HALLY: (Deep and sincere admiration of the man.) You've got a vision, Sam! What effect does this excerpt from Fugard's "Master Harold" . . . and the Boys have?

What is the author attempting to convey to the reader using sensory language?

The bagel data also reflect how much personal mood seems to affect honesty. Weather, for instance, is a major factor. Unseasonably pleasant weather inspires people to pay at a higher rate. Unseasonably cold weather, meanwhile, makes people cheat prolifically; so do heavy rain and wind. Worst are the holidays. The week of Christmas produces a 2 percent drop in payment rates—again, a 15 percent increase in theft, an effect on the same magnitude, in reverse, as that of 9/11. Thanksgiving is nearly as bad; the week of Valentine’s Day is also lousy, as is the week straddling April 15. There are, however, a few good holidays: the weeks that include the Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Columbus Day. The difference in the two sets of holidays? The low-cheating holidays represent little more than an extra day off from work. The high-cheating holidays are fraught with miscellaneous anxieties and the high expectations of loved ones.


Based on the excerpt, the conclusion that “personal mood seems to affect honesty” is best supported by which of the following statements?

Relaxing summer and fall holidays generally cause payment rates to drop.

Stressful fall and winter holidays generally cause payment rates to drop.

Relaxing summer and fall holidays generally cause theft rates to increase.

Stressful fall and winter holidays generally cause theft rates to remain steady.

Read the excerpts from The Red Badge of Courage. In the first excerpt, Henry Fleming is fighting in his first battle. In the second excerpt, Henry is deserting his regiment.

Excerpt 1:

Perspiration streamed down the youth’s face, which was soiled like that of a weeping urchin. He frequently, with a nervous movement, wiped his eyes with his coat sleeve. His mouth was still a little ways open.

He got the one glance at the foe-swarming field in front of him, and instantly ceased to debate the question of his piece being loaded. Before he was ready to begin—before he had announced to himself that he was about to fight—he threw the obedient well-balanced rifle into position and fired a first wild shot. Directly he was working at his weapon like an automatic affair.

Excerpt 2:

To the youth it was an onslaught of redoubtable dragons. He became like the man who lost his legs at the approach of the red and green monster. He waited in a sort of a horrified, listening attitude. He seemed to shut his eyes and wait to be gobbled.

A man near him who up to this time had been working feverishly at his rifle suddenly stopped and ran with howls. A lad whose face had borne an expression of exalted courage, the majesty of he who dares give his life, was, at an instant, smitten abject. He blanched like one who has come to the edge of a cliff at midnight and is suddenly made aware. There was a revelation. He, too, threw down his gun and fled. There was no shame in his face. He ran like a rabbit.

Others began to scamper away through the smoke. The youth turned his head, shaken from his trance by this movement as if the regiment was leaving him behind. He saw the few fleeting forms.

Which quotation shows the effect of Henry’s changed perspective?

“Perspiration streamed down the youth’s face, which was soiled like that of a weeping urchin.”
“. . . he threw the obedient well-balanced rifle into position and fired a first wild shot.”
“He blanched like one who has come to the edge of a cliff at midnight and is suddenly made aware.”
“The youth turned his head, shaken from his trance by this movement as if the regiment was leaving him behind.”

"The baby's just there, in the bed," Wiley's mama said.
"Is that man gone, Mama?" he asked his good mama.

Read the excerpt from "How I Learned English.”

I played on till dusk
Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders
And calling out in desperation things like
"Yours” and "take it,” but doing all right,
Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set.
"Hum baby” sweetly on my lips.

The reader can tell that this excerpt is part of the poem’s resolution, because the speaker

finally feels a sense of belonging.

no longer wants to get home before dusk.
