Read the excerpt from David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest.
I am seated in an office, surrounded by heads and bodies. My posture is consciously congruent to the shape of my
hard chair. This is a cold room in University Administration, wood-walled, Remington-hung, double-windowed against
the November heat, insulated from Administrative sounds by the reception area outside, at which Uncle Charles, Mr.
deLint and I were lately received.
I am in here.

Consumption of Pizza Should Be Reduced

There is perhaps no other dish that delights people as much as pizza. Pizza has the reputation of being considered one of the most satisfying foods around the world. There is no proper count to the varieties of pizza available in the world today, but it surely surpasses any other fast food. But have you ever stopped to think about the health effects of consuming pizza on a daily basis? Pizza definitely cannot be categorized as a "healthy food," yet the consumption rate of pizzas is startling. For example, 4% of pizza consumed by children in the United States is during breakfast time. Having pizza for breakfast, which is ideally the healthiest meal of the day, can only have a negative impact on the health of children. The amount of calories that children consume through pizzas is staggering, and can lead to numerous health problems. Even though children's calorie intake through pizzas has reduced considerably between 2003 and 2010, it still leads to obesity, gastrointestinal difficulties, and other health problems among children aged between 2 and 19.
According to government policy in the United States, all school meals must contain some vegetables. In 2011, the amount of tomato sauce used on pizza was enough for it to be considered a "vegetable" by the United States Government. This fact is not only absurd, but also makes something as unhealthy as pizza easily available to children in school cafeterias.
There are several reasons to avoid eating pizzas. One major reason is the increase in blood cholesterol levels that makes people prone to heart disease. This is due to the calorie and sodium content in pizza. Saturated fats in pizza cause blockages in arteries that can lead to heart attacks. Adolescents absorb an extra 230 calories, 5 grams of saturated fat, and 484 milligrams of sodium on days when they eat a pizza. These figures indicate a much higher level of intake than what is required by our body on a daily basis. This in itself is an indication that pizzas should be avoided as much as possible.
The point that nothing good comes out of eating pizzas cannot be stressed enough. Farm fresh ingredients, the best quality cheese, and the most delicious meats cannot hide the fact that pizzas ultimately do more harm than good to a person's health. A snack like pizza can never be completely removed from the diet. But through conscious effort, pizza consumption can surely be reduced considerably.

Read the excerpt from Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay entitled "Experience."
The least activity of the intellectual powers redeems us in a degree from the conditions of time. In sickness, in languor,
give us a strain of poetry, or a profound sentence, and we are refreshed; or produce a volume of Plato, or Shakspeare,
or remind us of their names, and instantly we come into a feeling of longevity. See how the deep, divine thought
reduces centuries, and millenniums, and makes itself present through all ages.
According to Emerson, which of these is immune to time?
o intellectual activity
sickness
physical activity
O memory
