Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."

Nixon: Where, then, do we disagree? I think we disagree on the implication of his remarks tonight and on the statements that he has made on many occasions during his campaign to the effect that the United States has been standing still. We heard tonight, for example, the statement made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world. Now last year, of course, was 1958. That happened to be a recession year. But when we look at the growth of G.N.P. this year, a year of recovery, we find that it's six and nine-tenths per cent and one of the highest in the world today. More about that later.

Kennedy: This is a great country, but I think it could be a greater country; and this is a powerful country, but I think it could be a more powerful country. I'm not satisfied to have fifty percent of our steel-mill capacity unused. I'm not satisfied when the United States had last year the lowest rate of economic growth of any major industrialized society in the world. Because economic growth means strength and vitality; it means we're able to sustain our defenses; it means we're able to meet our commitments abroad.
On what point do Kennedy and Nixon disagree?

A. Kennedy thinks America is progressing; Nixon thinks America is in a recession.


B. Nixon thinks America is progressing; Kennedy thinks America is standing still.


C. Nixon thinks America needs to increase trade with Peking, China; Kennedy thinks America should strike out at China and Russia (the Kremlin).

how does the poems use of imagery develop the theme of the poem? cite evidence from the text in your answer.

the poem:
My heart be brave, and do not falter so,
Nor utter more that deep, despairing wail.
Thy way is very dark and drear I know,
But do not let thy strength and courage fail;
For certain as the raven-winged night
Is followed by the bright and blushing morn,
Thy coming morrow will be clear and bright;
’Tis darkest when the night is furthest worn.
Look up, and out, beyond, surrounding clouds,
And do not in thine own gross darkness grope,
Rise up, and casting off thy hind’ring shrouds,
Cling thou to this, and ever inspiring hope:
Tho’ thick the battle and tho’ fierce the fight,
There is a power making for the right.

(MC)
I MET a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Which of the following would be an additional example of situational irony?

(10 points)

A. Learning the traveler did not expect to see a broken statue in the desert

B. Learning the traveler found more ruins

C. Learning the king expected his statue to crumble

D. Learning the king knew he would be forgotten as time passed

Read the excerpt from "Everest Then and Now."


The first attempt to climb Everest was made by British climbers George Mallory and Guy Bullock in 1921. The pair did not make it to the top of the mountain, nor did the many who made attempts in the several decades that followed. A strange and ambitious quest occurred in 1933. A British millionaire named Lady Houston funded a mission involving a formation of British aircraft that flew over the peak of Everest. Their plan was to drop the British flag on the summit of the mountain. It was the first flight over Everest, but not the first journey to the peak by foot. The first climbers to summit Everest were New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, a local climber from Nepal. A handful of other climbers made a few more successful summits in the decade that followed. On May 1, 1963, Jim Whittaker was the first American to stand atop Everest and look down at the clouds.


How would the information be different if the excerpt were told from a first-person point of view?

1 The author might give his or her feelings about the attempts and might give an opinion about why it was hard for people to reach the summit.

2 The author might give more details about Jim Whittaker's excursion and the challenges he faced while trying to reach the summit.

3 The author might give more details about the type of British aircraft that was used by the millionaire Lady Houston's mission to fly over the summit.

4 The author might give more information about hikers who have reached the summit more recently and what countries they came from.

Every day for four years, I would drive to my job, and every day at the same time, on the same route, I would notice the city bus. It would pull up next to me, and I would see all the people on board. Some would be reading. Some would be sleeping. Some would stare back at me. Every day, at the same time, it would follow me right to work. As I pulled into my parking space at work, I would see it around the corner, about a block away from my job. Then, one day, my car broke down. I had no way to get to work, and then, I remembered the bus. I decided to take it since I knew it was on the same schedule as I was. Since then, I have never driven to work again. Taking the bus is a useful method with which to travel because you can save a lot of money by using public transportation.
One reason public transportation is useful is because it saves money. My commute to work was long, and it required a lot of gas. When I drove to work, I was spending $30 a week on gas. There are 52 weeks in a year. That translates to $1,560.00 a year I was spending on gas to get to work. When I started taking the bus, it cost $2 ($1 to get to work and another $1 to get home). Another way to save money is to use the toll road. That translates to $10 a week. That means that it cost me $520 a year to get to work. That's less than a third of what it cost to drive. It saved me $1,040.00. The funny part is that the reason my car broke down in the first place was because I was driving it constantly.

Which statement best supports the main idea of the passage?
A.
The bus costs $10 a week, while driving a car costs $30 a week.
B.
Cars break down when they are not driven all the time.
C.
Toll roads are convenient, fun ways to drive to work and miss traffic.
D.
Driving the toll road to work costs much less than driving in traffic.

SOMEONE HELP MEH!!!!

Part of the pride of being an American comes from the fact that most people that want jobs have jobs. However, this is not always the case. Sometimes, as happened in 2008, the economy slows down, and jobs become harder to find or keep. Businesses make less money and so can keep fewer people employed. Those people who lost their jobs then have less money to spend. Because they have less money to spend, other businesses make less money, and then they, too, have to cut workers. In the United States, these cycles always end and the economy recovers, but it can take a while.
People have to get creative about making money if they lose their jobs. Sometimes, they can use the skills they used at their old jobs to make money independently. For example, people don’t buy many car stereos when the economy is bad. So, car stereo stores have to layoff some of their stereo installers. If an installer has a place to work, that person can install stereos without a store. Often, this person will charge less than the store where he or she used to work. Also, the installer will get to keep all of the money he or she charged. At the store where the installer used to work, the store would have made most of the money.
During hard times, it is important to be open-minded. There are always ways to make money outside of a formal job, if a person is willing to do things he or she wouldn’t normally do. A computer programmer, for example, might not be able to find work as a computer programmer. However, if the programmer is good with his or her hands, he or she may be able to find work in construction. Lawns never stop growing, and many aspects of life do not stop just because the economy has slowed down. A person who lost a job at a supermarket may be able to mow lawns for money, or do many other things.
Most importantly, a person who loses a job must not give up. One’s attitude is very important in determining if he or she will be successful. A hopeful person is more likely to find a new job. Also, a hopeful person will be better able to keep trying new things. A hopeful person, too, can be patient. The jobs will come back. They always do.

Which sentence supports the idea that people can use the skills they used at their old jobs to make money independently?
A.
"So, car stereo stores have to layoff some of their stereo installers."
B.
"If an installer has a place to work, that person can install stereos without a store."
C.
"At the store where the installer used to work, the store would have made most of the money."
D.
"Often, this person will charge less than the store where he or she used to work."

Coming Mr. Squrials way is something unbelievable. It haunts him to this day.
It was an Occluded front!
It was the middle of fall when Mr.Squral was gathering food for the winter.
But suddenly, the air became cold, and clouds started to form. "It sure is getting chilly out here. Oh nuts, a rainstorm's here."
"But wait, I can't leave my food out here. They'll get soaked."
While Mr. Squral was debating whether or not to leave his food, it started to rain heavily. "Oh, what to do, what to do."
Five minutes later, the squirrel made the decision to run into shelter.
After three days of non-stop rain, the rain came to a halt. And the squirrel wanted to take a look at his food.
And when he came across them, they were sunken into the mud. And Mr.Squral wasn't having it.
"NOOOOOOO!"
