Read this excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”

Tortillas and poetry. They go hand in hand. Books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. Our distinct cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures, we become freer and freer. . . .

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:

There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.

Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.

What was the theme of The Pied Piper of Hamelin?

Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics.

There is a tale, “The Ring of Gyges,” that Feldman sometimes tells his economist friends. It comes from Plato’s Republic. A student named Glaucon offered the story in response to a lesson by Socrates—who, like Adam Smith, argued that people are generally good even without enforcement. Glaucon, like Feldman’s economist friends, disagreed. He told of a shepherd named Gyges who stumbled upon a secret cavern with a corpse inside that wore a ring. When Gyges put on the ring, he found that it made him invisible. With no one able to monitor his behavior, Gyges proceeded to do woeful things—seduce the queen, murder the king, and so on. Glaucon’s story posed a moral question: could any man resist the temptation of evil if he knew his acts could not be witnessed? Glaucon seemed to think the answer was no. But Paul Feldman sides with Socrates and Adam Smith—for he knows the answer, at least 87 percent of the time, is yes.

Feldman reaches the conclusion that most people are honest without receiving an incentive by
A)making a claim about his individual experiences and looking for evidence.
B)making a broad generalization about morality and looking for evidence.
C)studying his individual experiences and arriving at a broad generalization.
D)studying a counterclaim about morality and arriving at a broad generalization.
