Read the passage:

Adult sea otters spend more than a third of their day grooming their fur. This isn't for vanity; it's for survival. Unlike most sea mammals, sea otters do not have an inner layer of fat to protect them from the cold waters. These creatures rely on their dense fur instead to protect them from the often freezing temperatures. Sea otters have one of the thickest furs in all of the animal kingdom. An adult sea otter's coat can contain up to 1 billion individual hairs! These hairs form a protective, waterproof layer, which traps air and provides insulation. It is crucial that a sea otter's fur is kept clean to maintain this insulating layer between the water and their skin.

Read the following excerpt from the story Hummingbird and Heron:

Hummingbird zoomed past Heron as soon as the race began. He flew so far ahead that he lost sight of her behind him. He slowed down as he passed a patch of wildflowers. They smelled so sweet that he had to stop and look at them more closely. Hummingbird just had to try some of their nectar. He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves.

It was late in the day when Hummingbird woke up. He stretched his wings and glanced at the sky. He could just make out the shape of Heron, flying slowly but surely toward the dead tree. She was almost done with the race! Hummingbird zipped into the air and flew as fast as he could, but it was too late. Heron reached the tree first. From that day forward, Heron owned the fish, and Hummingbird lived on nectar.

How might the theme change if Hummingbird had decided to keep racing instead of taking a nap?

The theme might be appearances are deceiving.
The theme might be cheaters never prosper.
The theme might be friendship is a treasure.
The theme might be the fastest racer wins.

Keats's poem is a sonnet. On first looking into Chapman's Homer Much have I travell'd in the realms of gold, And many goodly states and kingdoms seen; Round many western islands have I been Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold. Oft of one wide expanse had I been told [5] That deep-brow'd Homer ruled as his demesne; Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold: Then felt I like some watcher of the skies When a new planet swims into his ken, [10] Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes He star'd at the Pacific-and all his men Look'd at each other with a wild surmise- a Silent, upon a peak in Darien. -John Keats

Read the passage:

The graceful hawksbill sea turtle is found throughout the world's tropical oceans, especially in the diverse ecosystems of coral reefs. They are named after their narrow heads and pointed beaks. These reptiles are significant, as they have been swimming the Earth's seas for the last 100 million years. These turtles are essential to maintaining marine ecosystems, play an important role within the culture of people, and have great tourism value. The hawksbill sea turtle is known for its stunning, colorful, mosaic-like shell. These turtles are frequently hunted for their shells, which are sold in markets. They are used for home decoration, jewelry, and furniture. Due to the popularity of their shells, the hawksbill sea turtle population has declined by more than 80 percent. This rapid decrease because of human activities has put this species on the critically endangered list.
