Warm-Up
Which two excerpts are examples of persuasive text?
Select the correct excerpt.
excerpt 1
Early that morning, a young, blue-eyed detective in a belge coat stood in the open doorway of the motel room,
closing an umbrella. A friend on the police force had secretly allowed the detective to enter the room with the
understanding that nothing would be touched. Though this restriction made the job more difficult, the confident
detective knew that well-trained
eyes could find a lot of clues on their own. Suddenly, the detective was nearly
knocked off balance by a muddy dog chasing a black cat into the room.
excerpt 2
The minimum age for obtaining a driver's license should be lowered from 16 to 15. If 15-year-olds can drive with a
special driver's permit, why not just lower the legal age for a license to 15? Since most 15-year-olds are getting ready
to get a job anyway, they need a license earlier so they can start looking for employment. Most importantly,
if 15-year-olds were allowed to drive earlier, we would need fewer school buses. Students could start driving
themselves to school a year earlier.
excerpt 3
Like me, you probably could make the move. The move, that is, to eat better meals and to do something active
every day. It's definitely made me feel better. I've even improved my grades as a result. In fact, I've done well on my
last three geometry tests. It just may be that healthy veggie burger and a walk after dinnerl My dad and I are proud.
When are you going to make the move?
excerpt 4
The shabby, old piano had belonged to Lani's grandmother and, from the look of it had belonged to others before
her. The piano stood neglected in the living room until Lani was two-years-old and had grown tall enough to reach
the keys. Lani couldn't see them, but she knew the plano keys were magical. Even then, she felt reverence for the
piano as she touched it gently, never banging on the keys.

Read the excerpt from part 2 of "Flowers for Algernon."

I must not become emotional. The facts and the results of my experiments are clear, and the more sensational aspects of my own rapid climb cannot obscure the fact that the tripling of intelligence by the surgical technique developed by Drs. Strauss and Nemur must be viewed as having little or no practical applicability (at the present time) to the increase of human intelligence.

How does Charlie’s intelligence at this point in the story advance the plot?

It prompts him to ask Dr. Strauss to help him prevent his memory loss.
It helps him understand that he must eventually get his old job back.
It makes him feel sad and regretful about his decision to participate in the study.
It allows him to understand how and why he is losing many of his new abilities.
