Read the adapted excerpt from Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift.
"But I should have mentioned that before the principal person began his oration, he cried out three times, Langro debul san (these words,
and the former, were afterwards repeated, and explained to me). Whereupon Immediately about fifty of the inhabitants came and cut the
strings that fastened the left side of my head, which gave me the liberty of turning it to the right, and of observing the person and gesture of
him that was to speak. He appeared to be of a middle age, and taller than any of the other three who attended him, whereof one was a
page that held up his train, and seemed to be somewhat longer than my middle finger, the other two stood one on each side, to support
him. He acted every part of an orator, and I could observe many periods of threatenings, and others of promises, pity, and kindness."
Which choice provides the best objective summary of the excerpt?
A. The narrator is bound but an orator comes out and orders his ties to be cut. This orator seems to be the leader as he is dressed formally and has others to support him. All follow his commands.
B. The narrator, tied down, watches as a leader of the group orders his ties to be cut so that he can turn his head. This leader seems to issue threats but also shows kindness.
C. The narrator is very confused as he is tied and cannot move, the inhabitants are speaking a language he does not understand,
and now an orator is both threatening him and showing pity.
D. The narrator is tied down and cannot move until a leader orders his ties be cut. This leader, whom the narrator cannot understand, seems to show a variety of different moods.

Dissect and analyze the allegory of the man overboard from: "A man overboard!
What matters it? The vessel does not halt. The wind blows. That sombre ship has a path which it is
forced to pursue. It passes on.
The man disappears, then reappears; he plunges, he rises again to the surface; he calls, he stretches
out his arms; he is not heard. The vessel, trembling under the hurricane, is wholly absorbed in its own
workings; the passengers and sailors do not even see the drowning man; his miserable head is but a speck
amid the immensity of the waves. He gives vent to desperate cries from out of the depths. What a spectre
is that retreating sail! He gazes and gazes at it frantically. It retreats, it grows dim, it diminishes in size. He
was there but just now, he was one of the crew, he went and came along the deck with the rest, he had his
part of breath and of sunlight, he was a living man. Now, what has taken place? He has slipped, he has
fallen; all is at an end.
He is in the tremendous sea. Under foot he has nothing but what flees and crumbles. The billows, torn
and lashed by the wind, encompass him hideously; the tossings of the abyss bear him away; all the
tongues of water dash over his head; a populace of waves spits upon him; confused openings half devour
him; every time that he sinks, he catches glimpses of precipices filled with night; frightful and unknown
vegetations seize him, knot about his feet, draw him to them; he is conscious that he is becoming an abyss,
that he forms part of the foam; the waves toss him from one to another; he drinks in the bitterness; the
cowardly ocean attacks him furiously, to drown him; the enormity plays with his agony. It seems as
though all that water were hate.
Nevertheless, he struggles.
He tries to defend himself; he tries to sustain himself; he makes an effort; he swims. He, his petty
strength all exhausted instantly, combats the inexhaustible.
Where, then, is the ship? Yonder. Barely visible in the pale shadows of the horizon.
The wind blows in gusts; all the foam overwhelms him. He raises his eyes and beholds only the
lividness of the clouds. He witnesses, amid his death-pangs, the immense madness of the sea. He is
tortured by this madness; he hears noises strange to man, which seem to come from beyond the limits of
the earth, and from one knows not what frightful region beyond.
LES MISÉRABLES 114
There are birds in the clouds, just as there are angels above human distresses; but what can they do
for him? They sing and fly and float, and he, he rattles in the death agony.
He feels himself buried in those two infinities, the ocean and the sky, at one and the same time: the
one is a tomb; the other is a shroud.
Night descends; he has been swimming for hours; his strength is exhausted; that ship, that distant
thing in which there were men, has vanished; he is alone in the formidable twilight gulf; he sinks, he
stiffens himself, he twists himself; he feels under him the monstrous billows of the invisible; he shouts.
There are no more men. Where is God?
He shouts. Help! Help! He still shouts on.
Nothing on the horizon; nothing in heaven.
He implores the expanse, the waves, the seaweed, the reef; they are deaf. He beseeches the tempest;
the imperturbable tempest obeys only the infinite.
Around him darkness, fog, solitude, the stormy and nonsentient tumult, the undefined curling of
those wild waters. In him horror and fatigue. Beneath him the depths. Not a point of support. He thinks of
the gloomy adventures of the corpse in the limitless shadow. The bottomless cold paralyzes him. His
hands contract convulsively; they close, and grasp nothingness. Winds, clouds, whirlwinds, gusts, useless
stars! What is to be done? The desperate man gives up; he is weary, he chooses the alternative of death; he
resists not; he lets himself go; he abandons his grip; and then he tosses forevermore in the lugubrious
dreary depths of engulfment.
Oh, implacable march of human societies! Oh, losses of men and of souls on the way! Ocean into
which falls all that the law lets slip! Disastrous absence of help! Oh, moral death!
The sea is the inexorable social night into which the penal laws fling their condemned. The sea is the
immensity of wretchedness.
The soul, going down stream in this gulf, may become a corpse. Who shall resuscitate it?"

This Mystery Rocks! By Cyntha Schlagel

1The Drifting Rocks are a strange phenomenon still unexplained by science. 2Located in Death Valley, California, the rocks sit on hot, flat ground. 3Unlike normal rocks, they have trails etched behind them as if they have traveled across the sand. 4Some trails are only a few feet. 5Some trails are over half a mile long. 6Each trail is as baffling as the next.

7The variety of rock movement has baffled scientists for decades. 8Some rocks seem to roll as they move forward. 9Some take unexplainable routes. 10Large ones have traveled past small ones that have stayed still. 11Some scientists suggest that the rocks are pushed by the wind. 12Others believe they slide on small amounts of ice or mud. 13So far, research has not confirmed any theory.

Which sentence BEST summarizes paragraph 4? in A Touch of Glass

by Mia Soto

As a result of this new technique, glass objects of many sizes and shapes could be made quickly. Ordinary people, not just the very rich, could now purchase glass. Early glassmakers figured out how to make colored glass by adding different ingredients. They learned how to make beautiful cameos.

The Roman Empire encouraged the production of beautiful and functional glass objects.


A.
All of the glassmakers in Venice were sent to the island of Murano to make Cameo glass.

B.
The many properties of glass make it a unique commodity that was available to just the very rich.

I awoke to a thunderous sound in the middle of the night and sat up as straight as a board. I climbed slowly out of bed surrounded by a curtain of darkness. Usually, my nightlight would provide some sort of visual path for my eyes, but not this time. I stumbled as blind as a bat down the hall to my parent's room. I knocked my knuckles on their door and heard my dad's deep voice answer through the closed door. I told him about the sound I had heard and that my nightlight was not working. Opening the door, he said the electricity probably went out and that it would probably be back on in the morning. Because I was a scared rabbit, he let me climb into bed with him and Mom until morning. Tucked tightly under the covers between Mom and Dad, I felt as safe as a turtle hiding in its shell. Because I was a scared rabbit, he let me climb into bed with him and Mom. Based on the context, what does the sentence tell the reader about the dad? A. He probably has not slept much. B. He is a sympathetic person. C. He is also scared of the dark also. D. He enjoys helping small animals.
