(the POEM)
I look at a town of rubble beyond the passing trees.

10 Broken bricks and shattered shingles lie in a crisp grid of ruin.

This ancient village has prospered and faded, now felled by the axe of progress,

But is here for now.

Answer: c

Explanation: c

Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds to create internal rhyming within phrases or a sentence. In line 10 of Selection 2, the author uses assonance in the phrase “crisp grid of ruin” to imply the unsympathetic point of view of the town’s demolishers.

Assonance is a similarity in the sounds of words or syllables, either between vowels or between consonants. However, in American parlance, assonance between consonants is commonly referred to as consonance.

Stamp your feet and clap your hands. The repetition of the short /a/ sound is used in this example. The sun rose brightly in the sky. The /y/ and long /i/ sounds, which are interchangeable repeated vowel sounds, are used in this example.

Assonance is the repetition of a vowel sound across words within a poem's lines, resulting in internal rhymes. Crying time, hop-scotch, great flakes, between trees, and the kind knight rides by are all examples of assonance across words.

Thus, option C is correct.

The little grey mouse that lived in my wall prospered for many days on nibbles of my lunch. I'd
pack a meal before bed and, while I slept, he would take small bites of my lunch, which I left on
the counter. He'd take a cracker crumble here, and a bread crumb there, but he wouldn't take too
much and he'd always clean up after himself. Things were going quite well for him and I didn't
even know that he existed, until he got sloppy. One night while I slept, he ate all my chips and
left a big mess. When I awoke to this site, I knew what had happened to my chips. The next
night he returned for another snack. He found a nice, delicious piece of cheese... lightly balanced
on a mousetrap. Now I don't have to share my chips anymore.

Coatis are raccoon-like mammals native to South and Central America. Many people find them cute, and tourists have made a habit of offering the coatis food. Coatis realize that it is easier to seek out tourists than to search the forest for bugs. Like humans, they prefer junk food to what they should be eating. For their part, tourists do little to discourage the animals. After all, a coati drinking soda makes for a great vacation photo. Scientists, however, say that coatis and humans do best when they stay away from each other.


Coatis and tourists _________.




A persist


B interact


C respond


D negotiate

President Thomas Jefferson believed that for Americans to be virtuous and free, they needed farmland. He wanted to expand westward to create more farmland. Jefferson also wanted to obtain the Port of New Orleans at the mouth of the Mississippi River so farmers could easily transport their goods. He facilitated the purchase of New Orleans and the rest of the French territory from France in 1803 for $15 million. This new land was called the Louisiana Territory and stretched partway across the continent. It was the first step in expanding the United States. The purchase of the Louisiana Territory led to a pattern of westward expansion through payment, negotiations, and conflict.
The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and vastly increased its resources and riches. The roles of the president and the Constitution were also defined, as it was determined that the president could purchase the land without consulting Congress. Despite the advantages of expanding westward, one prominent disadvantage was the growing tension between slave states and free states regarding whether new states would permit slavery. The opportunity to grow a nation would endanger its very survival during the Civil War.



Which of the following text-based responses correctly answers the following question: How did the Louisiana purchase benefit the United States? Use both texts to find the best response. (2 points)


A) Pioneers began to farm the new land or use other natural resources. Some of these people used the Mississippi River and the Port of New Orleans to ship their products. This purchase clarified the Constitution, increased riches, and led to buying more land.

B) President Thomas Jefferson believed that for Americans to be virtuous and free, they needed to farmland. He also wanted to obtain the Port of New Orleans at the mouth of the Mississippi River, so farmers could transport their goods. The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and vastly increased its resources and riches. The roles of the president and the Constitution were also defined, as it was determined that the president could purchase the land without consulting Congress.

C) The Louisiana Purchase benefited the United States because it led to westward expansion, secure waterways, and a stronger nation. Pioneers began to farm the land or use the natural resources. Some of these people used the Mississippi River and the Port of New Orleans to ship their products. This purchase clarified the Constitution, increased riches, and led to buying more land. By strengthening the country, securing waterways, and expanding westward, the Louisiana purchase benefited the U.S.

D) The Louisiana Purchase involved the United States paying France $15 million for their territory. Americans moved into the new land and began to farm. They lived virtuous lives full of hard work and determination. The purchase doubled the size of the United States.
