A Special Evening

I was a server at a fancy restaurant for about four years. I was pretty good at waiting tables, so I made good tips. People didn't take much notice of me as I refilled drinks or cleared empty plates. They just kept talking. Other times, a guest asked me to help make his or her loved one feel special. I always enjoyed helping people celebrate important occasions.
One evening, a young man brought his date to the restaurant. He treated her well—held the door open for her, slid her chair out, and pushed her chair in. I couldn't tell if it was their first date or not. The man seemed very anxious, but the woman seemed at ease. When the woman left the table, the man frantically waved for my attention. I rushed over and asked if he needed something.
"I'm going to propose to my girlfriend. I need your help. When you bring the dessert, put this ring on top of the cake. Then, I will get down on one knee. Please make sure that nothing happens to the ring. It cost a fortune," the man said.
"Sure thing, man. I'll take good care of the ring. Good luck," I said as I put it in my pocket.
I was happy when I saw the couple laughing and holding hands. I was pretty sure that the young woman would accept the proposal. Finally, it was time to bring the dessert. Eagerly, I went to the kitchen and placed the diamond ring on top of a slice of cheesecake. Then, I had a brilliant idea of how to make the presentation even more special. I went to the storage room to get a candle and a lighter. When I returned to the kitchen, the cheesecake with the diamond ring was gone. Just as I reached the front of the restaurant to see if another server had taken it, I heard, "Yes! Robert, I will marry you!"
Anxiously, I looked to see who had accepted the marriage proposal. I saw a happy-looking middle-aged woman admiring the diamond ring on her finger and a stunned-looking middle-aged man with his mouth hanging open in disbelief. Then, I noticed the guest who had given me the ring. He looked horrified. His face was pale and his eyes were bulging from their sockets. I glanced at his girlfriend. She was smiling and watching the woman with the diamond ring. She had no idea that the ring had been meant for her.
I wasn't quite sure what to do. I suppose that my flight or fight response kicked in. I untied my apron, ran out the door, and never went back.


A. The narrator tells the story without becoming involved.

B. The narrator shows that the events personally affect him.

C. The narrator makes excuses about his lack of courage.

Read the excerpt from Frida Kahlo by Hedda Garza.

Then she turned to the mirror on her canopy and painted the first of many self-portraits, a gift for Alex Gómez, who was still avoiding her. She completed the portrait in time for the first anniversary of the bus accident. It portrayed her in perfect health and wearing an elegant red velvet dress. . . . "Put it in a low place so that you can see it as if you are looking at me,” she wrote in her note accompanying the portrait.


The friendship between Kahlo and Gómez resumed, but their romance was apparently dead. In March 1927, Gómez, now studying law, left for a work-study program in Germany, telling Kahlo he would return in July. As he was about to depart, he claimed falsely that an aunt was having surgery and he had to rush off to help her, avoiding a personal farewell at Kahlo’s bedside.

Which response to the excerpt is an opinion?

Alex Gómez was unkind and dishonest.
Kahlo and Gomez’s romance failed even though they remained friends.
Kahlo painted a self-portrait in which she looked healthy and elegant.
Alex Gómez studied law in Germany.

why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

The Tortoise and the Hare An adaptation of a West African folktale 1“I bet I can beat you in a race,” Tortoise told Hare. Hare laughed. “You cannot beat me,” she said. 2“Yes, I can. I dare you to race me.” Hare agreed and then laughed some more. They chose a date and time for the race. They planned to race along a path in the forest. The day of the race arrived and several animals came to watch. The race began and Hare whizzed by, eager to win and end the race. Tortoise had many cousins who looked just like him. One was at the starting line. The others were waiting at different places along the path. Tortoise was hiding in a bush near the finish line. 3As Hare turned a corner, she saw one of Tortoise’s cousins ahead of her. She thought that this was Tortoise. “How did you get ahead of me?” Hare asked. 4“I walk slowly, but I run very fast—so fast that you did not see me pass by,” replied Tortoise’s cousin. 5Hare ran even faster. As she turned another corner, she once again saw one of Tortoise’s cousins ahead of her. Once again, she thought this was Tortoise. “How did you get ahead of me this time?” Hare asked. 6“I ran so fast that you did not see me pass by,” replied the cousin. This kept on happening until Hare reached the finish line. Tortoise had already crossed it. Tortoise had won the race. The Tortoise and the Hare An adaption of a Greek fable by Aesop 1Once upon a time, a hare saw a tortoise in the forest. As usual, the tortoise moved very slowly. “I could have run to the other side of the lake by now,” bragged the hare. 2”You think so?” asked the tortoise. “Let’s race.” 3The hare laughed but agreed to race. When the race began, the hare ran so fast that he was out of sight within a few minutes. When the hare was about halfway to the finish line, he decided to take a nap in the warm sunshine. “That tortoise will never beat me,” he said and fell asleep. But the tortoise walked steadily on and on. 4Hare slept longer than he had planned. When he woke, he did not see tortoise anywhere, so he decided that he had better dash to the finish line. However, when he reached the finish line, he was shocked to see that the tortoise had already crossed it. The tortoise had won the race.

Ted is analyzing the sonnet “Composed upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802.” As you read the sonnet, notice what the author says about urban and rural settings.

Earth has not anything to show more fair:

Dull would he be of soul who could pass by

A sight so touching in its majesty:

This City now doth, like a garment, wear

The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,

Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie

Open unto the fields, and to the sky;

All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.


Never did sun more beautifully steep

In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;

Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!

The river glideth at his own sweet will:

Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;

And all that mighty heart is lying still!
