Read the following excerpt from Mark Twain's short story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calavares County," and answer the question that follows.

Smiley ketched a frog one day, and took him home, and said he cal'klated to edercate him; and so he never done nothing for three months but set in his back yard and learn that frog to jump. And you bet you he did learn him too. He'd give him a little punch behind, and the next minute you'd see that frog whirling in the air like a doughnut--see him turn one summerset, or maybe a couple, if he got a good start, and come down flat-footed and all right, like a cat.

Which of the following words from the passage is an example of dialect?
punch
flat-footed
educate
whirling

Isaac’s parents loved their work almost as much as they loved their son.
He was a bundle of anger and sadness and worry.

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 Fall of the House of Usher
By Edgar Allan Poe

Shaking off what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior, hanging in a fine tangled web-work from the eaves. Yet all this was apart from any extraordinary dilapidation. No portion of the masonry had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones. In this there was much that reminded me of the specious totality of old wood-work which has rotted for long years in some neglected vault, with no disturbance from the breath of the external air. Beyond this indication of extensive decay, however, the fabric gave little token of instability. Perhaps the eye of a scrutinizing observer might have discovered a barely perceptible fissure, which, extending from the roof of the building in front, made its way down the wall in a zigzag direction, until it became lost in the sullen waters of the tarn.

Roderick Usher's poem
By Edgar Allan Poe

I. In the greenest of our valleys,
By good angels tenanted,
Once a fair and stately palace—
Radiant palace—reared its head.
In the monarch Thought's dominion—
It stood there!
Never seraph spread a pinion
Over fabric half so fair.

II. Banners yellow, glorious, golden,
On its roof did float and flow;
(This—all this—was in the olden
Time long ago);
And every gentle air that dallied,
In that sweet day,
Along the ramparts plumed and pallid,
A winged odor went away.

...

V. And, round about his home, the glory
That blushed and bloomed
Is but a dim-remembered story
Of the old time entombed.

VI. And travellers now within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows see
Vast forms that move fantastically
To a discordant melody;
While, like a rapid ghastly river,
Through the pale door,
A hideous throng rush out forever,
And laugh—but smile no more.

Before skiers and snowboarders hit the slopes, they need to know what routes to take down a mountain. Parks and resorts rely on ski maps to provide this information to visitors. These maps show a mountain’s topography—the arrangement of an area’s natural features—including slopes, cliffs, and forests. Along with needing to be detailed and accurate, ski maps must look visually appealing to entice people to explore the mountain.

That’s where Rad Smith comes in. He’s an artist and designer specializing in cartography, or mapmaking. He uses geographic data to craft maps that chart ski routes while also highlighting mountains’ breathtaking terrain and surrounding landscapes. Science World spoke with Smith to find out how he creates informative and beautiful maps. How did you become interested in maps and mapmaking?
I’ve been interested in the natural world my whole life. As a kid growing up in North Carolina and Georgia, I spent a lot of time outdoors. I was also a big collector of maps. Every time I got an issue of National Geographic magazine, the first thing I would do was flip through it to find the maps. When I grew up, I decided to pursue a degree in fine art. I studied painting, drawing, and sculpting. Along with giving me valuable technical skills, my education also taught me to observe things more closely.

ROUGH DRAFT: Smith works on a pencil sketch of a map.

After I graduated, I worked in graphic design. Graphic designers use visuals to communicate messages or ideas. That could include creating a logo for a company or making technical diagrams for a scientific publication. At one point, I was creating designs for ski clothing. That reminded me of my interest in the outdoors. Soon after, I made my first location maps for an outdoor magazine using watercolor paints. I loved it! Then I got a job at an environmental consulting firm and spent 20 years making maps for experts like biologists and historians. Now, I make mostly ski maps.

FLYOVER: Smith finds it helpful to view an area’s features from an aircraft. How do you make your maps? It begins with a lot of conversation. I like to speak with a person who knows the area well. For a ski area, that might be a site manager or ski patroller. We talk about what parts of the landscape need emphasis. I usually visit the property and get an aerial view, either from an airplane or with a drone. If it’s a ski map, I like to ski all over
Next, I gather technical information, like satellite images and topographic data—or elevation measurements—that tells me the exact size of every feature on the mountain.
Then I create a basic line drawing. I ask myself: Are the right features being highlighted? Is it a believable scene? I show my initial drawing to the client to see if they are happy with the direction. Then I create a more detailed pencil sketch. Once that’s approved, I bring it to life with watercolors. I paint buildings, trees, and valleys. From start to finish, a map can take two to three months. TOURIST ATTRACTION: Smith drew this map, which shows Big White Ski Resort in Canada. If you could make a map of any place, where would it be? I’ve never mapped anything underwater. That’s a special type of mapmaking called bathymetric mapping. I would love to map the terrain of the ocean floor. So far, only about 20 percent of the ocean floor has been accurately mapped—that means we know more about the surface of the moon than we do about the seafloor! One thing I love about maps is that they can take anybody anywhere without them having to go to that place. So I think mapping somewhere that most people never get to see would be really exciting.

JOB PROFILE: MAPMAKER
Median Salary: $69,000
Educational Requirements: Mapmaking often requires a college-level understanding of geography or geographic information systems (GIS)—computer software that captures and displays visual data about the Earth’s surface. Courses in visual design, drawing, and painting are also useful. Gearing Up: Build a portfolio of your own by creating maps of places that interest you. You can draw maps by hand or using computer software.
