Read the excerpts from Team Moon and the NASA article.

B.They show the huge investment of time and energy mission control workers dedicated to the lunar module.
C.They show how mission control workers view the lunar module as if it is the workers’ very own child.

Your Turn 1
This question has two parts. First, answer Part A. Then, answer Part B.

Reread paragraphs 25–29 of the selection to determine the answers to the follow-up questions.

From “Commencement Address to the Santa Fe Indian School”
I am so passionate about this because your communities need you. They need you to develop your potential and become who you’re meant to be. And that goes for every student in here who is thinking about dropping out, who is feeling discouraged. Your community needs you. And more than ever before, our world needs you, too.

And you don’t need your First Lady to tell you that. All you have to do is tune in to the news and you’ll see that right now, some of the loudest voices in our national conversation are saying things that go against every single one of the values that you’ve been living at this school. They’re telling us that we should disrespect others because of who they are or where they come from or how they worship. They’re telling us that we should be selfish—that folks who are struggling don’t deserve our help, that we should just take what we can from life and not worry about anyone else. And they’re saying that it’s okay to keep harming our planet and using our land, our air, our water however we wish.

But, graduates, you all know that those are not the values that shape good citizens. Those are not the values that build strong families and communities and nations. You know this. So we desperately need your voices and your values in this conversation reminding us that we’re all connected, we’re all obligated to treat one another with respect, to act with integrity, to give back to those in need. Now, I know that perhaps I’m asking a lot of all of you. And I know that sometimes all those obligations might feel like a heavy burden. I also know that many of you have already faced and overcome challenges in your lives that most young people can’t even begin to imagine—challenges that have tested your courage, your confidence, your faith, and your trust.

But, graduates, those struggles should never be a source of shame—never—and they are certainly not a sign of weakness. Just the opposite. Those struggles are the source of your greatest strengths. Because by facing adversity head on and getting through it, you have gained wisdom and maturity beyond your years. I’ve seen it in you. You’ve developed resilience that will sustain you throughout your lives. You’ve deepened a well of compassion within yourselves that will help you connect with and give back to others who struggle.

I picked the careers of becoming a fashion designer and a surgical technologist because those are two things I look forward to doing when I grow up because at the age I am now I really enjoy drawing so fashion ideas I have and just drawing in general and I have also told my siblings very many times that I have always wanted to become either a nurse, a doctor, or a surgen. The most important thing I look for in a career is mostly people because I have always had this thing for helping people when they are sad, depressed, sick, hurt, or is having family issues. I mostly like to help people because my friends have always told me I am always the happiest person they know, which is true. I am usually always a happy person. So that is how and why I chose the surgical technologist career. The reason I chose the Fashion designer career is that I have always loved to dress up, and in that career, I get to dress up other people which would make me happy. And also because I am usually full of wild and crazy ideas when it comes to fashion. Although now that I am in my teens I am not much to dress in dresses and skirts anymore, I will wear them at some time when I'm in town but that mostly in summer. Well, anyway that is why I chose the fashion designing career. There are more reasons of why I want to do the two careers i chose
