Why is it significant that the villagers have forgotten the
ritual but remember to use stones?
Read the passage from "The Lottery."
Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost
the original black box, they still remembered to use
stones. The pile of stones the boys had made earlier
was ready, there were stones on the ground with the
blowing scraps of paper that had come out of the box.
Mrs. Delacroix selected a stone so large she had to
pick it up with both hands and turned to Mrs. Dunbar.
"Come on," she said. "Hurry up."

Raise the Driving Age to 18!

After reading Mr. J. Brown's letter, dated August 15, I feel compelled to write and let your readers know how I feel about raising the driving age from 16 to 18. Teenagers should not be allowed to drive until they are 18. Only high school graduates should be given a driver's license, and only after successfully completing a driver's education class during their senior year of high school.

Right now, 15-year-olds can get a practice permit and try for their license at 16. This is too young. Eighteen is a better age. At 18, people are more mature and better able to make mature decisions. Not all 18-year-olds are mature, but the majority of them are. At least we are more mature than 15-year-olds.
Which sentence provides the BEST supporting point to defend the author's position?
A) Teenagers should not be allowed to drive until they are 18.
B) Only high school graduates should be given a driver's license.
C) Some younger teenagers are perfectly mature and responsible, of course.
D) At 18, people are more mature and better able to make mature decisions.

The Civil War was the bloodiest conflict in the history of the United States. More than 600,000 soldiers lost their lives. The fighting took place in many different cities and throughout the countryside. The wounded often suffered acute pain while in the field hospitals. They all should have asked for the better care. William Hammond, the surgeon general of the Union army, created a new system of sanitary field care. If people do not accept Hammond as the most important person from the Civil War, they have no understanding of the war. Select the sentence in this passage that demonstrates the fallacy of oversimplification.

Weep not for roads untraveled

Weep not for paths left lone

'Cause beyond every bend is a long blinding end

It's the worst kind of pain I've known


Give up your heart, left broken

And let that mistake pass on

'Cause the love that you lost wasn't worth what it cost

And in time, you'll be glad it's gone


Weep not for roads untraveled

Weep not for sights unseen

May your love never end, and if you need a friend

There's a seat here alongside me
