B his learning to read from a comic book as a three year old

B A teacher should never give up on his students.
C It is useless to try to overcome cultural values.
D Education is the doorway to Indian children’s success.
11 Which of these is the best summary of the selection?
A Sherman Alexie was determined to save his life and his Native American community through reading and
writing. Although his community did not affirm him, Alexie refused to fail. Now that he is a writer, he visits
reservation schools to teach creative writing, but some students refuse to learn. But Alexie knows that to give
up on them is to give up on his people.
B Because Sherman Alexie’s dad set such a good example as a reader and a learner, Alexie learned to read at
an early age. Alexie was able to withstand the ridicule of bullies because he was so determined to be like his
father. Although his father never had the opportunities of education that Alexie enjoyed, he was proud of his
son’s accomplishments as a writer and a teacher.
C Although Sherman Alexie had been a successful writer for many years, his primary accomplishment was
returning to his people to challenge gifted students who wanted to become writers themselves and to engage
reluctant students who did not want anything to do with school learn how to read and to write.
D Children who learn to read at an early age should be identified as prodigies and given encouragement.
Instead what often happens is that they are outcasts. Sherman Alexie’s success is an example of what child
can accomplish with little support. Sherman Alexie’s desire to give back to his community is an inspiration to us
all.

days, I write novels, short stories, and poems.

Select one:
Ms. Gonzales has made a lifelong impact on Samantha
Samantha still spends time with Ms. Gonzales
Samantha uses the quilt all the time.
Samantha did not complete the community service assignment
Read the passage and answer the following question(s)
The Patchwork Quilt
Samantha paused in her spring cleaning to press her cheek against the soothing plumpness of the patchwork quilt. Its still–rich colors transported her mind back to the day she'd been given the quilt. In her mind's eye she could see herself going into Mrs. Gonzales's house that first, cloudy October afternoon. Putting down her broom, Samantha sat down at her bedroom desk and allowed herself the luxury of a little nostalgic dreaming...
Mrs. Gonzales, I'm here! fourteen–year–old Samantha called out softly in the dusty gloom of Mrs. Gonzales's front hallway.
Who is it? a thin, quivering voice replied from the direction of the bedroom.
Samantha! Samantha Parsons to read to you, Samantha answered, making her way down the dim hallway toward the old woman's bedroom. Standing in the doorway she took in the tidy, restful scene of the elderly woman sitting up in her bed wearing a frilly, purple nightgown, and slowly sorting square patches of bright fabric. Her fingers were bent and gnarled, but her nails were beautifully manicured in pink polish.
Ah, Samantha. I remember now. You gave me a fright just now, but come on in and sit down, she said cozily, pointing at a rocking chair beside her bed.
I'm sorry I scared you. Your daughter said I could let myself in. She left the door unlocked for me, as long as I locked it behind me when I came and when I left, Samantha explained, sitting down in the cushioned, but creaking, rocking chair.
Tell me, Niña, why do you want to read aloud to me? Rosa, my daughter, you know, said something about your school's community service program.
Yes, my English teacher has asked all of her classes to do something for the community for six hours each week. We get credit for English class because at the end of the semester I have to write a paper about my community service and what I learned from it. So, I thought... if I could... , Samantha faltered in her explanation, nervously biting her lower lip.
I see, I see, Mrs. Gonzales cackled merrily, then began to cough harshly, painfully. Her faded brown eyes filled with tears, and her lined face looked pained as her body shook with coughs. When she'd recovered from her coughing spell, she added, "You thought you could read aloud to an old invalid woman like me, eh? What shall we read, Niña?"
So, Samantha had read through many afternoons after school, while October, November and December rainstorms rumbled outside and Mrs. Gonzales painstakingly stitched her quilts and coughed. Samantha read To Kill a Mockingbird, Great Expectations, and a thick volume of Ernest Hemingway's short stories. It wasn't exactly entertaining, especially when she missed going to the movies or the mall after school with her friends, but gradually Samantha began to see the value of what she was doing for Mrs. Gonzales... and for herself. She began to fall in love with the characters in the books, especially Atticus Finch and his intrepid little daughter, Scout.
The second week in December, Mrs. Gonzales's lung disease took a turn for the worse, and she had to be hospitalized for immediate surgery. The evening after Mrs. Gonzales's surgery, her daughter Rosa came to the Parsons home with the good news that Mrs. Gonzales was recuperating well and would be home for New Year's Eve celebrations. She brought something else, too—a beautifully wrapped package which she presented to Samantha.
I know you read to my mother for a school assignment, but to her your time was like a special gift, so she wanted you to have this, and she asked me to tell you to please come and see her sometime. When you come, she wants you to please bring the paper you write about your community service experience.
Samantha opened the package with trembling fingers, and smiled when she saw what lay inside. It was the patchwork quilt Mrs. Gonzales had been piecing together on that first day Samantha had begun reading to her. Samantha thanked Rosa quietly as she opened the richly colored folds of the quilt, and said, "It's beautiful! Please tell your mother I'll always treasure it!"
...Samantha reluctantly brought her mind back from the memory of all of those afternoons she'd spent reading to the ailing Mrs. Gonzales. She'd never forget those novels and stories she'd read because the characters were as much a part of the experience as Mrs. Gonzales's friendship had been. Watching the woman's good–natured attitude toward her own suffering had taught Samantha an invaluable lesson about human endurance and courage. Gently folding the patchwork quilt, she put it back into the trunk at the foot of her bed, and picked up her broom again.
Answer:
Samantha did not complete the community service assignment
Answer: Well from reading the passage, I can definitely say, Ms, Gonzales has made a lifelong impact on Samantha.

Answer:
William Bradford.
Anne Bradstreet.
Explanation:
Excerpt written by Willian Bradford, in the poem "A word to New England":
"Oh New England, you can not boast;
Thy former glory thou hast lost.
When H00ker, Winthrop, Cotton died,
And many precious ones beside,
Thy beauty then it did decay,
And still doth languish more away. "
William Bradford was one of the first American writers, being one of the most important in the literary production and in the general history of the country. He was a Puritan, served as governor of the Plymouth colony and is the author of the most important account of English colonists and the difficulties they faced on the new continent.
Excerpt written by Anne Bradstreet, in the poem "Upon a Fit of Sickness":
"Bubble blast, how long can'st last?
That always art a breaking,
No sooner blown, but dead and gone,
Ev'n as a word that's speaking.
The whil'st I live, this grace me give,
I doing good may be,
Then death's arrest I shall count best,
because it's thy decree. "
Anne Bradstreet is recognized as the first poet within the territory where the USA is today. She never went to school, but she learned to read and write with her father who was instrumental in her education and one of the main responsible for her ability. She was also a Puritan, but she was not well regarded by other Puritans for displaying behavior considered wrong for that society, such as a woman writing and showing love for her husband.

Answer:
Napoleon and Snowball are both young boars in Animal Farm. Napoleon is a fierce boar, with lots of strength, and one that everyone easily follows. Most of the other animals in the farm seem scared of Napoleon the young boar, and that's why they listen to whatever it is he has to tell them so closely. He is the type of boar that seeks opportunity, and always ends up getting his way regardless of the situation. Snowball however might be considered the thinker of the group, he teaches the animals of his ways and has a more intellectual or moral point of view that he is able to express with much ease. He is an idealistic boar and although he and Napoleon are vivacious, Snowball is way more vivacious than Napoleon. Although Snowball is a character with great animation, Napoleon is a character with much more depth in the story.
