The Fan

A comedy in three acts

Scene IV.

by Carlo Goldoni



[Evarist and Susanna come out of the shop.]

[(Candida) watches (Evarist) from the back of the terrace.]

Susanna. Do not complain, sir, the fan is cheap.

Evarist. I am sorry that the fan is not more beautiful.

Susanna. That was the last of those of the first quality. Now my shop is emptied. [Smiling.] I suppose it is a present?

Evarist. Certainly. I do not buy fans for myself.

Susanna. For Signorina Candida, because hers broke?

Evarist. [Impatiently.] No; for some one else.

Susanna. All right, all right. I am not curious.

Candida. He has great secrets with the draper. I am curious to hear some details. [Approaches to the front.]

Evarist. [Approaching Nina.] Nina!

Nina. Your wishes, sir?

Evarist. A favour. I know Signorina Candida loves you.

Nina. Yes, she has pity on the poor orphan. But alas! I am subjected to my brother, who embitters my life.

Evarist. Listen to me.

Nina. [Spinning on.] Spinning does not make me deaf.

Evarist. [To himself.] Her brother is full of whims, but neither does she seem free of them.

Candida. Business with the shopwoman; business with Nina. I do not understand. [Comes forward yet more.]

Evarist. May I ask you a favour?

Nina. Have I not already answered you? Have I not told you to command? I am not deaf. If my spindle disturbs you, I will throw it aside. [Does so.]

Evarist. But how impetuous!

Candida. What does her anger signify?

Nina. I am at your orders.

Evarist. You know that Signorina Candida broke her fan?

Nina. Why, certainly.

Evarist. I have bought a new one at the shop.

Nina. As you please.

Evarist. But Signora Geltrude must not know.

Nina. There you do wisely.

Evarist. And I wish that you should give her the fan secretly.

Nina. I cannot serve you.

Evarist. How unkind of you!

Candida. [To herself.] He told me he was going shooting, and he is still here.

Evarist. Why will you not do me this favour?

Nina. Because I want to know nothing about this matter.

Evarist. You take the matter too seriously. Candida loves you so much.

Nina. True, but in such matters—

Evarist. You told me you wanted to marry Crispino.

Candida. They are discussing important secrets.

Nina. If you want nothing else of me, I will go on spinning. [Does so.]

Evarist. But listen, do! Candida has begged me to give you a dowry that you may wed your Crispino.

Nina. [Suddenly grows friendly.] Really?

Evarist. Yes; and I gave her my word that I would do all—

Nina. Where is the fan?

Evarist. Here.

Nina. Quick, quick, give it to me, but so that no one sees.

[Evarist gives her the fan.]

The Industrial Revolution changed the very nature of daily work for millions of Americans. Previously, they might have worked for themselves at home, in a small shop, or outdoors. They crafted raw materials into products or grew a crop from seed to table. However, when they took factory jobs, they went to work for a large company. The repetitive work often involved only one small step in the manufacturing process. This meant workers did not see or appreciate what was being made. The work was often dangerous and performed in unsanitary conditions. Machines replaced highly skilled craftspeople in one industry after another. By the 1870s, machines were knitting stockings and stitching shirts and dresses. Machines cut and stitched leather for shoes and produced nails by the millions. By reducing labor costs,
machines reduced manufacturing costs. This meant manufacturers lowered prices they charged consumers. In short, machine production created a greater number of
products at cheaper prices. Which statements are main ideas of “The Industrial Revolution in the United States”?

Select the two correct answers.


a Labor unions arose to combat the poor conditions workers faced in factories.

b The government often sent National Guardsmen and federal troops to end strikes.

c Strikes and work stoppages were actions used to draw attention to workers’ problems and to improve their situation.

d ,The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 began in West Virginia and spread to three other

What is Elie's new job in Chapter 5 Night

Read the opening paragraph of Megan’s short story:

I was eleven years old when I first realized that I was different from everyone else. As a girl growing up with only brothers, I could slug a baseball, hold my own in a rough-and-tumble game of tag football, and skate backward like my older brother. Sure, I played with dolls, too, and I really liked my dancing lessons. But most of all, I felt okay about me. Then something happened. I became the new kid in a new school; I became the kid nobody liked. And I didn’t know why.

Which of the following sentences is a conclusion that points back to the introduction of Megan’s story?

A. I left school without a backward glance, knowing I’d never have to go back. “Goodbye and good riddance” was all I could say.
B. By my last year of high school, things had started to turn around. But by then, I no longer cared. I knew where I was going and what I was going to be.
C. I learned that being an outsider isn’t necessarily all bad. I’m now stronger for it. I know and like who I am. I’m not sure my tormentors can say the same about themselves.
D. The air smelled like freedom on that last day of school. I emptied my locker, packed up my stuff, and sprinted off toward home on feet that barely touched the hot sidewalk.

C.) secondary character.

D.) None of these choices are correct.

To answer this question, you will read two articles. First, read Article 1.

Planning for the construction of O'Hare International Airport began in 1945 when a committee chose Orchard Field as the location of the future airport. In 1955, the airport opened to commercial air traffic and O'Hare International Airport served as a hub for travelers throughout the world.

To respond to the increasing number of passengers, the airport expanded. O'Hare added a fifth runway and opened a terminal for international travel. Passengers could take flights to other countries and throughout the United States. The amount of land used by the airport grew to about 7,200 acres. This expansion included airplane hangars, cargo buildings, and even a post office. Next, there was an expressway built to connect O'Hare International Airport with downtown Chicago. People could travel to and from the airport quickly and easily, making it a desirable location. Finally, the main terminal building and parking lot were completed. These expansions led to a greater number of passengers. In 1962, 10 million passengers traveled through the airport that year alone. O'Hare was officially the world's busiest airport.

O'Hare's growth was accompanied by innovation. In order to increase efficiency, the airport developed a task force that allowed three runways to be used at the same time in 1976. The Passenger Facility Charge, which charged passengers for using the airport, was introduced in 1990. This money was used to improve and modernize the airport. The Airport Transit System was created to help transport passengers between terminals in 1993. In 1996, the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission was created to help surrounding neighborhoods deal with aircraft noise. To aid with the O'Hare Modernization Program, a Sustainable Design Manual was created in 2003. This cutting-edge document helped the airport think about the environment during the modernization process. The principles outlined in the manual were later used in a similar document in August 2009 that promoted environmental sustainability at the airport. Over the years, O'Hare International Airport has grown and innovated to manage its expansion.

Read Article 2 and answer the question.

Between O'Hare and Midway International Airports, over one thousand flights depart Chicago every day. When planes take off and land, they create vibrations. These vibrations create noise in Chicago neighborhoods. In the early days of both airports, the city of Chicago realized that aircraft noise was a problem. People were unable to talk on their phones, watch television, or sleep peacefully at night.

In 1996, the O'Hare and Midway Noise Compatibility Commissions were created to help solve the noise problem. The Commissions searched for ways to reduce the effect of aircraft noise on the surrounding neighborhoods. First, pilots and air controllers volunteered to follow the Fly Quiet Program. The program suggested that pilots use runways and flight paths over forests, highways, and industrial areas at night. By avoiding housing areas, pilots and air controllers decreased the noise level of the airplanes in these areas. That way, people would be able to sleep.

Next, the commissions focused on using sound insulation in homes near the airports. If residents lived in an area that experienced a high volume of noise, then they were eligible to have their homes insulated. Residents were given different options. Their homes could be insulated by installing special windows, doors, or air conditioning. Similar steps were also taken to insulate private and public schools in the affected areas.

The continued presence of the O'Hare and Midway Noise Compatibility Commissions is evident today. An Airport Noise Management System uses noise monitors to measure the noise levels in neighborhoods each day. A Community Outreach Vehicle distributes information about aircraft noise. Residents can use the Flight Tracker program. This online program shows images of where planes fly. If there is still a problem with noise, people can call the hotline or complete an online form.
