Answer:

The mall Mystery

"I was shopping with my 2 best friends, Kayli and Jordan. We were at the new mall, it was a big thing back then. "So where should we shop first?" said Kayli. "Pretzel place." I responded. We headed to the pretzel place, and were hit by the smell of fresh pretzels. We bought normal pretzels with cheese.

       "I'm sure these will be great!" said Jordan. "Yep." I said. We headed to the shopping department next. I decided to get a new jacket. "Kayli, is this jacket cool?" I ask. "Kayli?" I repeat. "She's gone, probably walked off or is handling business." said Jordan. I know Kayli, she would not just walk off like that without saying something. Is she gone? Who knows? I don't. Me and Jordan continue to search for Kayli, and we have no luck, so we get help. Will we find Kayli?"

"After that quote, mall tragedy, unquote, me and Jordan have been on a near manhunt to find Kayli. We called her, she doesn't answer, we tried visiting her, she is not home, she has not showed up to school! Kayli never misses days! Jordan is beginning to assume the worst. She stated, "I will not back down until we find out what happened.". "Jordan, harping on this is not healthy for you. I think we know what happened, we just have to face it." I said.

      "How do we "face" the fact that our best friend is gone? Do you know how hard this is to think about-" "We've been searching for 5 days! We haven't found anything!" I interrupt. There is no hope left, the best thing I could do is file a missing case, or leave it at this. But wouldn't that look a lot worse if I did not?

"Emma." Jordan says firmly. "What?" I respond. "You. Must. See. This." she says. This could only mean one bad thing. I follow Jordan to the living room with the TV on the news channel. Breaking news, Highschool student Kayli Reyes is found okay after she went missing at a local mall with her friends. The suspect has not yet been found. "Oh thank goodness!" I say.

      Everything will be fine."

"I tell myself night and day that everything is just fine. Is it really, though? That's one thing I always question. I am simply alone at home reading. It is a peaceful day, sun shining, light blue sky, bright sun, early in the morning. Nothing but birds chirping. Once my brain gets reading block, I stop reading and then take a nap.

I wake up, and it's afternoon. I suddenly hear a loud bang on my door. What is this, questioning? I go to answer the door. "Hello." says and investigation-like person. I knew this would happen. I hope Jordan was not questioned first. "Hello," I start, "is it questioning day?" I finish. "Yes, we are here to ask you some questions since your friend disappeared and you were one of the last people to see her.""

"I am being questioned. "You're not being accused, but we just need to ask these questions.". "Okay." I respond. "Do you recall seeing Kayli walk off?" asked the investigator. "No, I did not actually see her walk off, I know know she went missing during our shopping trip." I respond. "Thank you, we find you very helpful!" says the investigator. "You're free to go.". That was it? That was all I had to answer? These investigators sure are something.

      "Everything will be fine." I remind myself. Every. Single. Thing."

Yes, I did write this story myself. :-)

Read the excerpt from “The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle.”


I called upon my friend, Sherlock Holmes, on the second morning after Christmas, to wish him a happy holiday. He was lounging upon the sofa in a purple dressing gown among a pile of crumpled morning newspapers. He was peering through a magnifying glass at an old, shabby black hat, cracked in several places.


“Am I interrupting you?” I asked.


“Not at all. I am glad to have a friend with whom I can discuss my findings.”


I sat down in his armchair and warmed my hands before his crackling fire. A sharp frost had set in, and the windows were thick with the ice crystals. “I suppose,” I remarked, “that, homely as it looks, that hat has some deadly story linked on to it. Is it the clue that will guide you to the solution of a mystery, or the punishment of a crime?”


“No, no. No crime,” said Sherlock Holmes, laughing. “Only one of those odd little events that happen when you have four million people crowded together within the space of a few square miles.”


Question 1

Part A


What can readers conclude based on the details in the text?


A.Dr. Watson mostly takes the lead on solving crimes.


B.Holmes can be lazy about doing detective work.


C.Holmes values talking with Dr. Watson about his cases.


D.City life has become tiresome for Holmes.

Question 2

Part B


Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A?



a.“’Only one of those odd little events that happen when you have four million people crowded together within the space of a few square miles.’”


b.“He was lounging upon the sofa in a purple dressing gown among a pile of crumpled morning newspapers.”


c.“’I suppose,’ I remarked, ‘that, homely as it looks, that hat has some deadly story linked on to it.’”


d.“’Not at all. I am glad to have a friend with whom I can discuss my findings.’”

Lady Freedom Among Us
by Rita Dove
(1) don't lower your eyes
or stare straight ahead to where
you think you ought to be going
(2) don't mutter oh no
not another one
get a job fly a kite
go bury a bone
(3) with her oldfashioned sandals
with her leaden skirts
with her stained cheeks and whiskers and heaped up trinkets
she has risen among us in blunt reproach
(4) she has fitted her hair under a hand-me-down cap
and spruced it up with feathers and stars
slung over her shoulder she bears
the rainbowed layers of charity and murmurs
all of you even the least of you
(5) don't cross to the other side of the square
don't think another item to fit on a tourist's agenda
(6) consider her drenched gaze her shining brow
she who has brought mercy back into the street
and will not retire politely to the potter's field
(7) having assumed the thick skin of this town
its gritted exhaust its sunscorch and blear
she rests in her weathered plumage
bigboned resolute
(8) don't think you can forget her
don't even try
she's not going to budge
(9) no choice but to grant her space
crown her with sky
for she is one of the many
and she is each of us
In Lady Freedom Among Us Dove wants readers to recognize that people experiencing homelessness in America are no different than homed citizens.

Read the excerpt from Hamlet.

Hamlet: No, faith, not a jot; but to follow him thither with modesty enough, and likelihood to lead it; as thus: Alexander died, Alexander was buried, Alexander returneth into dust; the dust is earth; of earth we make loam, and why of that loam, whereto he was converted, might they not stop a beer-barrel?

Imperious Caesar, dead and turn’d to clay,

Might stop a hole to keep the wind away

Shakespeare makes allusions to the great rulers Alexander and Caesar to

contrast the deaths of Alexander and Caesar.
show how kings should behave around death.
compare Hamlet to two rulers who died.
emphasize that everyone eventually dies.

The topic is How would you react if you were told ahead of time that the child you are having will be gay?


In my opinion, I will be happy to have a healthy gay child. First of all, I don't care if the baby is gay. Moreover, some parents do not have the opportunity to have a healthy baby due to medical problems, and some even die during pregnancy, including the mother and the baby. Besides being born gay is not a choice, imagine if you were the gay child? You would hate yourself, you would struggle and you would feel broken, I wouldn't want that for my child. If I were to have a gay daughter, so be it, my daughter being gay doesn't define her or change a single way that me and my partner raise her. In conclusion We must understand that we are all human beings, and we must not label the gender of others because it does not define who they are.
