WALTER (Bitterly) Now ain’t that fine! You just got your mother’s interest at heart, ain’t you, girl? You such a nice girl—but if Mama got that money she can always take a few thousand and help you through school too—can’t she?
WALTER It ain’t that nobody expects you to get on your knees and say thank you, Brother; thank you, Ruth; thank you, Mama—and thank you, Travis, for wearing the same pair of shoes for two semesters—
WALTER And we have decided to move into our house because my father—my father—he earned it for us brick by brick. (MAMA has her eyes closed and is rocking back and forth as though she were in church, with her head nodding the Amen yes)
WALTER (Quietly) Sometimes it’s like I can see the future stretched out in front of me—just plain as day.

We are seeing a number of police departments and prosecutors take interest in these issues and really try to prevent them. . . .
So what kinds of things did they recommend? Number one, they talked about having checklists for investigations. And these are checklists that they recommended not simply for police and prosecutors, but also for defense lawyers, particularly when their defendant has an alibi. . . . If you can do that, you can stop some investigations earlier than others.

Jon Gould

Read the excerpt from the firsthand account from the Battle of Monongahela:

(3) I have just arrived back to Fort Cumberland, having survived an epic battle with the French troops at the Monongahela River outside of Fort Duquesne. We were 1300 strong, yet we were ambushed in the woods. To say I was completely surprised would be an understatement. However, in my defense, I was suffering from a dreadful case of dysentery. My stomach was horribly upset, I had a fever, and I was suffering with chills as well. I wasn't at my best. I had been hand-picked to help Major General Braddock. They are saying I am "the hero of Monongahela," but I feel as though I have failed Braddock, and the whole of the British Army, terribly.

Which three important events in the story should be included in its summary?
adapted from The Glass Axe
by Andrew Lang
There was once upon a time King and Queen who had everything they could possibly wish for in this world except a child. At last, after
twelve years, the Queen gave birth to son; but she did not live long to enjoy her happiness, for on the following day she died. But before her
death she called her husband to her and said. Never let the child put his feet on the ground, for as soon as he does so he will fall into the power
of a wicked Fairy, who will do him much harm. And these were the last words the poor Queen spoke.
The boy throve and grew big, and when he was too heavy for his nurse to carry, a chair was made for him on little wheels, in which he could
wander through the palace gardens without help; at other times he was carried about on a litter, and he was always carefully watched and
guarded for fear he should at any time put his feet to the ground.
But as this sort of life was bad for his health, the doctors ordered him horse exercise, and he soon became ¿ first-rate rider, and used to go
out for long excursions on horseback, accompanied always by his father's stud-groom and a numerous retinue.
Every day he rode through the neighboring fields and woods, and always returned home in the evening safe and well.
this way many years
passed, and the Prince grew to manhood, and hardly anyone remembered the Queen's warning, though precautions were still taken, more from
use and wont than for any other reason. One day the Prince and his suite went out for ride in a wood where his father sometimes held a hunt.
Their way led through a stream whose banks were overgrown with thick brushwood. Just as the horsemen were about to ford the river, a hare,
startled by the sound of the horses' hoofs, started up from the grass and ran towards
the thicket. The young Prince pursued the little creature,
and had almost overtaken it, when the girth of his saddle suddenly broke in two and he fell heavily to the ground No sooner had his foot
touched the earth than he disappeared before the eyes of the horrified courtiers. They sought for him far and near, b02all in vain, and they were
forced to recognize the power of the evil Fairy.
Hardly had the Prince touched the ground than he felt himself violently seized by an unseen power, and hurried away he knew not whither. A
whole new world stretched out before him, quite unlike the one he had left. A splendid castle surrounded by a huge lake was the abode of the
Fairy, and the only approach to it was over a bridge of clouds. On the other side of the lake high mountains rose up, and dark woods stretched
along the banks; over all hung a thick mist, and deep silence reigned everywhere. No sooner had the Fairy reached her own domain than she
made herself visible, and turning to the Prince she told him that unless he obeyed all her commands
down to the minutest detail he would be
severely punished. Then she gave him an axe made of glass, and bade him cross the bridge of clouds and go into the wood beyond and
down all the trees there before sunset. At the same time she cautioned him with many angry words agair
