Which sentence best shows the homes the Taos people built were structurally sound?
Taos Pueblo

The Taos Pueblo, home of the Taos, or Red Willow people, sits at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in New Mexico. There are two buildings at the pueblo (pueblo means village in Spanish). They were built in the 1300s, and the Red Willow people have lived in them ever since. These homes have been continuously occupied for over 700 years.

About 150 people live in the centuries-old, multi-storied buildings made of adobe brick (dried mud and straw). These structures look like apartment houses. The rooms are built one on top of another. They are staggered, so the roofs of some lower rooms can be used as patios for those above. Only a few changes have been made to the buildings since they were built. They now have fireplaces and external doors. But the Red Willow people have not brought electricity or running water to the pueblo.

The Red Willow people are fiercely independent. In 1680, they rose against the Spanish, who ruled the area at the time. Later, in 1847, they also rebelled against the Americans. They have cherished and guarded their traditional ways through years of contact with other cultures. They still speak the Tiwa language, as well as English. They farm, hunt and raise cattle and horses on their ancestral lands, as their forefathers did. Today, the Red Willow people welcome visitors to the pueblo. Tourists can see two of the oldest buildings in the United States and see people living there in much the same way they did 700 years ago.

Denise is checking to determine if the expressions x + x + 6 and 4 + 3 x minus 2 are equivalent. When x = 4, she correctly found that both expressions have a value of 14. When x = 2, she correctly evaluated the first expression to find that x + x + 6 = 10.

What is the value of the second expression when x = 2, and are the two expressions equivalent?
The value of the second expression is 2, so the expressions are equivalent.
The value of the second expression is 4, so the expressions are not equivalent.
The value of the second expression is 8, so the expressions are not equivalent.
The value of the second expression is 10, so the expressions are equivalent.

Miep. I made up the beds . . . The way Mr. Frank and Mr. Kraler said. (She starts out.) Forgive me. I have to hurry. I've got to go to the other side of town to get some ration books for you. Mrs. Van Daan. Ration books? If they see our names on ration books, they'll know we're here. Mr. Kraler. There isn't anything . . . Miep. Don't worry. Your names won't be on them. (As she hurries out) I'll be up later. Why is it important that the Van Daan and Frank family names do not appear on the ration books? The families do not believe in the ration books system, because it is unfair. The families are getting extra rations, and they do not want anyone to know. The families are in hiding, so no one can know they are receiving rations. The families do not understand the ration system, so they do not want to be a part of it.

THE WORLD WITH A THOUSAND MOONS
CHAPTER 1: Thrill Cruise
By Edmond Hamilton

Lance Kenniston felt the cold realization of failure as he came out of the building into the sharp chill of the Martian night. He stood for a moment, his lean, drawn face haggard in the light of the two hurtling moons.

He looked hopelessly across the dark spaceport. It was a large one, for this ancient town of Syrtis was the main port of Mars. The forked light of the flying moons showed many ships docked on the tarmac—a big liner, several freighters, a small, shining cruiser and other small craft. And for lack of one of those ships, his hopes were ruined!

A squat, brawny figure in shapeless space-jacket came to Kenniston's side. It was Holk Or, the Jovian who had been waiting for him.

"What luck?" asked the Jovian in a rumbling whisper.

"It's hopeless," Kenniston answered heavily. "There isn't a small cruiser to be had at any price. The meteor-miners buy up all small ships here."

"The devil!" muttered Holk Or, dismayed. "What are we going to do? Go on to Earth and get a cruiser there?"

"We can't do that," Kenniston answered. "You know we've got to get back to that asteroid within two weeks. We've got to get a ship here."

Desperation made Kenniston's voice taut. His lean, hard face was bleak with knowledge of disastrous failure.

The big Jovian scratched his head. In the shifting moonlight his battered green face expressed ignorant perplexity as he stared across the busy spaceport.

"That shiny little cruiser there would be just the thing," Holk Or muttered, looking at the gleaming, torpedo-shaped craft nearby. "It would hold all the stuff we've got to take; and with robot controls we two could run it."

"We haven't a chance to get that craft," Kenniston told him. "I found out that it's under charter to a bunch of rich Earth youngsters who came out here in it for a pleasure cruise. A girl named Loring, heiress to Loring Radium, is the head of the party."

The Jovian swore. "Just the ship we need, and a lot of spoiled kids are using it for thrill-hunting!"

Kenniston had an idea. "It might be," he said slowly, "that they're tired of the cruise by this time and would sell us the craft. I think I'll go up to the Terra Hotel and see this Loring girl."

"Sure, let's try it anyway," Holk Or agreed.

With the Jovian clumping along beside him, Kenniston made his way from the spaceport across the ancient Martian city.

Read the following line from the text:

"We can't do that," Kenniston answered. "You know we've got to get back to that asteroid within two weeks. We've got to get a ship here."

What can be inferred about Kenniston from this line?

He can take his time getting to the asteroid.
He must rush to get to the asteroid.
His urgency is unnecessary.
He is confident that they will get there in time.

Read the excerpt from "George Washington."
Which is the central idea in this excerpt?
He did not infringe upon the policy making powers that
he felt the Constitution gave Congress. But the
determination of foreign policy became preponderantly
a Presidential concern. When the French Revolution
led to a major war between France and England,
Washington refused to accept entirely the
recommendations of either his Secretary of State
Thomas Jefferson, who was pro-French, or his
Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton, who
was pro-British. Rather, he insisted upon a neutral
course until the United States could grow stronger.
O The French Revolution led to a major war between
France and England during Washington's
presidency
Washington followed a foreign policy of not taking
sides in conflicts between other countries.
Washington's secretary of state was Thomas
Jefferson and his secretary of the treasury was
Alexander Hamilton.
Washington's understanding of the Constitution
meant that he did not infringe on the powers of
Congress
