SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

Thesis statement:
Soccer interest is on the rise, and that is why our school
should focus more on building our soccer programs.
Conclusion paragraph:
So our school has a great opportunity to respond to the
growing soccer craze by building our soccer program. Our
school's soccer fields are currently in miserable condition,
but a few Saturdays of volunteer help will change that
quickly. In addition, investing money in new uniforms will
increase student enthusiasm for the sport. Lastly, by
enlisting businesses to donate money to the program, we
can create a positive soccer environment that will attract
many more players. These improvements will not only
increase soccer participation, but they'll also encourage
more students to live an active lifestyle overall - so in the
end, we'll have not only better soccer facilities but healthier
and happier students as well.
Which statement best explains the effectiveness of this conclusion
paragraph?

Dogs Make Life Great

Let's face it, they don't call dogs "man's best friend" for nothing. They are sweet, they love us, and they do work for us. There is simply nothing better than a dog. If humans have learned to survive against saber-toothed predators, stampeding herds, and enduring famine, dogs have been right there. As Robin to our Batman, as Scooby Doo to our Shaggy, dogs have been there through thick and thin in our darkest hours. After all we've been through together, how could anyone disagree that dogs are the best pet any human could have?

First, we get massive health benefits from dogs. They calm us down when we are stressed. Countless service dogs are trained every year to go into nursing homes and other facilities to provide comfort to patients. These therapy dogs have been shown to lower blood pressure and calm distressed patients. Dogs also bring sweet, sweet bacteria into our homes. These bacteria help build our immune systems and make us healthier. Studies have shown that people with dogs get sick less often. In addition, growing up with a dog in your home may make you less prone to dog-related allergies as you grow up. Finally, because dogs need regular exercise, dog owners tend to be more fit than those who do not own dogs or own only cats.

Second, dogs just make us happier. New studies have found a lower rate of depression in dog owners. In part because dogs force their owners to be more active, it is likely that dog-owners just cannot stay cooped up at home all the time. This activity level also makes it easier to meet people, stay socially engaged, and feel a sense of belonging. They are dependable friends as well, always ready with a sympathetic ear, a soft belly to rub, and a willing smile. If your day seems like a version of the zombie apocalypse, ten minutes of playing fetch will certainly keep those zombies at bay until you can get back in the game.

Finally, it's all about cute. Sure other pets can be cute, but consider tail wagging. What other animal has such a universally understood expression of joy? How can you not give into that sweet face, holding a stick, waiting patiently to be taken out to play? And if you have any doubts, you must not have seen a dog rolling on its back, tongue lolling about, head swishing back and forth, scooting first one way and then the next as if competing in a silly worm dance.

Many cat owners may argue with this position, but dogs really are the best companions. They bring joy, like a bluebird brings spring, or a rainbow brings a promise. They teach us about patience. They teach us about faith, waiting patiently—no matter how many times we leave without them—for that one time they get to load into the car and go with us. Always ready to go, always ready to wait longer, they make us hurry home at the end of the day for just a little unconditional love.

Excerpt from A Defence of Skeletons
G.K. Chesterton

The importance of the human skeleton is very great, and the horror with which it is commonly regarded is somewhat
mysterious. Without claiming for the human skeleton a wholly conventional beauty, we may assert that he is certainly not
uglier than a bult-dog, whose popularity never wanes, and that he has a vastly more cheerful and ingratiating expression
But just as man is mysteriously ashamed of the skeletons of the trees in winter, so he is mysteriously ashamed of the
skeleton of himself in death. It is a singular thing altogether, this horror of the architecture of things. One would think it
would be most unwise in a man to be afraid of a skeleton, since Nature has set curious and quite insuperable obstacles to
his running away from it.

One ground exists for this terror a strange idea has infected humanity that the skeleton is typical of death. A man might
as well
say that a factory chimney was typical of bankruptcy. The factory may be left naked after ruin, the skeleton may be
left naked after bodily dissolution, but both of them have had a lively and workmanlike life of their own, all the pulleys
creaking, all the wheels turning, in the House of Livelihood as in the House of Life. There is no reason why this creature
(new, as I fancy, to art), the living skeleton, should not become the essential symbol of life

Question:
How does the author respond to the popular idea that skeletons are reminders of death?

A)He shows that skeletons are not really alive, so they cannot really die

B)He argues that skeletons are one of the liveliest parts of the human body

C)He maintains that the fear of death and skeletons is irrational and should be
conquered

D)He urges that more education about human anatomy is the best way to
dispel the association of skeletons with death

Which statement best summarizes the importance of the Ottoman Empire?

C. The Ottoman Empire was a powerful Muslim empire that extended across three continents.
D. The Ottoman Empire was able to expand into Western Europe, taking control of Rome
