Question 7 (Fill-In-The-Blank Worth 6 points)

THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE
By Hugh Lofting

Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son
My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.

Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.

For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.

Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman.

The writer Angelo Pellegrini has recalled his own family’s detention at Ellis Island:

We lived there for three days – Mother and we five children, the youngest of whom was three years old. Because of the rigorous physical examination that we had to submit to, particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if one of us was, what would the rest of the family do? My sister was indeed momentarily rejected; she had been so ill and had cried so much that her eyes were absolutely bloodshot, and Mother was told, "Well, we can’t let her in.” But fortunately, Mother was an indomitable spirit and finally made them understand that if her child had a few hours’ rest and a little bit to eat she would be all right. In the end we did get through.
Most immigrants passed through Ellis Island in about one day. Carrying all their worldly possessions, they left the examination hall and waited on the dock for the ferry that would take them to Manhattan, a mile away. Some of them still faced long journeys overland before they reached their final destination. Others would head directly for the teeming immigrant neighborhoods of New York City.

Which line from the excerpt is an example of a quotation?

Some of them still faced long journeys overland . . .
They left the examination hall and waited on the dock for the ferry that would take them to Manhattan . . .
Others would head directly for the teeming immigrant neighborhoods of New York City.
"Well, we can't let her in."

Now Lana steered the little boat toward the dock by the hut where Martin lived with his two little brothers. When she saw Martin wasn’t waiting out in front, she heaved out a sigh, yelling, “C’mon, Martin! We need to go—now!”

“All right, all right.” Martin appeared, lugging an empty box. “Listen, I had a thought. You know how I’ve been talking about how these fuel runs are a dead end?”

“You’re backing out on us now?” said Jessie.

“No, no—but while we’re inland, I want to scavenge for a few other things.” Smiling, Martin jumped into the boat. “I have a plan.”
