Pls read passage before answering
The Tower
Malcolm had been a prisoner in the tower for longer than he could remember—so long, in fact, he couldn't even remember why he was there. He never saw his captors or heard them speak. The only contact he had with them was a slot at the bottom of one wall through which a tray of food was slid twice a day. From time to time, Malcolm would bend down, put his mouth near the slot, and call out to someone, anyone. He would have welcomed hearing even mean or cruel words in response to his voice, but there was never a sound. Malcolm had thought about escaping this lonely existence. There was one small window in the room, and Malcolm suspected he could just squeeze through the bars if he wiggled enough. The ground was too far below, though, for him to survive a jump, so in his little prison he stayed. 11From time to time, Malcolm would see mice scampering along the edges of his cell. At first they all looked the same, but over time he could tell them apart and knew there were four in all. He gave each one a name: Stanton, Crispin, Roderick, and Emil. He would talk to them, and often, he felt they would talk back. Malcolm sometimes had long, drawn-out conversations and even heated debates with the mice. “I hear where you're coming from, Emil,” he would say, “but Stanton has also made some very good points.” After a while, the four mice would wake him in the morning, eagerly rubbing their whiskers against his cheek, squeaking with delight when he opened his eyes. Just knowing they liked him brought joy to his otherwise dreary existence. Years passed, and Malcolm's head began balding. His beard, however, grew and grew until it was long enough to drag behind him. One day, as he was thinking of stories he could tell the mice, he remembered the story of Rapunzel and how she had used her hair as a rope. He immediately tied the tip of his beard to one of the window bars. He tucked Stanton, Crispin, Roderick and Emil into his pockets. Because he'd grown so thin, it wasn't hard to squeeze between the bars of the window. “We're off to see the world,” he whispered to the mice and, clinging to his own long whiskers, he began to slowly let himself down to the ground below. In the story, “The Tower,” the mice represent:
A being trapped.
B civilization.
C beauty.
D animals.

What two ideas does Macy synthesize to create a new understanding in this excerpt?

For decades, Willard, along with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and many others, had been working toward increased political and economic rights for women. Now the bicycle brought a taste of independence to women on a very personal level, and some of them took the opportunity to express their discontent with old traditions and expectations. In August 1895, a cyclist named Ann Strong caused a stir when she compared the value of a bicycle to that of a husband in the Minneapolis Tribune. "I can't see but that a wheel is just as good company as most husbands," she declared. "I would as life [sic] talk to one inanimate object as another; and I'd a great deal rather talk to one that can't answer than one that won't."

To Dye or Not To Dye

It is not uncommon for teenagers to want to experiment with their appearance. As teens try to figure out who they are, they may try different styles of clothing. Another common way for teens to experiment with their look is with hair color. However, many school systems and parents insist that teens simply are not old enough to make such changes. Is a little hair dye really that bad?
Many schools now state in their policy that "unnatural hair colors," such as pink or blue, are not allowed. Schools say that such hair colors can be a distraction. For instance, students may focus on someone's blue hair during class. On the other hand, is it not just as likely that someone will be so focused on someone who dyed his or her hair from black to blonde? This logic seems faulty at best, and schools should probably put more time into what their students are actually learning.
There are plenty of parents who do not want their teens dyeing their hair either. There are countless potential disagreements that may arise between parents and their teens. So, is something such as hair color really worth it? Parents should put time into making sure their children do well in school, eat right, and exercise. It certainly seems preferable to deal with a teen having blue hair for a month than to deal with a teen who is not allowed to be himself or herself.
Leave the question of to dye or not to dye up to teens. There will be plenty of other opportunities for schools and parents to tell these kids no.
