Read the excerpts from Team Moon and the NASA article.


But now, because the landing was taking far longer than planned, the fuel was almost gone. Mission Control wanted Neil to take as much time as he needed and fly the LM as near empty as possible only because they wanted him to make the landing. But if he ran out of fuel above the surface, in all likelihood the LM would crash onto the moon.



When it comes time to set Eagle down in the Sea of Tranquility, Armstrong improvises, manually piloting the ship past an area littered with boulders. During the final seconds of descent, Eagle's computer is sounding alarms.


A reader can best combine the information in the excerpts to


understand that Neil Armstrong had to improvise the landing of the LM, named Eagle, while it was dangerously low on fuel.

understand that Neil Armstrong was not in control of the LM, named Eagle, while it was being landed on the moon.

understand that Neil Armstrong would crash the LM, named Eagle, if he ran out of fuel above the moon’s surface.

Read this excerpt from "It's My Constitutional Right!"

The officer ordered her to get up. Again Claudette refused. He returned to the driver and explained that as a transit policeman he lacked the authority to make an arrest. The doors closed behind him as he stepped down into the street and the bus pulled away again. One block north, at the intersection of Bibb and Commerce streets, a squad car was waiting. This time, when the Highland Gardens bus door opened, two Montgomery city policemen climbed aboard. Passengers held their breath.

• • •

CLAUDETTE: One of them said to the driver in a very angry tone, "Who is it?" The motorman pointed at me. I heard him say, "That's nothing new . . . I've had trouble with that 'thing' before." He called me a "thing." They came to me and stood over me and one said, "Aren't you going to get up?" I said, "No, sir." He shouted "Get up" again. I started crying, but I felt even more defiant. I kept saying over and over, in my high-pitched voice, "It's my constitutional right to sit here as much as that lady. I paid my fare, it's my constitutional right!" I knew I was talking back to a white policeman, but I had had enough.
What differences can be found when contrasting the mood of the third-person account with that of Claudette's first-person account?

The mood of the third-person account is less emotional and more matter-of-fact. The mood of Claudette's account is more emotional and heated.
The mood of the third-person account is less emotional and more matter-of-fact. The mood of Claudette's account is more emotional and joyous.
The mood of the third-person account is more emotional and heated. The mood of Claudette's account is less emotional and more matter-of-fact.
The mood of the third-person account is more emotional and dramatic. The mood of Claudette's account is less emotional and more detailed.

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.

Read this sentence from the essay:

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.

What is the main idea of this sentence? (1 point)


Dogs are often left behind by humans.

Dogs are very impatient creatures.

Dogs show us qualities that we need to learn.

Dogs do not always get treated nicely by humans.

And now they are dressing them, too. As a result, the Elizabeth school district has spent more than $2 million since January 2006 to buy navy blazers, khaki pants, polo shirts, gym shorts, and even socks as part of a new policy to put all its students in uniforms. Consequently, the district, which serves mostly poor and minority families, has outfitted more than 9,000 students — nearly half its enrollment. Yet the district must phase in the uniforms a few schools at a time over five years to spread out the cost. Because schools are facing budget cuts and state lawmakers are under pressure to reduce property taxes, some critics have questioned whether the district should be getting into the clothing business. Jerry Cantrell, president of the New Jersey Taxpayers Association and a former school board president in Randolph, said that he did not oppose school uniforms; however, he considered it “overkill” to provide them free to every student. Due to these costs and difficult economic times, some urban districts have been asking for community donations, organizing used-clothing drives and carving out money from their budgets. For instance, the Hartford school district has spent about $32,000 — some of it donated — to help 1,000 poor students buy uniforms. Similarly, the West Contra Costa district in California, near Oakland, used $49,000 from its budget last year to provide uniforms to poor students. Number Transition Type of Transition

Here is the poem
The time you won your town the race
We chaired you through the market-place;
Man and boy stood cheering by,
And home we brought you shoulder-high.
Today, the road all runners come,
Shoulder-high we bring you home,
And set you at your threshold down,
Townsman of a stiller town.
Smart lad, to slip betimes away
From fields where glory does not stay,
And early though the laurel grows
It withers quicker than the rose.
Eyes the shady night has shut
Cannot see the record cut,
And silence sounds no worse than cheers
After earth has stopped the ears.
Now you will not swell the rout
Of lads that wore their honors out,
Runners whom renown outran
And the name died before the man.
So set, before its echoes fade,
The fleet foot on the sill of shade,
And hold to the low lintel up
The still-defended challenge-cup.
And round that early-laurelled head
Will flock to gaze the strengthless dead,
And find unwithered on its curls
The garland briefer than a girl
