1.
Once a young man, discouraged with the hard life on his family farm, struck off on his own. He went to a nearby village and went to work as
an apprentice to a blacksmith
One day one of his sisters came to him and told him that their father was and wanted to see him. Not wishing to hurt his father more,
the young man returned home for a visit.
To his surprise the farm was prosperous. The fields were green with produce. Fruit hung from the branches of every tree. The buildings
were all freshly painted and in good repair.
He asked his sister about the prosperity. She told him, "When you left, father called us all together. He gave each of us a straw and told us
to break it. He then took a group of straws, tied them together, and asked each of us to try to break the bundle. None of us could."
The young man bent over, picked up a straw, and carried it with him as he went to see his father.

He thought about just staying underneath the tree all afternoon, and in the evening telling his family that the digging Just went slowly
because f the hard ground. As the fatigue eased out of his body, the idea seemed better and better.
As he sat there, his eyes caught a small movement in the dirt. It was an ant pushing a scrap of bread from his lunch. The bread was about

What is the Central Idea of this poem?

“Caged Bird”
by Maya Angelou

The free bird leaps
on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wings
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.

But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings
with fearful trill
of the things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom

The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing

The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.

"In the brush houses by the shore Kino's neighbors sat long over their breakfasts, and they spoke of what they would do if
they had found the pearl. And one man said that he would give it as a present to the Holy Father in Rome. Another said that
he would buy Masses for the souls of his family for a thousand years. Another thought he might take the money and
distribute it among the poor of La Paz; and a fourth thought of all the good things one could do with the money from the
pearl, of all the charities, benefits, of all the rescues one could perform if one had money. All of the neighbors hoped that
sudden wealth would not turn Kino's head, would not make a rich man of him, would not graft onto him the evil limbs of
greed and hatred and coldness."

excerpt from A Good Place for Maggie
by Ofelia Dumas Lachtman
"ACCIDENT AT GREENSTON NUCLEAR PLANT, No Danger to Community, Officials Say."
Every time that headline from yesterday's Los Angeles News flashed into her mind, Margarita—Maggie-Cruz griped the steering wheel of her
w more tightly and assured herself that she was doing the right thing. It wasn't as if she were in danger from the Greenston plant in the desert
hundreds of miles away, but those headlines had been the convincing factor in her decision. Yes, it was the right thing to do, and hour after hour
as she drove north of Los Angeles, she had felt more and more competent and more secure. Until now.
For the last hour she had been so intent on the changing countryside that she forgot to buy gas. The gauge said empty. She drove on, dreading
the moment when the motor would draw on the last drop of gasoline and give up. She was driving on a narrow country road lined with tall
eucalyptus trees and nothing else. Then in a clearing on the left side of the road, she saw a battered old sign with faded red letters: G-A-S. No, it
wasn't a mirage; it was more like a miracle. With a grateful sigh she turned into the run-down station, bumping over broken concrete and coming
to a stop by one of two pumps.
A weary-looking old man in grease-spotted overalls appeared beside her. "Fill 'er up?"
"Is it cheaper if I pump it myself?" It didn't look as if he'd take a credit card and she was low on cash.
"All the same here, missy," the man called, rounding the car. "Fill 'er up?
Maggie said yes, please go ahead, and climbed out of the blue W. Good thing I didn't splurge on lunch, she thought, staring at the pumps. Gas is
almost twice as high up here as it is in Los Angeles. But I'm not complaining. When she had driven mile after mile without finding a gas station,
she had begun to think that maybe being sixteen and a half didn't make her that smart, maybe a trip like this was a little much for her. Now she
felt better. She stretched and thought, Dad would be proud of me. I'm doing what is right for me. Oh, I'll miss my friends, especially Mim and
Lorena. I'll even miss Ryan. I wonder if he was really going to ask me to the TGI June bash? Well, that's history. Now is now.
