Finally, I did get across. Late one night me and my wife went. I had gone back to the plantation to get her. Mr. Rankins had him a bell by this time, along with the light. We were rowin and rowin. We could see the light and hear that bell, but it seemed we weren't getting any closer. It took forever, it seemed. That was because we were so scared and it was so dark and we knew we could get caught and never get gone. Which statement best describes the speaker's viewpoint of his escape? He is nervous that Mr. Rankins will make him go back. He is terrified that he will get caught crossing the river. He is worried that he will have to leave without his wife. He is doubtful that he will be free after he crosses the river.

New Technology Leads to Bigger Cities
In the 1800s, the Uniodd States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of
society following the introduction of machines.

The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments
caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.
Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production.

Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The
abundance caused food prices to fall.

The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in
northern factories as a way to support their families.

Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today,
the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.

As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization,
In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S.
residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with
more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and
New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.

The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so
quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural
areas.

Which sentence from the introduction paragraph serves as the author's thesis?

O In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity.
O The Industrial Revolution began in Britain, a fast development of society following the Introduction of machines,
O The United States was slower than Britain to fully embrace the changes.
O Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.

Many years passed, and there were no deaths in the world. The people who make their living from death began to protest loudly.

There were also many old folks tired of life who wanted to pass on to the next world to rest from miseries of this one.

This excerpt expresses which symbolic message found in the allegorical folktale?

Death can strengthen business.
Death can be easily prevented.
Death is an important part of life.
Death is something frightening.

Sarah has always been ultra competitive. She always wants to be number one, no matter what! Her parents even tell stories of how she cheated at Candy Land at the young age of 5 just to make sure she won. While it might have been cute for a 5 year to switch out cards in order to make it to the candy castle first, her need to win got old really fast. As she grew into her teenage years, Sarah would continue to rig games and activities to make sure she was number one. As you can imagine, her friends and family became very annoyed with her antics and refused to compete against her anymore. When it came time for backyard games like kickball, Sarah was always the last one to get picked. It even got to the point her friends would no longer call her to let her know they were getting together. So while Sarah may have been declared a victor at many games, she lost numerous friends in the process.
