Read the following prompt, and then write a claim in response. Explain the parts of this prompt that influenced the way you wrote the claim.
Passage
Every year, the eighth graders at your middle school take a trip to Washington, D.C., to meet your government representatives and see the important historical sites. This year, though, your principal is thinking about canceling the trip and using the money to make some much-needed improvements to the school building. Write an essay in which you argue for or against canceling the trip, and give at least two reasons to support your answer.

The school should follow through with the eighth grade field trip.

it is important for students to learn interactively, and field trips can be an amazing way to learn in a way students enjoy. This could be a fun experience for these students, while still being educational.

Answer:

I believe that we should use the money to repair the school building and cancel the trip because repairing the school building is more important to improving the students' daily lives and preventing dangerous accidents from occurring.  

The part of this prompt that influenced the way I wrote the claim was the part that said much-needed improvements to the school building.

In this excerpt from the “Mother Holle” by the Brothers Grimm, which sentence contains direct characterization?

1. [Once upon a time there was a widow who had two daughters; one of them was beautiful and industrious, the other ugly and lazy.] The mother, however, loved the ugly and lazy one best, because she was her own daughter, and so the other, who was only her stepdaughter, was made to do all the work of the house, and was quite the Cinderella of the family. 2. [Her stepmother sent her out every day to sit by the well in the high road, there to spin until she made her fingers bleed.] 3. [Now it chanced one day that some blood fell on to the spindle, and as the girl stopped over the well to wash it off, the spindle suddenly sprang out of her hand and fell into the well.] She ran home crying to tell of her misfortune, but her stepmother spoke harshly to her, and after giving her a violent scolding, said unkindly, "As you have let the spindle fall into the well you may go yourself and fetch it out."


4.[The girl went back to the well not knowing what to do, and at last in her distress she jumped into the water after the spindle.]

Read the excerpt from the story Animals in the Zoo.

It was time for Ryan's mom to examine the tamarins, so they headed to the Primate Discovery Center. They walked into the veterinarian's room so that his mother could examine the tamarins. The public wasn't allowed to see them until Ryan's mother had looked them over and made sure they were healthy. The room was white, very sterile, and looked like an operating room that you would see on TV. Ryan's eyes widened and a look of uneasiness crossed his face. He was scared, and his mother noticed right away.

"Don't worry, we won't be operating on the tamarins today. We are just checking their health and looking at their eyes, ears, and hands during this visit. We want to make sure they are healthy enough to be put into their enclosure," she said. Just then, a zoo employee brought in the two tamarins, and Ryan immediately understood why they were called cotton-top tamarins. They had white tufts of hair on top of their heads. The zoo employee told Ryan and his mom that these two tamarins were the first of many to come to the zoo. If these two stayed healthy and appeared to be happy in their enclosure, the zoo would be able to get even more tamarins to fill the exhibit which is why they wanted to make sure they had an expert come in to examine them.

Read the excerpt from the story Winter Driving.

As he came around a bend in the road, he could feel his tires slip and slide on the ice. But the ice wasn't his only problem. His eyes grew wide when he saw a small hill straight ahead. He scrunched his eyebrows as he concentrated on staying on the road. He worried for a minute since he was driving slowly and the ice on the road might prevent him from making it up the hill. He drove slowly until he got to the base of the hill. He started making his way up, but it wasn't long before his tires started to spin on the ice. He continued, slow and steady, squeezing the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles were turning white.

Eventually, Jesper made it to the top of the hill. Phew, he thought. He pulled over so that he could release the steering wheel from his tight grasp. He squeezed his hands into fists a few times to get the blood flowing through his fingers once again. He took a few breaths and continued driving. The snow was still falling, and he knew he definitely didn't want to get stuck sleeping in his car. He had come this far, and he was determined to make it all the way home.

Select the evidence that shows the difference in what helps the characters in Animals in the Zoo and Winter Driving overcome their fear.

Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."
