Read the passage carefully.

Pare Lorentz, a thirty-year-old movie critic, had never made a film himself. Now he got his chance. Working under a Farm Security Administration contract, in 1936 Lorentz released his first documentary film, The Plow that Broke the Plains. Using dramatic footage, Lorentz showed how farmers had ravaged the Texas Panhandle. Viewers saw lines of tractors advancing across virgin grasslands to the sound of military marches, like tank columns through Europe during the First World War. Easterners could almost smell and breathe the clouds of windborne dust blowing off the southern plains. The film's message, driven home with all the delicacy of a baseball bat, was clear. The plains would only support people if they respected the land and lived in harmony with it.

Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman.

Immigrants usually crossed the Atlantic as steerage passengers. Reached by steep, slippery stairways, the steerage lay deep down in the hold of the ship. It was occupied by passengers paying the lowest fare.

Men, women, and children were packed into dark, foul-smelling compartments. They slept in narrow punks stacked three high. They had no showers, no lounges, and no dining rooms. Food served from huge kettles was dished into dinner pails provided by the steamship company. Because steerage conditions were crowded and uncomfortable, passengers spent as much time as possible up on deck.

The voyage was an ordeal, but it was worth it. They were on their way to America.

Which is an example of paraphrasing the excerpt?
A. “Because steerage conditions were crowded and uncomfortable, passengers spent as much time as possible up on deck.”
B. Freedman writes that the long trip “was an ordeal, but it was worth it. They were on their way to America.”
C. The travel conditions on immigrant ships were very poor. People had no room to sleep comfortably, the food was not good, and there was no way to keep clean.
D. One author describes the immigrant voyage this way: “the steerage lay deep down in the hold of the ship. It was occupied by passengers paying the lowest fare.”

Look at essay:

No one wants to go through life in a conglomeration of regrets, unfulfilled dreams, and muddled half-ideas. Having no specific task is a setup for failure. Setting goals keeps you focused on a single task at a time.
There are two types of goals—short-term and long-term—both of which are quintessential to a productive life. Long-term goals give people more motivation to get where they want to be in life. Short-term goals help to achieve long-term goals. Purposes can be as simple as passing a math test to [becoming the] CEO of a major corporation. Goals help to finish projects on time. When I was building a model fish, I set daily goals of what to get done. By building it piece by piece each part was detailed, and when they were put together each piece made the model greater. If the model was done as a whole, less attention to detail would be made and the project may not have gotten done in time.
One long-term goal might be to learn how to ride a skateboard and perform tricks. Trying to learn how to ride a skateboard and new skills would be frustrating and near impossible. But if you break it up into several smaller goals the whole experience becomes less stressful. By becoming proficient in riding the board and only then learning abilities the goal becomes more manageable.
Setting goals keeps you focused on a single task at a time. This makes achieving dreams within reach. Many achievements could never be made without goals.

In my fourth-grade year, we had a book club. We met in the library every Tuesday after school. We each got a list of books that we must read to get into the bluebonnets. The goal that my librarian gave us was five books to read before the competition. There were twenty books on the list. My goal was to read all twenty books. Some of the books were audiobooks. So, I would fall asleep listening to a man or women read the book. And every weekend I would stay up and read or finish my book. A couple of months passed, and we had to compete to see who would make the team and who would not. On the day of the, my mom, dad, and brother went to see me compete We each had to compete in teams. So, my team and I work hard and help each other out. Then, the host announced who won. And the team who won was us. We had the most points. I was so happy to know that we won. Weeks after that, we started taking the club seriously. One thing I remember was that we got a day of school off to go to the library and read. But to be honest most of the time we did not read. We played around a lot, joke around too. So, a few days pass, and competition came. All of us had matching t-shirts. And we all had eaten before we got onto the bus. I was a little nervous on the bus because we had to compete against twenty-six schools. That day my mom got to see my team, and I compete. We had to answer questions about the books that we read. Each school got a remote. The remote was to put in the answer that we got. We were doing good each round a school would get eliminated. We were in the top five schools when another school got eliminated. In the top four schools, we had tried our best
