The Ride of His Life

When Jesse Senko was 12 years old, he had an experience that literally changed his life. Senko was snorkeling while on vacation in the Cayman Islands with his family when a large sea turtle swam near him. Senko naturally did what any 12-year-old boy would do and decided to grab the turtle and go for a ride. That turtle ride, in some ways, has never ended. People find their passions in many different ways. Senko found his passion while riding on the back of a turtle when he was just 12 years old.

Today, Senko is a conservation scientist at Arizona State University. He focuses his research and life’s work on marine resource sustainability. Can you guess what that includes? If you guessed sea turtles, you would be correct. In college, Senko majored in fisheries and wildlife science, and he also received a Master of Science degree in wildlife ecology. Much of the focus of his work is on saving endangered sea turtles.

Sea turtles help keep the ocean healthy, and thus their well-being affects the entire ecosystem. They provide a natural regulatory system for the environment. For example, sea turtles eat seagrass, which helps it grow properly, and their unhatched eggs provide nutrients for plant life to keep beaches healthy. Sea turtles also provide a home for small animals that attach to their shells.

Sea turtles are endangered because fishermen inadvertently catch them in their nets, which can cause the turtles irreparable harm. Senko came up with the idea to create solar-powered fishing nets so fishermen can readily see when they accidentally catch a sea turtle. Because the lights are solar powered, the fishermen do not have to maintain the lights or change the batteries. This technology has resulted in a 65 percent reduction in sea turtle catches thus far. Senko’s goal is a 100 percent reduction.

In "The Ride of His Life," what is the author's viewpoint toward Senko’s career?

Senko is overly protective of sea turtles.

Senko is passionate about working with marine wildlife.

Senko is on the cutting edge of modern technology.

Senko is an avid fisherman who wants to help save wildlife.

Answer

Option two, Senko is passionate about working with marine wildlife.

I was there in the winter of '64
When we camped in the ice at Nashville's doors
Three hundred miles our trail had lead
We barely had time to bury our dead
When the Yankees charged and the colors fell
Overton hill was a living hell
When we called retreat it was almost dark
I died with a grapeshot in my heart

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set my spirit free
Let me lay down my gun
Sweet mother Mary I'm so tired
But I can't come home 'til the last shot's fired

In June of 1944
I waded in the blood of Omaha's shores
Twenty-one and scared to death
My heart poundin' in my chest
I almost made the first seawall
When my friends turned and saw me fall
I still smell the smoke, I can taste the mud
As I lay there dying from a loss of blood

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set my spirit free
Let me lay down my gun
Sweet mother Mary I'm so tired
But I can't come home 'til the last shot's fired

I'm in the fields of Vietnam
The mountains of Afghanistan
And I'm still hopin', waitin' prayin'
I did not die in vain

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set our spirits free
Let us lay down our guns
Sweet mother Mary we're so tired
But we can't come home 'til the last shot's fired
'Til the last shot's fired


Say a prayer for peace (for peace)
For our daughters and our sons
Set our spirits free (set us free)
Let us lay down our guns


Sweet mother Mary, we're so tired
But we can't come home (No we can't come home)


'Til the last shot's fired

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December;
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.

From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore —
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore —
Nameless here for evermore.

a)

The narrator attempts to distract himself from his grief through reading.

b)

The fire throws shadows on the floor that look like ghosts.

Mark is preparing for a group discussion with his class peers. The topic is the good and bad effects of computers on young people. He has prepared a few points on the topic.

Which sentence in his presentation text stresses that the change he is discussing has had positive effects?

I believe that computers have changed the way we function in our daily lives. It’s true that some people might argue that computers have made youth lazy. But it's equally true that computers have made our lives more efficient. It‘s much easier to complete class projects or our homework with the help of computers. Through the use of computers and the Internet, we can find all sorts of information. Also, it takes less time to locate that information. Computers help us analyze and manage our daily work and activities in a systematic manner. Along with these benefits, computers can be extremely entertaining. We can use social networks to talk to people, play different sorts of games, listen to music, or even watch movies and TV programs. But spending hours on a social networking website or on playing games is not a productive use of time. It's one of the few reasons why computers are seen as a negative influence on youth.

Read this excerpt from a passage.
Schools also censor by prohibiting some articles to be printed in student newspapers. Approximately 74 percent of high schools in the United States offer student newspapers or journalism programs. Student publications are a safe venue where adolescents can express their opinions. These programs are often run by students and overseen by teachers and other adults at the school. Before articles are printed, they usually go through an editing and review process. Although this is a normal part of the publication process, it can sometimes lead to censorship. There have been many cases where portions of the text or entire articles have been removed from school newspapers for being inappropriate. A famous Supreme Court case involving this issue occurred in 1988 in Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier. The principal of Hazelwood East High School prohibited two topics from being printed in the school newspaper. Hazelwood East students brought the case to court, arguing that their First Amendment right to free speech had been violated. In this case, the court ruled that the principal did not violate the students’ free speech right. The court pointed out that the school newspaper was not a "public forum," and that, therefore, students did not have the same First Amendment rights as other journalists. Many people were outraged by this decision and continue to fight censorship in school newspapers.

Which of these lists the correct main idea and major details of this excerpt?

A) Main Idea: Student newspapers are a popular form of expression for young people.
Major Detail: Student publications are a safe venue where adolescents can express their opinions.
Major Detail: Students have the same First Amendment right to free speech as professional journalists do.
B) Main Idea: Many people are outraged at the idea of student journalists not having the same First Amendment rights as other journalists.

Major Detail: The editing and review process for student newspapers can lead to censorship.
Major Detail: Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier is an example of a Supreme Court case involving censorship in student newspapers.
D) Main Idea: Approximately 74 percent of high schools in the United States offer student newspapers or journalism programs.
