Read this excerpt from “Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl.”

I went about my evening work with trembling steps. Mr. Flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. I replied that I had not done my work. "You have had time enough to do it," said he. "Take care how you answer me!"

I shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. How long those hours seemed, and how fervently I prayed that God would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! I was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if I failed, O what would become of me and my poor children? They would be made to suffer for my fault.

At half past twelve I stole softly down stairs. I stopped on the second floor, thinking I heard a noise. I felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. The night was so intensely dark that I could see nothing. I raised the window very softly and jumped out. Large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. I dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to God for guidance and protection. I groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.

What is the main idea of this excerpt?

Harriet worked for a man called Mr. Flint who became very impatient when she did not finish her work.
Harriet waited until after midnight to run down the stairs and jump out of a window into the rain.
Harriet was a frightened young girl who found the faith and courage to leave her home for an unknown life.
Harriet felt very nervous about running away because she did not like being alone in the darkness.

Answers

My first idea is this—
My only friend is the moon. //
In times times, with darkness as my blanket //
And moonlight as my bed //
I could see worlds passing through, //
Like herds of cloud-spun sheep dancing through my head. //
And above it all I saw the shining face
Of my one and only friend. //
(New stanza)
My only friend is the moon. //
Now I gaze at the sun //
Wondering how people bear its harsh gaze; //
Your gentle hands were so much softer //
And your breezes as sweet as April rain. //
Do you promise to always be here with me? //
(New stanza)
My only friend was the moon. //
Now I gaze up at the empty sky //
And where I once saw her chiseled face //
Is a chalked stone, is a lie; //
Where have you gone, my friend in the moon? //
You promised you’d stay here; you //
(New stanza)
Told me, “dear, //
My name is Moon. //
I am your only friend, //
But I’ll stay true.” //
I’ll wait a thousand years //
Till my skin is turned to ash //
And my eyes to stone; //
I’ll wait, if only you come home. //

Read the excerpt from the story Animals in the Zoo.

They all hopped on their bikes and rode off to their first exhibit, the African Region part of the zoo. There, they saw ostriches, giraffes, gorillas, and zebras. They also saw kudus, a type of antelope found throughout eastern and southern Africa. Preston told the group that the kudus were losing their habitat in the wild and asked if anyone knew why this was happening.

Ryan raised his hand as fast as he could and answered with certainty, "Their population is declining because of deforestation and poaching."

Read the excerpt from the story Winter Driving.

Jesper had to get home, but he wasn't too worried because he had always been a cautious driver. He told himself that he would go slowly and take his time. He didn't have to be home at a specific time, which helped. The first half of the drive went off without a hitch, no trouble at all. Although he did see one car on the side of the road, it didn't seem like they were in distress, so he kept driving along. They probably were just nervous and decided to pull over. However, Jesper wasn't nervous. He had driven in treacherous conditions before, and he knew how to handle his vehicle.

Which best describes the main character in each excerpt?

Cautious
Confident
Concerned
Creative

Answers

Answer:

I would have to say in 'Animals in the zoo' they were Concerned and in 'Winter Driving' they were Cautious.

Why?: In the story Animals in the Zoo, when it said "Preston told the group that the kudus were losing their habitat in the wild and asked if anyone knew why this was happening.  

Ryan raised his hand as fast as he could and answered with certainty" he was Concerned.

In the story Winter Driving, when it said "Jesper had to get home, but he wasn't too worried because he had always been a cautious driver." Jesper was Cautious.

Pokhara is a piece of heaven in the world. There are many beautiful and interesting places to visit in Nepal, outside the Kathmandu Valley. Pokhara is one of the most scenic and exciting valley in Nepal. Pokhara valley is the ‘Jewel of the mid-west’, second major tourist sport in Nepal but the favorite of tourists from around the globe. It is linked by Air and by road from Kathmandu and the Indian border Sunauli. Pokhara lies 200 kilometers west of Kathmandu six hours by car and 25 minutes by flight. It is famous for its lakes and its location beneath the towering Annapurna massif. It is highly recommendable to visit this scenic valley, stay in small resort hotels with views of the magnificent Himalayan peaks, go boating on the calm waters of the Phewa and the Begnas lakes or go on tours or day hikes in the nearby hills or if time permits, on a well-organized trekking holiday.

Further 12 km east of Pokhara at the end of a road that turns north from highway to Kathmandu lies the Begnas Lake offering the perfect nature retreat because of its relative seclusion. Splendid hiking, boating and fishing opportunities can be found here. The Begnas Lake Resort, located on a hillside of unspoiled forestland with guest rooms built on rice terraces close to the lake offers magnificent views over tranquil waters of the Begnas, beautiful ethnic villages on the opposite hillsides and the snowy mountain peaks from every room.

Pokhara is an enormous sunlit playground of green hills, lakes, forests, rivers, waterfalls, terraced fields. For the mountain lover the Annapurna range and the Fishtail peak, appeared to be just standing in front of you with overwhelming views. Pokhara offers a mild climate is famous for the natural beauty of its great lakeside location, magnificent views of Dhaulagiri, Fishtail, Manaslu, five peaks of Annapurna and others. This is one of the few places in the world to provide such a dramatic view in a sub-tropical setting. Millions of people travel thousands of miles in the search of Heaven or Paradise on Earth, fully unaware of the existence of a corner of real paradise. This city popularly known as “City of Tourism” is absolutely free from any type of pollution. Pokhara valley is situated at an altitude of 827 meters from sea level. It is one of the most picturesque spots of Nepal.
