Read this excerpt from "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi."

Teddy shouted to the house: "Oh, look here! Our mongoose is killing a snake”; and Rikki-tikki heard a scream from Teddy's mother. His father ran out with a stick, but by the time he came up, Karait had lunged out once too far, and Rikki-tikki had sprung, jumped on the snake's back, dropped his head far between his fore-legs, bitten as high up the back as he could get hold, and rolled away. That bite paralysed Karait, and Rikki-tikki was just going to eat him up from the tail, after the custom of his family at dinner, when he remembered that a full meal makes a slow mongoose, and if he wanted all his strength and quickness ready, he must keep himself thin.

Who is the protagonist in this excerpt?

A. Karait, because he causes the danger

C. Rikki-tikki, because he solves the problem

Which lines in this excerpt of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol reflect the theme of compassion versus material gain?

[“But you were always a good man of business, Jacob,” faltered Scrooge, who now began to apply this to himself.]

[“Business!” cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. “Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, we’re all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!”]

It held up its chain at arms length, as if that were the cause of all its unavailing grief, and flung it heavily upon the ground again.

“At this time of the rolling year,” the spectre said, “I suffer most. Why did I walk through crowds of fellow beings with my eyes turn down, and never raise them to that blessed Star which led the Wise Men to a poor abode! Were there are no poor homes to which its light would have conducted me!”

[Scrooge was very much dismayed to hear the spectre going on at this rate, and began to quake exceedingly.]

“Hear me!”cried the Ghost. “My time is nearly gone.”

“I will,” said Scrooge. “But don’t be hard upon me! Don’t be flowery, Jacob! Pray!”

“How it is that I appear before you in a shape that you can see, I may not tell. I have sat invisible beside you many and many a day.”

It was not an agreeable idea. Scrooge shivered, and wiped the perspiration from his brow.

[That is no light part of my penance,” pursued the Ghost. “I am here to-night to warn you, that you have yet a chance and hope of escaping my fate. A chance and hope of my procuring, Ebenezer.”]

“You we’re always a good friend to me,” said Scrooge. “Thank’ee!”

Select the correct text in the passage. In this excerpt from "Hansel and Gretel" by the Brothers Grimm, which two sentences reveal through Indirect characterization that Hansel is a caring brother? The two children had also not been able to sleep for hunger, and had heard what their stepmother had said to their father. Gretel wept bitter tears, and said to Hansel: "Now all is over with us." "Be quiet, Gretel," said Hansel, "do not distress yourself, I will soon find a way to help us." And when the old folks had fallen asleep, he got up, put on his little coat, opened the door below, and crept outside. The moon shone brightly, and the white pebbles which lay in front of the house glittered like real silver pennies. Hansel stooped and stuffed the little pocket of his coat with as many as he could get in. Then he went back and said to Gretel: "Be comforted, dear little sister, and sleep in peace, God will not forsake us," and he lay down again in his bed. When day dawned, but before the sun had risen, the woman came and awoke the two children, saying: "Get up, you sluggards! we are going into the forest to fetch wood." She gave each a little piece of bread, and said: "There is something for your dinner, but do not eat it up before then, for you will get nothing else." Gretel took the bread under her apron, as Hansel had the pebbles in his pocket. Then they all set out together on the way to the forest. When they had walked a short time, Hansel stood still and peeped back at the house, and did so again and again. His father sald: "Hansel, what are you looking at there and staying behind for? Pay attention, and do not forget how to use your legs." "Ah, father," said Hansel, "I am looking at my little white cat, which is sitting up on the roof, and wants to say goodbye to me." Reset Next​

Read the excerpt from Panic in Washington Square Park.


Cassandra froze, paralyzed in place at the idea that her beloved animal had been lost. Suddenly, like a wave crashing into the sea, Cassandra jolted forward, ran around the corner, and found her mother.


With wild eyes and deep breaths, Cassandra confronted the Doggy Daycare owner, Jeremy, who had his arms crossed and fear in his eyes.
Jeremy explained that Cam had been playing with the other dogs in the dog run all afternoon. However, when Carol arrived, Cam fled into the park. Jeremy's employees had searched the park, without any luck. Cassandra took a deep, steadying breath and turned to her mother.


"We are going to search this entire park until we find Cam," she resolved, "and we need to start right now."


How do the paragraphs work together to develop the story?


In the first paragraph, Cassandra felt frozen, which introduced the setting that was confirmed in the last paragraph.

In the first paragraph, Cassandra found her mother, which led to a conflict between the two characters about permission in the last paragraph.

In the first paragraph, Cassandra learned that her pet was lost, which introduced the problem that she decided to solve in the last paragraph.

In the first paragraph, Cassandra was feeling sick, which led to a major event when she decided to go home.
