The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Part 1

Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove.
"I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.
No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted.
*The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abel’s offering was accepted by God, but Cain’s was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, "Am I my brother’s keeper?" By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business. (Genesis 4:1-16)

A "backward in sentiment"
B "austere with himself"
C "undemonstrative at the best"
D "approved tolerance for others"

Finally, I did get across. Late one night me and my wife went. I had gone back to the plantation to get her. Mr. Rankins had him a bell by this time, along with the light. We were rowin and rowin. We could see the light and hear that bell, but it seemed we weren't getting any closer. It took forever, it seemed. That was because we were so scared and it was so dark and we knew we could get caught and never get gone. Which statement best describes the speaker's viewpoint of his escape? He is nervous that Mr. Rankins will make him go back. He is terrified that he will get caught crossing the river. He is worried that he will have to leave without his wife. He is doubtful that he will be free after he crosses the river.

New Technology Leads to Bigger Cities
In the 1800s, the Uniodd States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of
society following the introduction of machines.

The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments
caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.
Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production.

Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The
abundance caused food prices to fall.

The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in
northern factories as a way to support their families.

Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today,
the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.

As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization,
In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S.
residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with
more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and
New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.

The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so
quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural
areas.

Which sentence from the introduction paragraph serves as the author's thesis?

O In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity.
O The Industrial Revolution began in Britain, a fast development of society following the Introduction of machines,
O The United States was slower than Britain to fully embrace the changes.
O Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.
