Some parts of the shell floated into the air, forming the heavens, while the rest of the shell formed the earth below. Pangu placed himself between the earth (yin) and the sky (yang). He grew ten feet per day for 18,000 years, increasing the distance between heaven and earth. Upon Pangu’s death, the world and its elements were formed. His breath became the wind and clouds, his voice formed thunder and lightning, his eyes turned into the sun and moon, his limbs became the four compass directions, his torso transformed into mountains, his flesh became soil and trees, his bones became rocks and minerals, his blood flowed into rivers, and his sweat was rain. —"Pangu," Early Chinese myth

Herd about the Flu

It's winter and the flu is raging. It's in your school, you know people who have caught it, and you are washing your hands for the fifth time. Missing school because of flu might not sound so bad, but the flu is one of the worst viruses you can have. The chills, the fever, the severe aches in your legs and arms . . . It's not something you want. Your mom drives you to the drugstore and you see a sign: No Flu Shots Available.

Wait a minute—there is a bad flu this season. You need the shot.

Where is the shot, and why can't you get it?

There are several answers to these questions. First, it just may not be ready. Flu viruses change all of the time, so new flu vaccines must be produced every year, and they take months to develop in research labs.

Read the passage and study the image and caption from Sugar Changed the World.

The interior of a cotton mill factory in Manchester, England, in the 1800's. Women and girls are operating the machinery.

Caption: The first factories were places like this cotton mill in Manchester, England.

All over England, in sooty cities such as Manchester and Liverpool, when the factory whistle blew, workers would set down their presses and file out to drink a quick cup of tea sweetened with sugar—usually dipping a piece of bread in the warm drink. Soon a smart manufacturer figured out that this break, and the need for a jolt of sweetness, was an opportunity. English workers were offered sugary cookies and candies—what we call today energy bars—that quick pick-me-up that helped workers to make it through their long shifts.

Starting around 1800, sugar became the staple food that allowed the English factories—the most advanced economies in the world—to run. Sugar supplied the energy, the hint of nutrition, the sweet taste to go with the warmth of tea that even the poorest factory worker could look forward to. Sugar was a necessity.

How does the image support the text?

The image shows the process for manufacturing cotton in early factories.
The image shows English factory workers enjoying sugar during their break.
The image shows that factory work in the 1800s was labor intensive.
The image shows how sugar was produced in cotton factories.

Read the poem below and answer the question.

The Journey

by Mary Oliver

One day you finally knew

what you had to do, and began,

though the voices around you

kept shouting

their bad advice --

though the whole house

began to tremble

and you felt the old tug

at your ankles.

"Mend my life!"

each voice cried.

But you didn't stop.

You knew what you had to do,

though the wind pried

with its stiff fingers

at the very foundations,

though their melancholy

was terrible.

It was already late

enough, and a wild night,

and the road full of fallen

branches and stones.

But little by little,

as you left their voices behind,

the stars began to burn

through the sheets of clouds,

and there was a new voice

which you slowly

recognized as your own,

that kept you company

as you strode deeper and deeper

into the world,

determined to do

the only thing you could do --

determined to save

the only life you could save.

It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion

Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;

Though winning near the goal-yet, do not grieve;
She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,
For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair!
