REVISING (Passage 1)



Cheryl has written an essay for her English class. Read Cheryl's rough draft then answer the questions that follow.



An Adventure of a Lifetime



(1) More and more people are starting to look in places other than their chosen career paths to find meaning and satisfaction in life, and one of the most popular

ways folks are doing this is through volunteerism. (2) One specific kind of volunteerism, though, is becoming increasingly popular with people of all ages and stages

in life—volunteer vacations. (3) This kind of vacation, one where the traveler pays her own way and volunteers her time and efforts while on the trip, is being

embraced by people all over the world. (4) The best thing about volunteer vacations is that not only does the traveler get to escape her familiar surroundings and

see new sights, but she also comes home knowing that she has done something. (5) That knowledge brings a kind of satisfaction that a regular vacation cannot

deliver.



(6) Volunteer vacations take travelers almost anywhere across the globe to work on a huge selection of causes. (7) Worried about the elephants in Sri Lanka? (8)

Book a trip to its capital, Colombo, and journey to an elephant sanctuary. (9) Concerned about families living in poverty in Costa Rica? (10) Bring your whole family

down to help build new homes and learn a little Spanish while doing so. (11) Volunteer vacations can take willing helpers to the farthest reaches and most exotic

locations—some luxurious resorts are situated in areas that are steeped in poverty, so vacationers willing to spend half their time working can visit such places in

beautiful countries such as Bali, Mexico, and Brazil. (12) There is almost no limit to where adventurers can go.



(13) Perhaps the most compelling reason to consider a volunteer vacation is the feeling of intrinsic happiness and satisfaction of doing important, helpful work. (14)

Even if a volunteer cannot stay in the location long enough to see a project to its completion, just knowing that one’s work has helped people in need, brought vital

resources to folks who needed it, or helped to save endangered plants or animals brings a kind of pride and sense of meaning that simply spending money to lie by a

pool could never deliver. (15) This alone is part of what has caused volunteer vacations to become awesomely popular across the globe.



(16) There may be no better feeling than being able to visit an exotic location, learn something new, and return home knowing that one’s efforts have helped to

change the world. (17) Because the whole goal behind a vacation is to escape one’s usual, familiar surroundings and refuel, volunteer vacations seem like a win-win

situation with a promise of some kind of success for both the volunteer and those helped by the work. (18) For these reasons, a volunteer vacation is an adventure of

a lifetime.

Qestions: 1) Which of the following would best replace done something to provide a clearer ending to sentence 4?

gotten away from home

built a house

affected positive change

taken time to relax

2) Cheryl wants to add a better transition between the second paragraph (sentences 6–12) and the third paragraph (sentences 13–15). Which of the following sentences should be added after sentence 12 to help readers effectively transition from the second paragraph to the third?

Why not consider trying one of many different and exciting types of volunteer vacations available today?

Adventurers can go anywhere in the world that they can imagine.

Volunteers of any age can travel the world on a volunteer vacation.Volunteers of any age can travel the world on a volunteer vacation.

If benefiting others isn’t reason enough to try a volunteer vacation, imagine the ways you might benefit.

3) Cheryl wants to improve her word choice in sentence 15 to match the tone that is appropriate for her audience and purpose. Which phrase best replaces become awesomely popular?

skyrocket in likability

surge in popularity

change in recognition

increase in interest

Read this excerpt from the poem "Lincoln Looked.”

Lincoln looked forward and saw
a divided house cannot stand.
He looked ahead, beyond the brim
of his stovepipe hat, and where
there were many people, he saw one.

Lincoln looked up at the clouds
turning in the sky and knew that
the nation was doing the same thing
in time.

It was time for a change. Lincoln
looked deep within himself and searched
for the recipe for a new country made
from so many wild and unique ingredients.

Which kind of structure does this poem have?

rhythmic verse
formal verse
free verse
repetitive verse

Is this a good fable


The Fox and The Four Deer

By: Christian Steele

Once upon a time, there were 4 deer. Chase, Starbuck, Hurricane, and, Willow. They were walking when a fox started chasing them. The 4 deer always bragged that they were the swiftest in the land. And today was their chance to show everybody just how fast they were. They were winning the race until they started acting too cocky. The fox was starting to gain speed and catch up to the 4 deer. He ate one of the 4 deer. The other 3 ran faster than before. Now they were in grave danger. And they got away before he could get them. Their mom always told them they should watch what they say. The 3 learned a valuable lesson: don’t lie when you’re not really fast or you may end up losing your life or your siblings’ lives.

A Special Evening

I was a server at a fancy restaurant for about four years. I was pretty good at waiting tables, so I made good tips. People didn't take much notice of me as I refilled drinks or cleared empty plates. They just kept talking. Other times, a guest asked me to help make his or her loved one feel special. I always enjoyed helping people celebrate important occasions.
One evening, a young man brought his date to the restaurant. He treated her well—held the door open for her, slid her chair out, and pushed her chair in. I couldn't tell if it was their first date or not. The man seemed very anxious, but the woman seemed at ease. When the woman left the table, the man frantically waved for my attention. I rushed over and asked if he needed something.
"I'm going to propose to my girlfriend. I need your help. When you bring the dessert, put this ring on top of the cake. Then, I will get down on one knee. Please make sure that nothing happens to the ring. It cost a fortune," the man said.
"Sure thing, man. I'll take good care of the ring. Good luck," I said as I put it in my pocket.
I was happy when I saw the couple laughing and holding hands. I was pretty sure that the young woman would accept the proposal. Finally, it was time to bring the dessert. Eagerly, I went to the kitchen and placed the diamond ring on top of a slice of cheesecake. Then, I had a brilliant idea of how to make the presentation even more special. I went to the storage room to get a candle and a lighter. When I returned to the kitchen, the cheesecake with the diamond ring was gone. Just as I reached the front of the restaurant to see if another server had taken it, I heard, "Yes! Robert, I will marry you!"
Anxiously, I looked to see who had accepted the marriage proposal. I saw a happy-looking middle-aged woman admiring the diamond ring on her finger and a stunned-looking middle-aged man with his mouth hanging open in disbelief. Then, I noticed the guest who had given me the ring. He looked horrified. His face was pale and his eyes were bulging from their sockets. I glanced at his girlfriend. She was smiling and watching the woman with the diamond ring. She had no idea that the ring had been meant for her.
I wasn't quite sure what to do. I suppose that my flight or fight response kicked in. I untied my apron, ran out the door, and never went back.


A. The narrator tells the story without becoming involved.

B. The narrator shows that the events personally affect him.
