Cheddar, Swiss, Gorgonzola, and Parmesan are all different types of cheeses we see in so many different types of food, but are cheeses safe to feed to your dog? Cheese in excess amounts can often cause digestive problems for many dogs. Many dogs are lactose intolerant at some level. Excess amounts of cheese given to canines can also lead to potentially greater risks, such as death. However, some veterinarians say that feeding cheese to your puppy can be quite beneficial. When dogs are recovering from illness, feeding them small amounts of cheese can be a good source of protein and vitamins A and B. It's also a great place to hide medication without them knowing.

Read this excerpt from Robert Frost’s “Out, Out—.” Which three characteristics of narrative poetry does it contain?

The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard
And made dust and dropped stove-length sticks of wood,
Sweet-scented stuff when the breeze drew across it.
And from there those that lifted eyes could count
Five mountain ranges one behind the other
Under the sunset far into Vermont.
And the saw snarled and rattled, snarled and rattled,
As it ran light, or had to bear a load.
And nothing happened: day was all but done.
Call it a day, I wish they might have said
To please the boy by giving him the half hour
That a boy counts so much when saved from work.
His sister stood beside him in her apron
To tell them ‘Supper.’ At the word, the saw,
As if to prove saws knew what supper meant,
Leaped out at the boy’s hand, or seemed to leap—
He must have given the hand. However it was,
Neither refused the meeting. But the hand!

Which of the following describes one of the main obstacles Schwermer's lifestyle presents?

Part of that philosophy requires her to put a lot of faith in the unknown. Other than the small notebook she uses to keep track of her scheduled speaking engagements and housing arrangements, most of her plans are left to fate. “I see a lot of miracles in my daily life. For example, in the beginning I found food. I thought about things and then I found them in the street or people came to bring them to me,” she explains. “I think these miracles happen because of our thoughts.” When seasons change, she gives away whatever clothing she has and waits for new items to come along. Most are given by hosts and friends she meets along the way. The road wasn’t always easy. With two adult children and three grandchildren, Schwermer admits her family wasn’t exactly on board when she pitched the idea. She now sees them only a few times per year, but says they eventually warmed up to her come-and-go lifestyle. “Now they’re proud of what I’m doing. It’s enough for us,” she says. Although she never had plans to go public with her life, after a German book publisher pushed her to put pen to paper, Schwermer relented. The latest of three books on her journey, “Seeing Miracles In Life Without Money,” will be released this summer in Germany. As with its predecessors, all her royalties4 will go to the various charitable groups she supports. “Now, more and more young people want to change something in their lives and often they don’t know what they can change,” she says. “I changed something in my life.” Despite the legion of fans that have followed her for years, Schwermer has met her fair share of critics. After a trainwreck appearance on Italian talk show RAI TV, she stopped doing television interviews (in one taping, a host actually rifled through her suitcase).More often than not, however, it’s her friends who become frustrated with her come-and-go lifestyle. She’s turned down many invitations to extend her visits, including offers to stay permanently. “There are so many people who are lonely and they like to have friends at their side,” she says. “But I say no because I can’t. I feel that I must go. It’s always my job to be in the world with people.”

Is followed by the bright and blushing morn,

’Tis darkest when the night is furthest worn.

And do not in thine own gross darkness grope,
Rise up, and casting off thy hind’ring shrouds,
Cling thou to this, and ever inspiring hope:
Tho’ thick the battle and tho’ fierce the fight,
There is a power making for the right.

Passage 1


I work as a tour guide here at the mountain. Climbers sometimes hire me to guide them to the summit. I know all there is to know about Everest. First of all, it is the highest mountain on Earth. In 1979, the area surrounding Everest was designated as a natural world heritage site. It sits on the border between Nepal and Tibet, which is a region of China. In fact, the border runs right up over the peak of the mountain. The summit of Everest soars high above the clouds at an astonishing 29,029 feet. That's almost as high as airplanes fly! On the summit of Everest, climbers stand as close to the stars as they can with both feet still on Earth. I have stood on the breathtaking summit myself almost a dozen times. The feeling is unbelievable, so it is no wonder this towering mountain has attracted climbers for centuries.


Passage 2


To experience Mount Everest, most people who want to climb the mountain hire a tour guide. Tour guides are experts on the mountain and many have climbed the mountain successfully on several occasions. Most of these tour guides have a deep interest in the history of the mountain. They can give climbers valuable information such as explaining that Everest is a natural world heritage site, sits between the border of Nepal and Tibet, and that the border between these two places is right over the mountain peak. Tour guides can also explain different stats to climbers and remind them that they are on one of the highest mountains in the world. Though the trip to the top of the mountain can be grueling, the view from the summit usually astonishes and satisfies those who make it safely.


How does the point of view impact what the reader learns about in each passage?

1 The first-person point of view in Passage 1 allows the reader to learn about how it feels being on the summit, while the third-person point of view in Passage 2 allows the reader learn more about the benefits of tour guides.

2 The first-person point of view in Passage 1 allows the reader to learn about the visible damage to the mountain seen by the author, while the third-person point of view in Passage 2 focuses more on the solutions to the problems.

3 The third-person point of view in Passage 1 allows the reader to learn about where most climbers are from, while the first-person point of view in Passage 2 allows the reader to learn more about the feeling of meeting different climbers.

4 The third-person point of view in Passage 1 allows the reader to learn about the height of the mountain, while the first-person point of view in Passage 2 allows the reader to learn about how it feels standing on the summit.

Read Zion National Park:

In 1917, Horace Albright visited the canyon created by the Virgin River in southwestern Utah. He was amazed at the beauty of the colorful cliffs. Albright determined that this national monument would become a popular tourist destination. The official name of the monument at that time was Mukuntuweap National Monument. It had been named in honor of the Paiutes who lived in the region. Albright thought that the name was difficult to pronounce and proposed a name change. President Woodrow Wilson renamed the monument Zion National Monument, which became Zion National Park in 1919. The number of people visiting the park increased from approximately 300 in 1914 to 1,814 people in 1919.

Zion National Park is known for its many hiking trails. The shortest trail leads to one of the popular destinations: Weeping Rock, a cliff face with a hanging garden. Over the years, water made its way through the Navajo sandstone of the cliff, traveling through pores and creating canyons. Eventually, the water encountered a layer of rock that was impermeable. The water was unable to continue down, so it traveled horizontally. At Weeping Rock, the water comes through the pores of the sandstone. The amount of water that flows out of the rock can be a trickle or a stream, giving the impression that the rock is crying. Vegetation grows in shaded areas of the cliff with water coming through the rock. As the plants grow out of the rock face, they give the illusion that they are hanging in the air.

In the last century, word spread of Zion National Park's many natural treasures, like the Weeping Rock. Roads, trails, and visitor centers were built. More people traveled to Zion in order to hike, horseback ride, and go canyoneering. The Zion-Mount Carmel Tunnel was constructed by 1930. Visitors still use the tunnel to travel from Zion to the Grand Canyon or Bryce Canyon. Now, park rangers are facing problems created by having too many visitors. Trails and campgrounds are overused and need repairs. Visitors are straying off the trails to create their own, thereby damaging the vegetation. Rangers are considering the best ways to protect this national park and maintain its beauty for future generations.

Select the sentence from the text that explains the cause of Weeping Rock's unusual water flow.
