Read the passage:
Many greyhounds are adopted to live out their retirement as household pets once their racing careers are over. People may think only very old
dogs are available, but actually even champion racers only work until they are about 3 years old. People worry that a greyhound will be more
active than other breeds and will need a large space to run. These are false impressions. Greyhounds have naturally sweet and mild dispositions,
and while they love to run, they are not distance runners and are sufficiently exercised with a few laps around a backyard every day. Greyhounds
do not make good watchdogs, but they are very good with children, get along well with other dogs (and usually cats as well), and are very
affectionate and loyal. A retired racing greyhound is a wonderful pet for almost anyone.
Question
According to the passage, adopting a greyhound is a good idea for people who...
O already have another dog or a cat
O do not have children
O live in apartments
O do not usually like dogs
What can be concluded about Mrs. Hale from this excerpt from Trifles by Susan Glaspell?
COUNTY ATTORNEY: (with the gallantry of a young politician) And yet, for all their worries, what would we do without the ladies? (The women do not unbend. He goes to the sink, takes a dipperful of water from the pail and pouring it into a basin, washes his hands. Starts to wipe them on the roller-towel, turns it for a cleaner place) Dirty towels! (kicks his foot against the pans under the sink) Not much of a housekeeper, would you say, ladies?
MRS HALE: (stiffly) There's a great deal of work to be done on a farm.
COUNTY ATTORNEY: To be sure. And yet (with a little bow to her) I know there are some Dickson county farmhouses which do not have such roller towels. (He gives it a pull to expose its length again.)
MRS HALE: Those towels get dirty awful quick. Men's hands aren't always as clean as they might be.
Mrs. Hale believes that Mrs. Wright is innocent.
Mrs. Hale is not a good housekeeper.
Mrs. Hale wants to defend Mrs. Wright in her absence.
Mrs. Hale feels guilty for not visiting her neighbor earlier.
Mrs. Hale does not like the county attorney's attitude.
Answer:
Mrs. Hale wants to defend Mrs. Wright in her absence.
Mrs. Hale does not like the county attorney's attitude.
Explanation:
The play Trifles written by Susan Glaspell revolves around the murder of Mr. Wright. Mrs. Wright, his wife, is one of the suspects.
In the given excerpt, we can see that Mrs. Hale, Mrs. Wright's neighbor, wants to defend Mrs. Wright in her absence and does not like the county attorney's attitude.
The county attorney criticizes the towels in the Wrights' house, stating that Mrs. Wright isn't a good housewife. Mrs. Hale stands up for her, despite her being absent. She knows how hard it is to deal with an entire farm, especially when men don't help out. She doesn't like that and doesn't hide how dissatisfied she is with the county attorney's attitude.
There is nothing showing us that Mrs. Hale believes that Mrs. Wright is innocent or that she feels guilty for not visiting her neighbor earlier. This is why the third and fifth options are the correct ones.

It was Friday, and as she walked home from school, Samara thought about what she would do that weekend. Everyone would be at the fund-raiser for new sports equipment at the high school on Saturday. As she was trying to remember if any good movies were coming out this weekend, she noticed a group of kids playing tag. Samara thought they looked comical running around in circles on a small plot of land between two houses. “Well, they certainly seem happy,” thought Samara as the light turned and she crossed the street.
On the opposite side of Cherry Street, Samara saw Mr. Peters sitting on a bench. He was reading his newspaper as the heavy traffic of the town’s main thoroughfare whizzed by him. She wondered how he could concentrate. Later, as she took the last turn onto her street, Samara saw her neighbor planting her annual vegetable garden. Every year, Mrs. Yang grew eggplant, cucumbers, and bok choy, because that’s all she had room for. “The garden looks good so far, Mrs. Yang,” Samara called.
“Thank you, dear,” Mrs. Yang said. “You know, if I had room, I would plant enough vegetables to feed the entire neighborhood! My mother had a garden that was one square acre when I was a little girl in Korea.”
As Samara nodded and waved goodbye, she started thinking about what she had seen on her walk home that day. She realized that Pine Grove did not have any open public spaces where everyone could go to relax and enjoy nature. The only unused space was a vacated plot on Cedar Avenue that was completely overgrown. Suddenly, Samara had a great idea. She decided to spend her summer campaigning for a new community park. The only problem was that she had no idea where to start.
That evening, she went to the library and learned about what she would need to do in order to get the idea in front of the town zoning board. It was all a little intimidating, but Wanda, the reference librarian, helped Samara break it down into manageable steps. When Samara mentioned the Cedar Avenue plot, Wanda’s eyes lit up. “That is a perfect spot,” Wanda said. “It’s right in the middle of town, and better yet, the town owns it.”
Samara spent many afternoons over the next few weeks at the library with Wanda and a few other librarians drawing up a detailed plan to present to town officials. Samara and the librarians even planned and priced out irrigation necessary for the area that was designated as a garden. When the day of the zoning board meeting arrived, Samara felt nervous, but Wanda and the other librarians were there for moral support. Samara thought she at least sounded confident as she presented her idea to the board. When she finished her presentation, she was ready to wait patiently for an answer; Wanda told her that this kind of decision might take weeks, so Samara was surprised when the board members asked her to stay while they deliberated. The president of the board explained that Samara’s presentation had been the last order of business for the day, and he wanted his board to be able to agree on one thing before they left. After about 15 minutes, Samara was informed that the community park had been approved.
Samara had been telling her neighbors and friends about the park from the moment she thought of it, and it seemed as though everyone wanted to be a part of making her vision a reality. As soon as her idea was approved, Samara called a meeting for anyone interested in collaborating. At the meeting, residents voted on what would be included on the land: a playset for young children and one for older children, a swing set, several park benches, and a dog run. It was also decided that there would be a cooperative organic vegetable garden and an herb garden at the north end of the park. Residents agreed that Mrs. Yang would manage the gardens.
At Wanda’s suggestion, Samara asked a representative from a nearby horticultural society to come and advise the group on the design of the park, the best native shrubs to plant, and where to put them. Samara also asked local businesses to sponsor the park by the square foot so that the community would be able to afford equipment and plants. Surprised by the response, Samara went to the bank to open an account where the surplus would be saved for next spring. In a few weeks’ time, the space had been cleared and residents were beginning to roll out sod and plant small vegetable plants and summer flowers. By midsummer, the community was able to enjoy the new, peaceful space. Samara was happy to have been part of creating not only a beautiful space, but a common area where residents could come together.

4: "That evening, she went to the library and learned about what she would need to do in order to get the idea in front of the town zoning board."

can you please rewrite this in your own words:
Diabetes is the condition in which the body does not properly process food for use as energy. Most of the food we eat is turned into glucose, or sugar, for our bodies to use for energy. The pancreas, an organ that lies near the stomach, makes a hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cells of our bodies. When you have diabetes, your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use its own insulin as well as it should. This causes sugars to build up in your blood. This is why many people refer to diabetes as “sugar.” Diabetes can cause serious health complications including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity amputations. Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States.
Answer:
Diabetes occurs when the body is unable to produce energy from food. When we consume food, our bodies are able to turn the food into sugar, glucose, or energy. The pancrease produces insluin, a hormone that helps our bodies cells get the glucose that it needs. If the body is unable to produce enough insulin, or use the insulin it does produce properly, then the sugar can accumulate in our blood.
Some of the complications brought on by having diabetes is blindness, subject to amputation of the lower limbs, heart disease, and kidney failure. Diabetes is a serious condition and in the United States, it is ranked the seventh leading cause of death.

Read the excerpt from Esperanza Rising. Esperanza looked down at Silvia's dirty hands. Silvia grinned up at her and Esperanza's first thought was to pull her hand away and wash it as soon as possible. Then she remembered Mama's kindness to the peasant girl on the train—and her disappointment in Esperanza. She didn't want Silvia to start crying if she were to pull away. She looked around at the dusty camp and thought that it must be hard to stay clean in such a place. She squeezed Silvia's hand and said, "I have a best friend, too. Her name is Marisol and she lives in Aguascalientes." This passage shows a change in Esperanza because she forgets her best friend, Marisol, and makes Silvia her new best friend. she washes her dirty hands instead of asking Silvia to wash hers. she is gentle with Silvia instead of acting unkind like she did with the peasant girl. she remembers Mama’s kindness, then acts rudely to the dirty little girl.

In the days since she and her family had sailed away from Germany and the refugee camp, Liisi had spent many hours staring out at the ocean waves from the deck. Somehow, in the back of her mind, she had always believed they would return home to Estonia after the war. Yet, every time she had mentioned this to her parents, they just frowned and changed the subject. After they had escaped the Russians and fled to Germany, there had been no real home for them except the cramped apartment in the little German town of Geislingen where the U.S. Army housed Estonian refugees. Liisi had made good friends there—her Girl Scout troop of five had been inseparable—but now they were all scattered to the winds. Two of the girls had stayed in Germany, and the other two were going to Canada. Here she was all alone sailing to America.
Feeling mighty lonely, Liisi reached into the inside pocket of her coat and pulled out a photograph. On it was her Girl Scout troop, all dressed in traditional Estonian costumes for a dance they had organized at the refugee camp. The dress Liisi wore was too small, as she had worn it back in Tallinn when she was younger. Liisi ran her thumb over the image of herself and closed her eyes as she remembered.
"Liisi, hold still while I button your dress!" Her mother scolded.
But Liisi was so eager to join the other kids in Tallinn's town square, she could not stop moving. At 10, she was just old enough to join in the folk dances as the city celebrated Jaanipäev—John's Day, or Midsummer's Eve. The June 23 festival always made her giddy with delight, and as her mother finally released her, she gave her a swift hug and flew out the door.
The square was just a few blocks away, and Liisi could hear the cheers of the crowd as she raced down the cobblestone streets. As she rounded the last corner and entered the square, the dancing had already begun. She was so glad she had paid attention when her mom taught her the traditional steps. Making her way to the front of the crowd, Liisi's school friends waved to her. She caught up to them just as the band started playing, and they arranged themselves in a line for the next dance. At that moment, Liisi could not imagine ever living anywhere else.
The wind had picked up, and the ocean spray woke Liisi from her reverie. A tear had made its way down her cheek, and she wiped it away before replacing the photo in her pocket.
"That was then," she told herself sternly and pushed those other thoughts away. Then, she turned her back to the ocean as if to leave her entire past behind her and went to find her parents.
