STORIES OF USEFUL INVENTIONS, excerpt
By S. E. Forman
1911
THE MATCH
There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.
Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.
In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
What was the main problem with relying on nature to start a flame? (5 points)
Fire could only be collected with "sticks of wood" that were hard to find.
Fire had to be "carefully guarded," requiring someone to stay behind from hunting.
Fire had to be "carried to the home," which could be dangerous and awkward.
Fire was likely hard to find, requiring a "long journey and a deal of trouble."
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
They had to go and find it, which took a long time, then they had to take it home with them to light their fires.

Passage 1: Excerpt from Will Yellow School Buses Soon Become Rolling Ads?
1 Tight school budgets could soon translate into Missouri school districts’ selling ad space on yellow school buses.
2 Missouri state Rep. T.J. Berry, R-Kearney, says his bill—HB 224—isn’t a cure-all by any stretch. But legalizing ads inside and outside the buses would give school districts one additional way to raise money in these tough times.
3 “Every single school district has had to deal with budget concerns,” Berry said last week. “And generally speaking, the way they have had to deal with those has been cuts or tax increases.”
4 The school bus is something that is already out there and paid for, he said. His bill would permit districts to generate a modest stream of income from their buses.
5 Few question the need for finding additional funds when it comes to educating children, but at least two groups think the school bus exteriors should remain ad-free.
6 “There is no such thing as free money,” said Josh Golin, associate director for the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood. “There are real costs to this: the price of selling out your students to advertisers.”
7 Students don’t need the first and last message they receive from their schools each day to be advertisements, Golin said. Students boarding a bus are certainly a captive audience.
8 The National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services opposes advertising on safety grounds. Obscuring the recognizable school-bus yellow exterior with ads and distracting other drivers “present a safety problem around school buses that cannot be ignored,” the group said in its position paper.
9 National studies have shown that anything that diverts a driver’s attention from the road can pose a hazard, opponents say.
10 “And a big yellow bus doesn’t distract?” Berry asked.
11 Several years ago in Indiana, a Department of Education lawyer suggested that allowing advertisements on buses would invite First Amendment challenges by spurned advertisers, the group noted.
12 Berry said the bill would limit the types of advertising that would be allowed.
13 The regulations would prohibit ads that contain obscene or sexual material, or messages associated with gambling, tobacco products, alcohol, and political campaigns or causes. The ads could not promote drug use or “any illegal activity or antisocial behavior.” They can’t contain “harmful, discriminatory, false, misleading or deceptive” messages.
14 “There are a lot of safeguards being built in,” he said.
15 Berry emphasized that the space reserved for the ads would be “very limited,” meaning toward the back of the bus.
16 By 2012, nine states—Arizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas and Utah—permitted advertising on the exterior of school buses, according to the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. Several, including Missouri, considered it last year.
17 The bill made it out of the Missouri House last year but did not clear the Senate, Berry said. He acknowledged that the idea was “very controversial.”

In Passage 1, how does the author represent the various points of view on the issue of advertisements on school buses?
A)by providing quotes from people on both sides of the issue
B)by describing the financial benefits for both sides of the issue
C)by sharing anecdotes from politicians on both sides of the issue
D)by elaborating on the benefits that would result from both sides of the issue

D)5th stanza
(the poem
I gaze out the tour bus window at an ancient land.
The green fields could tell tales of centuries past.
Snaking rivers have chased their own tails and shed their blue skins
But are here for now.
5 I see a grove of trees sway slightly in the soft wind ahead.
Branches mime silent secrets beyond the window.
Shades of leaves have bloomed and faded and fallen again
But are here for now.
I look at a town of rubble beyond the passing trees.
10 Broken bricks and shattered shingles lie in a crisp grid of ruin.
This ancient village has prospered and faded, now felled by the axe of progress,
But is here for now.
It looks as if trees were planted to obscure the past.
These walls of leaves hide houses in pieces.
15 Someone wants to forget this short breath of history that has come and drifted onward
But is here for now.
Ahead a city gleams, a new horizon on ancient land.
Miles of glass and steel that speak at night with endless light.
A great future has arrived—an immovable age!

But it is really only here for now.

(this is the bolded paragraph)There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one.

It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
Which line from the bolded paragraph shows the value of the match?
…but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire
…it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily
There never was a time when the world was without fire
In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match
Answer:
1. The purpose of the line "In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match..." is to imply the main idea of the article. The statement that we can easily kindle fire today implies that there was a time when it wasn't so easy. That is why people had to figure out a way to kindle a fire without looking for a natural source. All of this supports the article's main idea, that match was a brilliant invention, which we shouldn't take for granted.
2. This line shows the need for matches. People had troubles with finding the fire, but it got even harder because any fire can easily get extinguished. This proves there was an urgent need to find a way to kindle fire without having to resort to nature at all times. The line doesn't show how dependable nature is - on the contrary, it shows that humans had to find a way to not depend on it. It doesn't show how people got the fire, or how long it took to make matches.
3. The correct answer is thesaurus. It is not an encyclopedia or an ordinary dictionary, but a dictionary of synonyms, that is words with similar meanings. It also contains antonyms (words with opposite meanings) and words with related meanings. When we don't know what a word means, we use a dictionary or an encyclopedia (or Wikipedia, for that matter). However, when we know its meaning, but are looking for a more appropriate word, we use a thesaurus.

TEXT 1:Since 1983, the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) and the Sudanese Government have been at war in southern Sudan. The conflict has already claimed more than 500,000 lives and displaced huge numbers of people. Among these were at least 20,000 children, mostly boys, between 7 and 17 years of age who were separated from their families. These ‘lost boys’ of the Sudan trekked enormous distances over a vast unforgiving wilderness, seeking refuge from the fighting. Hungry, frightened and weakened by sleeplessness and disease, they crossed from the Sudan into Ethiopia and back, with many dying along the way. The survivors are now in camps in Kenya, the Sudan and Uganda
Question 1: What's the main idea,detail 1 and detail 2?
TEXT 2:This extraordinary exodus has its origins in traditional forms of migration. After being initiated into manhood, young adolescent boys in southern Sudan have generally been quite mobile. Organized into small groups of their peers, they would leave home for a period to look after cattle. Or they might head for the towns or cities to go to school or to seek their fortune, before eventually returning home. In addition, at times of stress families all over Africa send their children elsewhere to find safety, food, work and schooling.
Question 2: What's the main idea,detail 1 and detail 2?
TEXT 3:But during the war this process has escalated dramatically. Fearing they would be targeted as potential combatants, many boys left their villages and headed for cities such as Juba and Khartoum. Here they hoped to find work or schooling, though as these cities became saturated with migrants, the boys often had to resort to begging or petty crime.
Question 3: What's the main idea ONLY???
TEXT 4:.Others set out for refugee camps in Ethiopia. Some travelled with friends or relatives, others slipped away on their own at night. Few had any idea of what lay ahead of them. They believed the trek would last only a few days and discovered that they faced a harrowing journey of 6 to 10 weeks. Continually under threat, they would flee for their lives, losing their way in the wilderness. Often they lost everything en route—blankets, sheets, shoes, clothes and pots—to soldiers, swindlers or bandits. Many fell victim to killer diseases. Others were so weakened by hunger and lack of sleep that they could go no further and sat down by the roadside—prey for lions and other animals.
Question 4:What are the Hopes/Expectations and Realities

Sebastian wanted to read the article in his social studies book that he was going to be tested on quickly. His teacher told him he should re-think that idea. Explain to Sebastian how to determine the appropriate reading rate.
Answer:
Studies show that 100 wpm is the minimal reading rate for proper comprehension.
The average reading rate is 200 wpm. He needs to slow his rate down in order to completely understand what he is reading
Explanation:
Studies show that 100 words per minute is the minimal reading rate for proper comprehension. Thus, 100 words per minute should be the appropriate reading rate for Sebastian.
What is reading rate?Reading speed is defined as the number of words read correctly per minute. Reading rate is another term for reading speed. It is part of a larger skill known as reading fluency. This is the ability to read accurately, at a good pace, and with the appropriate expression or intonation.
Aim for a rate of between 250 and 350 words per minute. In comparison, the average college student reads only 230-250 words per minute. To find the reading rate - choose an article and read it for 30 seconds. Then come to a halt and count the number of words read, then double that number.
Therefore, the average reading rate is 200 words per minute but Sebastian needs to read slowly in order to completely understand what he is reading.

Behind the Gates of Hercules;
Before him not the ghost of shores;

For lo! the very stars are gone.
Brave Adm'r'l, speak; what shall I say?"
"Why, say, 'Sail on! sail on! and on!'" "My men grow mutinous day by day;
10 My men grow ghastly, wan and weak."
The stout mate thought of home; a spray
Of salt wave washed his swarthy cheek.
"What shall I say, brave Adm'r'l, say,
If we sight naught but seas at dawn?"
15 "Why, you shall say at break of day:
'Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!'"

Until at last the blanched mate said:

For God from these dread seas is gone.
Now speak, brave Adm'r'l, speak and say"-

Ask yourself questions like: What words capture this image exactly? What is the best word to convey how something looked, or how I felt? Take more time with the second paragraph. Your response should be at least 150 words in total.
