Read the excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis.”

The lightning was near now, and from fear he walked so close behind me he kept stepping on my heels. The faster I walked, the faster he walked, so I began to run. The rain was coming, roaring through the pines, and then, like a bursting Roman candle, a gum tree ahead of us was shattered by a bolt of lightning. When the deafening peal of thunder had died, and in the moment before the rain arrived, I heard Doodle, who had fallen behind, cry out, “Brother, Brother, don’t leave me! Don’t leave me!”

The imagery in this excerpt most reflects

the sense of sight to emphasize the fear that Doodle was feeling.
the sense of sight to emphasize how difficult it was for the boys to see.
the sense of sound to emphasize the frustration of the narrator.
the sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of the storm.

Answer: The imagery in this excerpt most reflects the sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of the storm. The author does this by using phrases such as "roaring through the pines", "deafening peel of thunder", etc. This amplification of the storm is effective, because it intensifies the moment and brings the reader into the narrator's fear.

Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.

The shop seemed to be full of all manner of curious things—but the oddest part of it all was, that whenever she looked hard at any shelf, to make out exactly what it had on it, that particular shelf was always quite empty: though the others round it were crowded as full as they could hold.

"Things flow about so here!” she said at last in a plaintive tone, after she had spent a minute or so in vainly pursuing a large bright thing, that looked sometimes like a doll and sometimes like a work-box, and was always in the shelf next above the one she was looking at. "And this one is the most provoking of all—but I'll tell you what—” she added, as a sudden thought struck her, "I'll follow it up to the very top shelf of all. It'll puzzle it to go through the ceiling, I expect!”

Using the evidence below, which of the following instances of elaboration does the best job of explaining why the evidence supports that video games cause negative health impacts related to physical strain.

Evidence: Dr. Matthew Edlund, director of the Center for Circadian Medicine and author of "The Power of Rest" says, "Teens need adequate deep sleep and REM sleep to rebuild long-term memory for learning, focus attention for driving and maintain health and fight obesity ... They're so connected to their machines that they're treating themselves as though they don't need any rest" (Ortiz Healy).

Question 3 options:

Because of this tendency for teens to forgo sleep in order to play video games, the physical strain placed on the body by the lack of sleep results in negative health impacts.


Sleep is good, and teens need to be sure to get enough of it.


Negative health impacts due to physical strain result when teens decide not to sleep in order to play video games.


This proves that video games cause negative health impacts.
