Answer:

D. "While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

Explanation:

The option selected above shows that the speaker was not expecting to visit, for this reason, he was relaxed to the point of almost napping, which shows that he was not expecting anything to happen. The speaker also shows that the knock on the door happened out of nowhere, which reinforces the idea that he was not expecting anyone to visit him.

Which line from "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” supports Douglass’s claim that the Fourth of July is not a cause worthy of celebration by all?
Fellow Citizens, I am not wanting in respect for the fathers of this republic. The signers of the Declaration of Independence were brave men. They were great men, too great enough to give frame to a great age.
Would to God, both for your sakes and ours, that an affirmative answer could be truthfully returned to these questions! Then would my task be light, and my burden easy and delightful.
Fellow-citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions! whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are, to-day, rendered more intolerable by the jubilee shouts that reach them.
But, I submit, where all is plain there is nothing to be argued. What point in the anti-slavery creed would you have me argue? On what branch of the subject do the people of this country need light?

Reread paragraphs 105-108 of the story. Then answer the multiple-
choice question that follows. First, answer Part A. Then, answer Part B.
From "B. Wordsworth" by V.S. Naipaul
105 One day when I went to see him in his little house, I found him
lying on his little bed. He looked so old and so weak, that I found
myself wanting to cry.
106 He said, "The poem is not going well."
107 He wasn't looking at me. He was looking through the window at
the coconut tree, and he was speaking as though I wasn't there. He
said, "When I was twenty I felt the power within myself." Then, almost
in front of my eyes, I could see his face growing older and more tired.
He said, "But that-that was a long time ago."
108 And then I felt it so keenly, it was as though I had been slapped
by my mother. I could see it clearly on his face. It was there for
everyone to see. Death on the shrinking face.
Part A
Which statement best describes the conflicting perspectives conveyed
in these paragraphs?
A. The creole-speaking narrator is an inexperienced writer who does not
understand his friend's desire to write in colonial British English.
B. The young, relatively privileged narrator is overwhelmed by sadness when
he sees the toll that poverty and age are taking on his friend.
C. The youthful and energetic narrator is disappointed when he finally starts to
understand that his friend is old and infirm.
D. The narrator's history of conflict with his mother has prepared him to deal
with a variety of conflicts with other people.
Part B
What details from the passage best support your answer to Part A?
A. When B. Wordsworth looks at the coconut tree instead of at his friend and
speaks as though his friend is not there, these details suggest that the two
characters have a conflict that they are not able to resolve.
B. The narrator's recollection of his mother slapping his face reminds him that
he can overcome conflict and intense emotions by spending time with his
friend. This is a difficult realization because his friend is sick.
C. The narrator describes the sadness and alarm he feels when he
understands that his friend will soon die. Details about B. Wordsworth's age
and condition suggest that poverty has shortened his life.
D. The narrator has not had any friends who died, so it is challenging for him
to process what is happening. Because he does not know what to say at this

Read the passage from The Haunted Mind by Nathaniel Hawthorne and answer the question that follows.

What a singular moment is the first one, when you have hardly begun to recollect yourself after starting from midnight slumber! By unclosing your eyes so suddenly, you seem to have surprised the personages of your dream in full convocation round your bed, and catch one broad glance at them before they can flit into obscurity. Or, to vary the metaphor, you find yourself, for a single instant, wide awake in that realm of illusions, whither sleep has been the passport, and behold its ghostly inhabitants and wondrous scenery, with a perception of their strangeness, such as you never attain while the dream is undisturbed.

The use of pronoun "you" in the passage indicates that the point of view is __________, and the/an ___________ is addressed.

first person point of view; narrator
second person point of view; reader
third person limited point of view; outside character
third person objective point of view; outside narrator

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which lines supports the theme that grief can become overpowering?

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we,
Of many far wiser than we,
(30) And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
(35) Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride,
(40) In the sepulchre1 there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

A Home Away from Home
When summer finally arrived and eighth grade ended, my thoughts turned to Grandma Rose and her small farm in South Carolina. I couldn't wait to sit with her on the porch and listen to her tell old family stories. Every summer, my parents, my younger brother and sisters, and I drove down to the farm from our apartment in Baltimore. Aunts, uncles, and cousins from other parts of the country joined us there. We all came to spend time together, share memories, and celebrate Grandma Rose's birthday.
I was named Caroline Rose after my Grandma Rose because we shared the same birthday. Grandma Rose referred to us as the "birthday gals," and we had our photograph taken together every year. This year, I was turning 15 and Grandma Rose was turning 84. In addition to having the same name and birthday, we shared other traits as well. "Caroline Rose, you're just as strong-willed as your Grandma Rose," Mama used to say to me in exasperation. I loved Grandma Rose and I wanted to be like her, so I didn't mind.
Daddy called the 12-hour drive to the farm "our pilgrimage," because it was a journey we made every summer to a place we held sacred. Our preparations felt just as sacred as our destination. The morning before the trip, my younger siblings and I pulled open closets and dresser drawers searching for shorts, bathing suits, and matching flip flops, which we packed in garbage bags. "Easier to fit a bunch of squishy garbage bags in the car than four bulky suitcases," Mama reasoned.
In the late afternoon we ate a supper of odds and ends—whatever was in the fridge that needed to be eaten before we left for two weeks: cold ham and macaroni salad, peanut butter and jelly on toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. It was always a surprise to see what Mama came up with for our pre-trip dinner.
Before an extra early bedtime, we fixed up the car so my brother and sisters and I would be comfortable during the long drive. We spread quilts on the seats and packed novels, coloring books, comic books, chewing gum, playing cards, and craft projects to keep ourselves busy. Then we went to bed with our clothes on. When our parents woke us up at three a.m., we shuffled into the car with our bed pillows and fell back asleep as Daddy began the long drive south.
Twelve hours later, we pulled up in front of Grandma Rose's old white house and burst out of the car. Many relatives had already arrived. Aunts and uncles squeezed the children, but we cousins greeted each other shyly.
It was my private custom to walk through the house and make sure everything was just as I remembered it—same pictures of birds and flowers hanging on the dining room wall, same green-and-yellow striped armchairs in the living room, same squeaky screened door leading out to the porch. In the kitchen, I'd stop to breathe in the house's familiar smells. Being back in this house made me feel like a long-lost book that had finally been returned to its owner and put back on the shelf where it belonged.
For the cousins, the annual visit was a way of measuring our growth, both physical and emotional. How much taller were we this summer? Which barn shelf could we reach? What would we be allowed to do this summer, now that we were a year older? The group of older cousins, which included me, talked about who had boyfriends or girlfriends. Last year, I'd turned bright red when this topic came up. This summer I did too, but now I had my boyfriend, Cash, to talk about.
I didn't realize then that the grown-ups were measuring themselves, too, but they used different standards: Who had new babies, grandbabies, or children starting high school or college? Who was ready to retire? How bad was the arthritis?
After dinner that first night, Grandma Rose and I sat down together on the porch to look through our birthday book—the little book that held our birthday photos. There were plenty of empty pages, and I wanted Grandma Rose and me to fill them up with years and years of birthday pictures. It was another kind of measuring stick.
Grandma Rose and I sat quietly for a while, just the two of us, just as I'd hoped we would. I was so grateful to be back on the farm—a place full of people I'd known and loved my whole life, with Grandma Rose at the center of our family universe.

All members of the animal kingdom need sleep to help their brains function properly. The brain needs a minimum number of hours to rest and
organize itself. The number of hours depends on age. For example, human babies need an average of 14 to 16 hours of rest daily, while adults
can function on about 6 to 8 hours. Scientists are not completely sure what the brain does during sleep periods, but they do know that the brain
sorts and stores information and replaces chemicals when a person sleeps.
