Read the passage from a doll’s house.

nora: but it was absolutely necessary that he should not know! my goodness, can't you understand that? it was necessary he should have no idea what a dangerous condition he was in. it was to me that the doctors came and said that his life was in danger, and that the only thing to save him was to live in the south. do you suppose i didn't try, first of all, to get what i wanted as if it were for myself? i told him how much i should love to travel abroad like other young wives; i tried tears and entreaties with him; i told him that he ought to remember the condition i was in, and that he ought to be kind and indulgent to me; i even hinted that he might raise a loan. that nearly made him angry, christine. he said i was thoughtless, and that it was his duty as my husband not to indulge me in my whims and caprices—as i believe he called them. very well, i thought, you must be saved—and that was how i came to devise a way out of the difficulty—

mrs. linde: and did your husband never get to know from your father that the money had not come from him?

nora: no, never. papa died just at that time. i had meant to let him into the secret and beg him never to reveal it. but he was so ill then—alas, there never was any need to tell him.

mrs. linde: and since then have you never told your secret to your husband?

nora: good heavens, no! how could you think so? a man who has such strong opinions about these things! and besides, how painful and humiliating it would be for torvald, with his manly independence, to know that he owed me anything! it would upset our mutual relations altogether; our beautiful happy home would no longer be what it is now.

1. “no idea what a dangerous condition he was in”
2. “how i came to devise a way out of the difficulty”

Read this passage: many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes. but plastic is not very strong. it must be fused with glass or steel for strength. it is also not very durable. even the strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. the biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not decompose. while plastic can be recycled, doing so is tedious and difficult. while it may be more expensive and difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger building material with far greater tensile strength. it conducts electricity because it is metal. best of all, aluminum is very easy to recycle. even if it is thrown away, it decomposes much more quickly than most manufacturing materials. how does the compare-and-contrast organizational pattern of the passage support the author's purpose? a. the passage gradually leads up to the point about decomposition to inform the reader about the importance of recycling plastics. b. the passage lists the advantages and disadvantages of each material to make a case for the use of plastic and not aluminum in containers. c. the passage begins with a description of plastic's problems in order to call attention to the good qualities of aluminum. d. the passage shows the superiority of aluminum in order to make a case for the production of stronger plastics.

Have you ever thought you understood a person based on a story that you have heard about them? have you ever guessed about a person's personal life because of the clothes they wore? or, have you judged a person because of their friends? although classifying people in this way is typically discouraged, authors deliberately use your preconceived ideas to you form an opinion about the character or to at least have a better understanding. can you think of a time that you made a character call about someone based on external aspects? were you correct, or incorrect? has anyone ever made an incorrect assessment of you based on external aspects? write two paragraphs about it in your journal.

Which excerpt from the war of the worldseffectively reveals how the author relates the climax of the narrative through the narrator's thoughts? the war of the worldsall this had happened with such swiftness that i had stood motionless, dumbfounded and dazzled by the flashes of light. had that death swept through a full circle, it must inevitably have slain me in my surprise. but it passed and spared me, and left the night about me suddenly dark and unfamiliar.and then, with a renewed horror, i saw a round, black object bobbing up and down on the edge of the pit. it was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun.at that time it was quite clear in my own mind that the thing had come from the planet mars, but i judged it improbable that it contained any living creature. i thought the unscrewing might be automatic.my mind ran fancifully on the possibilities of its containing manuscript, on the difficulties in translation that might arise, whether we should find coins and models in it, and so forth. yet it was a little too large for assurance on this idea. i felt an impatience to see it opened.
