Most birds flap their wings up and down to fly, but the hummingbird moves its wings forward
and backward very rapidly in a figure eight pattern. This allows the hummingbird to hover in
position. They can also fly upside down and move about very rapidly. Other birds have to push off
with their feet to begin flying and work their ways up to their top speeds. The hummingbird can
both start flying at maximum speed and stop flying instantaneously. Once you've seen a
hummingbird in flight, it's unlikely that you'll mistake them for another bird.
• What is the best title?
a.
Hummingbirds: a unique bird that allows for Unique flight
b. Hummingbirds. just another bird
C. Hummingbirds. The bird that saved all others
d. Hummingbirds can fly backwards

Read the following passage: he roamed from chamber to chamber with hurried, unequal, and objectless step. the pallor of his countenance had assumed, if possible, a more ghastly hue— but the luminousness of his eye had utterly gone out. the once occasional huskiness of his tone was heard no more; and a tremulous quaver, as if of extreme terror, habitually characterized his utterance. there were times, indeed, when i thought his unceasingly agitated mind was laboring with some oppressive secret, to divulge which he struggled for the necessary courage. which of the above ideas might be considered foreshadowing? he is wandering all over the chamber his skin tone is really pale his voice is quivering the narrator thinks he is laboring with an oppressive secret
