"Oh, good, you're all here," said Pola as she walked into the community theater. She began handing out copies of her script to the assembled actors.
"This is a lot to memorize," remarked Gerhardt, flipping through the pages. "Neville, your character's name is Rhombus Fairchild. Boy, I bet he was picked on as a kid."
"You're Aces—what kind of title is that?" Neville asked.
"The play takes place in the 1920s, Neville," replied Pola irritably. "People used catchphrases like that back then. It means 'You're the best.' "
"If the play takes place in the past, why are the main characters fighting giant evil robots in the third act?" asked Nadezhda. Gerhardt and Neville gasped in surprise and started reading the script with renewed interest.
"Cool! I get to fire a laser gun," bragged Neville.
"Oh, man!" Gerhardt groaned. "My character gets killed at the end of Act III. Death scenes are the worst."
"Quit complaining, everyone," exclaimed Pola. "I had to write this by myself in two days while working a full-time job. It may not be Shakespeare, but it's good enough for community theater. I think we should just do the best we can with what we've got."
"That's a terrible attitude," Nadezhda said. "The proceeds from this play will be donated to charity, and I think we should try our hardest to give people their money's worth. Why don't we all work together to write a new script?"
"Fine!" Pola yelled. "I'll let you guys take over the play, and I'll save my efforts for people with better taste in entertainment." The three actors watched in amazement as Pola stomped out of the theater.
"Whoops," said Nadezhda with an embarrassed smile. "I forgot that she hates for anyone to question her talent as a writer."
"I'm just sad I won't get to wear a jet pack and use phrases like 'You're the bees' knees,' " Neville laughed.
"I thought doing a death scene was bad," said Gerhardt. "If we don't get a script put together by tonight, we'll all be in serious trouble." Nadezhda grabbed a notebook from her purse.
"This will be a snap," she said confidently. "What's a good topic for a play?"
"I know!" declared Gerhardt. "Neville and I will be lawmen sent from the future who try to stop a giant monster from destroying Dubuque, Iowa."
"Well, it is original," Nadezhda replied slowly. "But how would we create a giant monster on our $10 prop budget?"
"Good point," admitted Gerhardt.
"Here's an idea," said Neville. "What if Gerhardt and I play Elvis and Abraham Lincoln, who have been brought back to life by scientists. We use our skills to defend the president, played by Nadezhda, from the cast of the musical Cats, who have been turned into vicious zombies." Neville's voice trailed off as he realized that both Nadezhda and Gerhardt were staring at him with their mouths open.
"That's very ambitious," Nadezhda finally said. "I think it would be a little difficult for three people to perform onstage, though."
"You're probably right," said Neville.
"I hate to say it, but our ideas are terrible," Gerhardt remarked. "What are we going to do?" The three actors dashed off the stage and hurried outside.
"She's over by her car!" exclaimed Nadezhda. "Let's go get her. I'm not too proud to beg; are you guys?"
"No way," replied Gerhardt. "As far as I'm concerned, death scenes are the bees' knees."

Gym has a reputation as most students' least favorite class. From
changing clothes twice in an hour to doing silly drills, the whole thing is
pretty absurd. It makes no sense to insist that all students take gym
classes when everyone knows they are worthless. Today, there is less
time than ever before devoted to regular school subjects like English
and math. Instead of forcing students to spend time running around,
schools should abolish gym and give the time back to academics.

Read the excerpt from "Home Front Diary."

Jimmy Simmons stopped by today to tell me that he had enlisted in the army. He asked me if I would write to him, and I said I would. I told him that I've been writing to my Uncle Arthur and Susan's cousin John for about a year, and as an experienced correspondent I had some advice about all the censorship. "Don't write down any information about your location or the number of soldiers in your unit because the censors will cut all of that away," I said. "In my experience, loose lips not only sink ships, they make letters look like snowflake decorations!” Well, he belly laughed over that one.

How is the author's perspective different from Jimmy's?

Read the excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. What is the tone of the opening passage?

One dollar and eighty-seven cents. That was all. And sixty cents of it was in pennies. Pennies saved one and two at a time by bulldozing the grocer and the vegetable man and the butcher until one's cheeks burned with the silent imputation of parsimony that such close dealing implied. Three times Della counted it. One dollar and eighty- seven cents. And the next day would be Christmas.

There was clearly nothing to do but flop down on the shabby little couch and howl. So Della did it. Which instigates the moral reflection that life is made up of sobs, sniffles, and smiles, with sniffles predominating.

While the mistress of the home is gradually subsiding from the first stage to the second, take a look at the home. A furnished flat at $8 per week. It did not exactly beggar description, but it certainly had that word on the lookout for the mendicancy squad.

In the vestibule below was a letter-box into which no letter would go, and an electric button from which no mortal finger could coax a ring. Also appertaining thereunto was a card bearing the name "Mr. James Dillingham Young."

The "Dillingham" had been flung to the breeze during a former period of prosperity when its possessor was being paid $30 per week. Now, when the income was shrunk to $20, though, they were thinking seriously of contracting to a modest and unassuming D. But whenever Mr. James Dillingham Young came home and reached his flat above he was called "Jim" and greatly hugged by Mrs. James Dillingham Young, already introduced to you as Della. Which is all very good.

A.
dissatisfied
B.
humorous
C.
sarcastic
D.
unhappy

Which sentence is complete?

He saw the doctor and took the medicine.
The cough and the runny nose and sneeze.
Missed school for one week.

Read this student's rough draft.

The holiday weekend driving had been slow, and Myra was cramped in the backseat with her little brothers. At least she had a window seat. She had read for 100 miles, a painfully slow three hours, and she needed a diversion. She looked out the window and watched the green mile markers slowly tick by. She saw signs for the Tri-Cities Beltway and wondered what they might encounter.

What sentence would best add descriptive details to the end of this paragraph?

The Tri-Cities Beltway had been constructed to alleviate traffic for three cities, but the
merge was always problematic.

The car slowed to a snail’s pace, and the line of cars ahead stretched out of sight, with exhaust fumes looming overhead.

Myra reached into the backseat cooler and found a sandwich and a soda her mother had packed.

The Beltway was a direct path back to their town, and Myra’s family had only 35 miles left to travel.
