Read the excerpt below and answer the question. One morning as he lay stretched out on the sand, watching the women coming out of the water, a little foot had struck him by its neatness and daintiness. He raised his eyes and was delighted with the whole person, although in fact he could see nothing but the ankles and the head emerging from a flannel bathrobe carefully held closed. He was supposed to be sensual and a fast liver. It was therefore by the mere grace of the form that he was at first captured. Then he was held by the charm of the young girl's sweet mind, so simple and good, as fresh as her cheeks and lips. What conclusion can NOT be drawn about the theme in the excerpt above from "The Wedding Gift"? It concerns the importance of time and place. It concerns lust versus love. It concerns reputation. It concerns desire.

Match each detail from the passage with the statement that best explains how it develops the character of Simon Wheeler in
the cultural setting.
"dozing comfortably by the stove of the
run-down tavem in the decayed mining camp
adapted from The Celebrated jumping Frog of Calaveras Cou
by Mark Twain
I found Simon Wheeler dozing comfortably by the stove of the
run-down tavern in the decayed mining camp of Angel's. I
noticed he was fat and bald-headed and had a gentle, simple
expression on his calm face. He stood up and said good day to
me. I told him that a friend of mine had asked me to inquire
about a dear companion of his from boyhood named Leonidas
W. Smiley-Reverend LeonidasW. Smiley. He was a young
minister who supposedly was living at one time at Angel's
Camp. I added that if Mr. Wheeler could tell me anything about
this Reverend Leonidas W. Smiley, I would be most grateful.
Simon Wheeler backed me into a comer and trapped me
there with his chair. Then he sat down and reeled off a
monotonous story. He never smiled; he never frowned. He
never changed his volce from the gentle-flowing tone in which
he began his first sentence. He never gave the slightest hint of
enthusiasm. But all through the endless narrative he stayed
Impressively earnest and sincere. This showed me that, far
from thinking there was anything ridiculous or funny about his
story, he thought it was a really important matter. He admired
the heroes of the story as men of great genius. I let him go on in
his own way and never interrupted him once.
"backed me into a corner and trapped me
there with his chair
"admired the heroes of the story as men of
"
great genius
This detall reveals that the setting
provides
Simon Wheeler with plenty of free
time

Rewrite this passage as old information begins each sentence and new information follows the old.
Two aims-the recovery of the American economy and the modernization of America into a
military power-were in the president's mind when he assumed office. The drop in
unemployment figures and inflation, and the increase in the GNP testifies to his success in the
first. But our increase in involvement in international conflict without any clear set of political
goals indicates less success with the second. Nevertheless, increases in the military budget and a good deal of saber rattling pleased the American voter.
