Read the stanzas from "The Battle of Blenheim" by Robert Southey.

“With fire and sword the country round
Was wasted far and wide,
And many a childing mother then,
And new-born baby died;
But things like that, you know, must be
At every famous victory.

“They say it was a shocking sight
After the field was won;
For many thousand bodies here
Lay rotting in the sun;
But things like that, you know, must be
After a famous victory."

Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day? (Sonnet 18)
by William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold
complexion dimmid;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest,
Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Ring–tailed lemurs are unique because of their appearance and their social activity. First, ring–tailed lemurs are just one of over 100 different species of lemur, but they are easily recognizable because of their long, black and white ringed tails and shocking stare. They are small, weighing only 5 to 8 pounds, but their large eyes and intense stare contribute to their name, which means "ghost" in Latin.

They congregate in groups called troops of about 17 animals. Each troop is presided over by a dominant, large female ring–tailed lemur. Also, ring–tailed lemurs have glands in their wrists that can release a strong odor into the air to repel predators and also to fight with one another. The male ring–tails will "stink fight" with one another by releasing their odors until one slinks away.

Sample Response: Amy Tan uses details to show that her family's meal was embarrassing. Her description of her father burping uses imagery because the reader can imagine hearing her father's burp. The guests are astonished, which means they are shocked, because this custom is different. Robert's red face is another description that helps the reader picture him being embarrassed as well. The minister's burp is quiet, and he seems embarrassed by the custom too. Amy says this moment made her silent for the rest of the night, which shows that she is embarrassed.

Northside Manufacturing Fire Evacuation Guide Fire, an ever-present hazard in Australia, causes approximately 100 fatalities and over 3,000 injuries per annum. Significant resources are allocated to mitigate the risk. Our company is committed to ensuring that employees, visitors and contractors are kept as safe as possible whilst at any premises owned or under the control of the organisation. With this in mind, all staff should familiarise themselves with the locations of the fire alarms, fire call points, fire exits, fire assembly areas and fire tally boards. On discovering a fire, you should operate the nearest alarm, evacuate the building as described below and report the nature and location of the fire to the company’s fire warden. On hearing the fire alarm, you should:Quickly and calmly evacuate to the nearest assembly area.
Where there is anyone with mobility impairments, utilise the evacuation chair (if trained in its use) or escort them to a “temporary refuge point” i.e. stairwell or corridors protected by 30 minute fire doors and remain with them if appropriate.
Members of staff: If you are near the tally board AND the visitor sign-in sheet, you must pick up both, check the rooms shown on the tally board as you exit and close all doors behind you. Note the location of anyone with mobility impairment who has been escorted to a “temporary refuge point”. If the tally board/visitor sign-in sheet has already been collected, go straight to the assembly area.
If you have collected the tally board and visitor sign-in sheet and checked the rooms as you left the building, you must report with the tally board and visitor sign-in sheet to the company’s Fire Warden without delay, informing him/her of the location of any one with mobility impairments waiting in a “safe area”.
If you have looked for a tally board that you know is missing from its usual location, then report this to the company’s Fire Warden.
Fire wardens should assume their designated duties. Ensure all staff members and visitors/contractors are accounted for.
DO NOT attempt to fight a fire unless you have been trained to and it is safe to do so.
DO NOT leave the site unless instructed to do so.
Why do you think the visitor sign-in sheet needs to be taken?

- it is part of the fire evacuation procedure.
- the visitor sign in sheet helps account for evacuated visitors accurately.
- the visitors sign in sheet can help to locate people.
- it assists the fire warden to evacuate people more quickly

Draft:
Robert Frost, an American poet who lived from 1874–1963, is most well known for his depictions of everyday people doing normal things and facing life–changing decisions. Frost, who lived most of his life in rural settings, wrote many poems about nature and about the American landscape.
While he was first published in a weekly literary magazine in 1894, Frost's career had a slow start because many American publishers turned him down early in his career. His luck changed, though, after he lived in England for several years starting in 1912. When he was there, many publishers embraced his work and, because of that, he was popular when he returned to the U.S. when World War I broke out. Publishers that had previously turned him down welcomed him back and his career hit its stride.
Frost's career earned him many awards and honors throughout his lifetime.
