Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time, as she went down, to look about her. First, she tried to make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs. She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed. It was labeled "ORANGE MARMALADE," but, to her great disappointment, it was empty; she did not like to drop the jar, so managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it.

How has blueberry growing changed over the years?

Blueberries

The blueberry is one of North America's native fruits. The continent produces 90 percent of the world's blueberries. Harvest time runs from mid-April to the beginning of October. July is the height of the season. In the United States, it is known as National Blueberry Month.

Many tasty dishes can be made from blueberries, including pies, breads, jellies, and jams. Top your morning cereal with some fresh blueberries. Or serve them by themselves or mixed with other fruit and pour on cream, milk, or yogurt. They are wonderful to eat fresh off the stem too.

History of the Blueberry

American Indians showed early settlers where to find wild blueberries. They may have brought a dessert called sautauthig to the first Thanksgiving feast in the 1600s. This pudding is made from dried blueberries, cracked corn, and water.

In the early 1900s, Elizabeth White and Dr. Frederick Coville began to farm wild highbush blueberries. Later, plant breeders developed the new kinds of larger, hardy berries that you see in grocery stores. You can still find wild blueberries, often in hilly or mountainous areas.

Blueberry Farms Today

Today, you can pick your own blueberries at self-pick farms. Some of them even let you eat berries while you pick.

Read this excerpt from "Why Are They Called Black Holes?"

Within a circular boundary of about fifty miles from the black hole center, gravity is so strong that massless light cannot escape its pull. This boundary is called the "theoretical event horizon." Imagine observing a black hole from galaxies away. Light can be seen around the event horizon but not within it. The universe is filled with dim light drifting all around, but absolutely no light can be seen inside a circular event horizon. Therefore, the area inside is called a "black hole."

Based on this excerpt, which conclusion is most likely true about black holes?

Even though there is light inside a black hole, it is not visible.
Even though a black hole has gravity, there is nothing inside a black hole.
A black hole can only be observed or detected at a short distance.
A black hole only releases light that appears black to the eyes.

Sonic Boom



I'm sitting in the living room

When, up above, the Thump of Doom

Resounds. Relax. It's sonic boom.



The ceiling shudders at the clap,

The mirrors tilt, the rafters snap,

And Baby wakens from his nap.



"Hush, babe. Some pilot we equip,

Giving the speed of sound the slip,

Has cracked the air like a penny whip."



Our world is far from frightening; I

no longer strain to read the sky

Where moving fingers (jet planes) fly.

Our world seems much too tame to die.



And if it does, with one more pop,

I shan't look up to see it drop.

by John Updike

Can someone explain the meaning of this quote: "It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unhappy, it was confusion and misunderstanding; above all, it was the failure to grasp the simple truth that other people are as real as you. And only in a story could you enter these different minds and show how they had an equal value. That was the only moral a story need have." -Atonement Ian Mcewan

Read the passage.

In the late 1800s, long-distance communication was difficult. Though there was a postal service, it was slow and unreliable. Letters could take many weeks or even months to travel cross country. Quickly reaching a faraway loved one in an emergency was only possible via the electric telegraph, which was not available to everyone. In contrast, today Americans communicate freely, inexpensively, and frequently over all distances with cell phones and computers. Friends and family, no matter how distant, are only a push of a button away.

Which word or phrase makes the transition to a different idea?

in the late
quickly
in contrast
friends and family
