for twenty years, so I could write this poem for all of us today.

"not enough"

by Cayla Cooper



im not a girl

that should be

left alone with

her thoughts



Because I am

most in likely capable

of holding my entire

converstation with myself,



and by conversations i

mean the debates I have

with myself



and by debates I mean

the thoughts that im not

good enough, pretty enough-

im just...not enough,



am I the only one?

is there more people

out there think the same?

or is it just me

and my thoughts?



Maybe if I knew my worth

I wouldnt be stuck

here having a conversation

with myself, debating weather

or not I am good enough...



but who cares?

im just the girl that

is left alone

with her thoughts


is this good? free points just give me feed back

Christopher Reeve was born on September 25, 1952, in New York City. His mother was a journalist, and his father was a professor. As a kid he played sports, did well in school, and liked acting. His passion for acting goes back to playing with his brother when they were little. Reeve acted in his first play at the age of nine. After attending college, taking acting classes, and acting in many plays and movies, Reeve landed his biggest role. In 1978, he played the title role in Superman. He received very positive reviews for his performance and starred as Superman in all the sequels. Reeve was soon acting as the lead role in dozens of movies after Superman. Once well-known, Reeve used his celebrity status for good causes, such as visiting very sick children through the Make-A-Wish foundation. He was also a track and field coach at the Special Olympics.

Besides acting, Reeve was also a licensed pilot and liked horseback riding. He learned to ride horses for a movie role, and he continued riding in his free time. Unfortunately, while riding one day in 1995, Reeve fell from his horse and became paralyzed from the neck down. Being confined to a wheelchair did not hold back Reeve from being socially active, and after many surgeries and rehabilitation, he decided to dedicate his life to helping people with spinal-cord injuries. He created the Christopher Reeve Foundation, which supports the improvement of the lives of people with disabilities and helps fund research to find a cure for paralysis. He was also politically active, working with senators to make sure that people with disabilities were treated fairly in the workplace. Reeve received many awards for his dedication to public service. He also wrote two books about his experiences, and a documentary was made about his life. Reeve passed away in 2004, but his legacy lives on today. He touched the lives of many people and showed us what it means to overcome extreme odds by never giving up.

Which fact would be most appropriate to include in a yearbook page about Reeve?

Reeve created a foundation to help people with disabilities.
Reeve spent time working with senators.
Reeve learned to ride horses for a role in a movie.
Reeve enjoyed playing with his brother when they were little.

Enzo read this passage from "The Smithville Gazette: Neighborhood Thief Strikes Again.”

Another episode in the recent spate of neighborhood thefts occurred on Saturday at Ferguson’s department store. Several pieces of jewelry were taken at approximately 12:30 in the afternoon. Mrs. Jane Dickson, the employee working the jewelry counter reported that she did not initially see the theft, but realized shortly before 1 p.m. that several necklaces were missing from inside the jewelry case, which she had accidentally left unlocked while moving away to help another customer.

You have read "Flying Without Wings," in which the author describes different animals, other than birds, that can fly. Write an essay analyzing how the author develops and refines the central idea of the text. Use evidence from the text to support your response.

As I write, there is a curious little brown-eyed creature darting around about me in the trees. Now, spread out like a parachute, it springs in the air, coming down lightly, only to dart to some other elevation, thence to repeat its antics again and again.

2
As you must by this time suspect, this creature is a flying squirrel—one of the familiar examples of a large number of animals that can move through the air without wings. If we closely examine this pretty little creature, we find that between the fore and hind legs there is an expansion of the skin, which, when the legs are spread out, offers a decided resistance to the air and buoys the animal up exactly as though it carried a parachute. When it is in midair, notice how careful it is to hold its feet and hands out as far as possible, to catch all the air it can. If we look closely, we shall find attached to each of the hands delicate bones, which, when the squirrel is in flight, act as booms for the curious sail in front.

3
But it is in the woods, in their native haunts, that the beautiful animals make their most wonderful leaps. From the tops of the tallest trees they launch themselves fearlessly into the air, coming down with a graceful swoop from a hundred feet or more; then, by a movement of the head, change their course to an upward one, they rise ten or twelve feet, and finally alight upon the tree of their choice. They immediately scramble to the top to soar away into the air, thus traveling through the woods from tree to tree much faster than you can follow them. How alike they are to birds, building nests for their young, and moving through the air with almost equal freedom!

4
One of the most curious of this family is the sugar squirrel—a beautiful creature, with large, curling ears of a delicate ash color above and white beneath. Like many squirrels, it is a nocturnal or night animal, lying concealed in its nest in some hollow tree until the sun disappears, when it comes out, and spends the night in wonderful leaps from tree to tree, in search of food and perhaps amusement. When descending from a great height, it seems as though they must inevitably dash headlong against the ground, so precipitate is their flight, but this never happens. That they are able to change the direction of their flight while in midair seems a very natural and reasonable supposition, though only on one occasion has the accomplishment of this feat been observed.

5
In the forests of the islands constituting the Indian Archipelago is found a curious flying animal that resembles the lemur and the bat. The natives call it the colugo, and also the “flying fox.” Like bats, these animals sleep in the daytime, hanging from the limbs and branches of trees, head downward, but as evening comes on, they sail forth, often doing great harm to the fruit on the neighboring plantations. In some parts of Java they are so numerous that it is found necessary to protect the fruit trees with huge nets. The extent of their flight through the air is something astonishing. They sometimes drop to the ground and hop along with a shuffling kind of leap, but if they are alarmed, they spring to the nearest tree and in a moment reach its top by a series of bounds. Out upon the branches they dart, and with a rush are off into space. Sailing through the air like some great bird, down they go obliquely, swift as an arrow, a hundred and fifty feet or more, rising again in a graceful curve and alighting safely on a distant tree. In these great leaps they carry their young, which cling to them, or sometimes follow them in their headlong flight, uttering hoarse and piercing cries. The colugos live almost exclusively on fruit, preferring plantains and the young and tender leaves of the cocoa-palm. These flying lemurs are perfectly harmless. They have lovely dark eyes and very intelligent and knowing faces.

6
So, the next time you are out in the woods, look closely at the animal flying overhead. You may be surprised at what you see.

Read the passage and answer the question.
[1]Nothing that comes from the desert expresses its extremes better than the unhappy growth of the
tree yuccas. Tormented, thin forests of it stalk drearily in the high mesas, particularly in that
triangular slip that fans out eastward from the meeting of the Sierras and coastwise hills. The
yucca bristles with bayonet-pointed leaves, dull green, growing shaggy with age like an old
[5] man's tangled gray beard, tipped with panicles of foul, greenish blooms. After its death, which is
slow, the ghostly hollow network of its woody skeleton, with hardly power to rot, makes even
the moonlight fearful. But it isn't always this way. Before the yucca has come to flower, while
yet its bloom is a luxurious, creamy, cone-shaped bud of the size of a small cabbage, full of
sugary sap, the Indians twist it deftly out of its fence of daggers and roast the prize for their
[10] own delectation.
Why does the author use the words "ghostly hollow" and "woody skeleton" to describe the yucca tree (line 6)?
To communicate the plant's extraordinary beauty
To emphasize the danger of the plant's leaves
To highlight the plant's frightening appearance
To reveal the author's preoccupation with death
