Casey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic Sung in the Year 1888 by Ernest Lawrence Thayer Poetry, 1888

Introduction

Ernest Thayer (1863–1940) was an American poet who published the poem “Casey at the Bat” in The San Francisco Examiner under the pseudonym “Phin.” The poem’s anonymity and association with DeWolf Hopper, who recited it 10,000 times on the vaudeville stage, led to many false claims about its authorship, and only reluctantly did Thayer eventually step forward to claim the poem as his own. By then, it had become firmly imprinted on the American imagination as the quintessential baseball poem, full of hope, drama, bravado, defeat, and humor. Though some readers may be unfamiliar with at bats and innings, everyone can relate to the final sentiment: “there is no joy in Mudville—mighty Casey has struck out.”

Curled at his breast, he sits there while the sun
Stripes the red west
With its last light: the chipmunk
Dives to his rest.

The image of the chipmunk "dive[ing] to his rest" shows that the chipmunk is sluggish and unmotivated.

The description of the sunset describes the coloration of the chipmunk.

The line lengths vary, which suggests the chipmunk's movement: quickly running, then stopping and watching for danger.

I loved my daddy. I loved my brothers too. But in the end it was Mitchell Thomas and I who were most like brothers, with a bond that couldn't be broken. The two of us came into Mississippi together by way of East Texas, and that was when we were still boys, long after we had come to our understanding of each other. Seeing that we were a long way from our Georgia home and both of us being strangers here in Mississippi, the two of us depended on each other and became as family.

Read Zion National Park:

In 1917, Horace Albright visited the canyon created by the Virgin River in southwestern Utah. He was amazed at the beauty of the colorful cliffs. Albright determined that this national monument would become a popular tourist destination. The official name of the monument at that time was Mukuntuweap National Monument. It had been named in honor of the Paiutes who lived in the region. Albright thought that the name was difficult to pronounce and proposed a name change. President Woodrow Wilson renamed the monument Zion National Monument, which became Zion National Park in 1919. The number of people visiting the park increased from approximately 300 in 1914 to 1,814 people in 1919.

Zion National Park is known for its many hiking trails. The shortest trail leads to one of the popular destinations: Weeping Rock, a cliff face with a hanging garden. Over the years, water made its way through the Navajo sandstone of the cliff, traveling through pores and creating canyons. Eventually, the water encountered a layer of rock that was impermeable. The water was unable to continue down, so it traveled horizontally. At Weeping Rock, the water comes through the pores of the sandstone. The amount of water that flows out of the rock can be a trickle or a stream, giving the impression that the rock is crying. Vegetation grows in shaded areas of the cliff with water coming through the rock. As the plants grow out of the rock face, they give the illusion that they are hanging in the air.

In the last century, word spread of Zion National Park's many natural treasures, like the Weeping Rock. Roads, trails, and visitor centers were built. More people traveled to Zion in order to hike, horseback ride, and go canyoneering. The Zion-Mount Carmel Tunnel was constructed by 1930. Visitors still use the tunnel to travel from Zion to the Grand Canyon or Bryce Canyon. Now, park rangers are facing problems created by having too many visitors. Trails and campgrounds are overused and need repairs. Visitors are straying off the trails to create their own, thereby damaging the vegetation. Rangers are considering the best ways to protect this national park and maintain its beauty for future generations.

Select the sentence from the text that explains the cause of Weeping Rock's unusual water flow.

A mutual fund is a group of stocks and bonds. When you purchase a mutual fund, you are pooling your money with that of a bunch of other investors. As a group, you pay an expert to select which stocks and bonds to buy and to manage the fund by reallocating money or buying and selling stock when necessary. Ideally, an expert will do a better job picking stocks and bonds than you will, so your return on investment will be higher. Mutual funds are also a good idea because by spreading your money around, you reduce the impact that a decline in any one investment’s value will have on you overall.

Why might you invest in a mutual fund?

A
if you don’t want to diversify your investments

B
if you want an expert to pick your investments

C
if you want to control your investments by yourself

D
if you want to invest your money only in bonds

You are a part owner, and the technical term for that is “shareholder.” It’s important to do your research and purchase stock in a company that you believe in. Does the company have a good product? Has the company been around for many years? How has the stock done in the past? What is in the future for this company? These questions can help determine whether or not a company is a good investment. Some companies offer their shareholders dividends. A dividend is an amount of money that a company pays its shareholders from its profits. Some companies pay dividends on a regular basis, but it depends on the company.

A
someone who owns stock in a company

Businesses closed and were no longer able to pay their employees. People lost their homes, and they struggled to purchase food in order to survive.

The Song of Wandering Aengus

by William Butler Yeats

I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread;
And when white moths were on the wing,
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
I dropped the berry in a stream
And caught a little silver trout.

When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire a-flame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And someone called me by my name:
It had become a glimmering girl
With apple blossom in her hair
Who called me by my name and ran
And faded through the brightening air.

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done,
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Christopher Columbus was a famous explorer who discovered the New World while searching for a western route to the Indies. Although all other merchants had traveled eastward to the Indies, Columbus was convinced he could reach the Indies by traveling west. He begged the king and queen to give him money, equipment, and supplies for his journey. Although Christopher Columbus did not find what he was looking for, on October 12, 1492, he and his men discovered the New World. The world owes a great debt to the courageous explorations of Christopher Columbus.
