Audrey and James didn’t go to the mass meeting either. They were in jail.

Audrey was taken to a large dayroom. She didn’t know anyone, and everyone was older. Dinner was unappetizing. "They gave us grits . . .” she said. "They were horrible—all soupy, no salt.” That night, she slept on a bunk bed "on one mattress, with one sheet,” and no covers.

Blake Ebers is this summer's hottest breakout star, and fans have been
dying to learn more about their favorite square-jawed action hero.
Normally reserved, Ebers opened up about his background to our
reporter. Here's what we learned: Blake Ebers was born on a small
farm outside Boise, Idaho, and is the oldest of five children. When he
turned 14, he began practicing martial arts, a skill that shows up often
in his acting. His big break came when a casting agent saw him
compete at a national martial arts tournament. After arriving in
Hollywood, he acted in 17 car insurance commercials before being
cast in a feature film. If you're a Blake-o-maniac, as his fans call
themselves, you're probably already looking forward to the sequel he's
now busy shooting.

Read the following excerpt from a bigger passage.

from President Lyndon B. Johnson’s Special Message to the Congress: The American Promise March 15, 1965

Although the Fifteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteed African Americans the right to vote in 1870, most were still barred from voting almost a century later by local regulations and practices. On March 15, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson delivered this speech urging the U.S. Congress to pass the Voting Rights Act, which would outlaw all such barriers.

At times history and fate meet at a single time in a single place to shape a turning point in man’s unending search for freedom. So it was at Lexington and Concord. So it was a century ago at Appomattox. So it was last week in Selma, Alabama. There, long-suffering men and women peacefully protested the denial of their rights as Americans. Many were brutally assaulted. One good man, a man of God, was killed.

There is no cause for pride in what has happened in Selma. There is no cause for self-satisfaction in the long denial of equal rights of millions of Americans. But there is cause for hope and for faith in our democracy in what is happening here tonight. For the cries of pain and the hymns and protests of oppressed people have summoned into convocation all the majesty of this great Government—the Government of the greatest Nation on earth. Our mission is at once the oldest and the most basic of this country: to right wrong, to do justice, to serve man.

Wednesday I will send to Congress a law designed to eliminate illegal barriers to the right to vote. . . . This bill will strike down restrictions4 to voting in all elections—Federal, State, and local—which have been used to deny Negroes the right to vote. . . .

So I say to all of you here, and to all in the Nation tonight, that those who appeal to you to hold on to the past do so at the cost of denying you your future. This great, rich, restless country can offer opportunity and education and hope to all: black and white, North and South, sharecropper and city dweller. These are the enemies: poverty, ignorance, disease. They are the enemies and not our fellow man, not our neighbor. And these enemies too, poverty, disease and ignorance, we shall overcome. . .

Which of these statements best describes the problem Johnson is trying to address with this speech.
A) African Americans lack the right to vote.

B) Not enough people understand the importance of what happened at Lexington, Concord, and Appotmattox

C) Poor whites have been held back by bigotry

D) The duty of civil rights is a heavy burden for Americans

The Truth About Diaries
Marie Devers
My brother bugs me all the time about my Diary. 1
He wants to know what sisters write in total secrecy.2

I tell him that my Diary is boring as a textbook, 3
but only so he doesn’t try to take a sneaky look. 4

The truth is that my Diary’s like a novel from the store 5
where I’m the leading lady whom the characters adore.6

It’s amazing, how this parchment documents each thing I do: 7
my nightmares, observations, and my love for peach shampoo 8

I explain all my misfortunes in a sister’s constitution, 9
where I outline all my problems and devise my own solutions. 10

What’s unexpected are my words on sibling rivalry11
in spite of how I act, my brother means the world to me. 12

That’s one fact that stays under lock and combination; 13
How embarrassed I would be, if he knew my admiration. 14
