My father drank. He drank as a gut-punched boxer gasps for breath, as a starving dog
gobbles food-compulsively, secretly, in pain, and trembling. I use the past tense not
because he ever quit drinking but because he quit living. That is how the story ends
for my father, age sixty-four, heart bursting, body cooling and forsaken on the
linoleum floor of my brother's trailer.

Read this excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered.

Then I walked into Mr. and Mrs. Frank's bedroom. On the floor, amidst the chaos of papers and books, my eye lit on the little red-orange checkered, cloth-bound diary that Anne had received from her father on her thirteenth birthday. I pointed it out to Elli. Obeying my gesture, she leaned down and picked it up for me, putting it into my hands. I remembered how happy Anne had been to receive this little book to write her private thoughts in. I knew how precious her diary was to Anne. My eyes scanned the rubble for more of Anne's writings, and I saw the old accounting books and many more writing papers that Elli and I had given to her when she had run out of pages in the checkered diary. Elli was still very scared, and looked to me for direction. I told Elli, "Help me pick up all Anne's writings."

Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster."

James Jay's invisible ink did not become visible by heating. As he described it, his ink "would elude the generally known means of detection, and yet could be rendered visible by a suitable counterpart." Jay's invisible ink consisted of two chemicals. An agent used one chemical to write an invisible message. To read the message, the reader had to brush a second chemical on the paper; that chemical made the message visible. The two-bottle system, supplied by Jay, gave Washington the secure form of writing that he wanted.

Which statement includes explicit information from the excerpt?

Washington only knew about invisible ink that required heating.

Monseigneur was in his inner room, his sanctuary of sanctuaries, the Holiest of Holiests to the crowd of worshippers in the suite of rooms without. Monseigneur was about to take his chocolate. Monseigneur could swallow a great many things with ease and was by some few sullen minds supposed to be rather rapidly swallowing France, but, his morning's chocolate could not so much as get into the throat of Monseigneur, without the aid of four strong men besides the Cook.

Yes, it took four men, all four ablaze with gorgeous decoration, and the Chief of them unable to exist with fewer than two gold watches in his pocket, emulative of the noble and chaste fashion set by Monseigneur, to conduct the happy chocolate to Monseigneur's lips. One lacquey carried the chocolate-pot into the sacred presence; a second, milled and frothed the chocolate with the little instrument he bore for that function; a third, presented the favoured napkin; a fourth (he of the two gold watches), poured the chocolate out. It was impossible for Monseigneur to dispense with one of these attendants on the chocolate and hold his high place under the admiring Heavens. Deep would have been the blot upon his escutcheon if his chocolate had been ignobly waited on by only three men.

This is a news article. Which of the following is an option?

Al Smith, the owner of Smith Construction, has been sued by
two former clients. The two claim that Smith took money for
work he didn't complete. He left jobs half finished, and the jobs
he did finish failed to meet code requirements.
Smith is a well-respected citizen of Lawndale. He has never
been sued before. "The charges against me are false." Smith
said. "I did all the work I was paid for. And I did it well. The two
clients changed their building plans after I had already started
work on their home. I told them that the added work and
materials would cost extra, but they refused to pay."
The two clients, John and Bev Crown, admit they changed the
plans. But they believe Smith should refund their money. "We
signed a contract that allowed us to make changes to our plans.
Al Smith didn't hold up his end of the bargain. He owes us a full
refund."
A court date has been set for Tuesday.

What type of organizational structure might this be? How do you know?
You may think it's bad to forget your homework, but what if you forgot who you were? Amnesia is a condition
where a person loses some of their memories, like details about their personal identity, but still may remember
how to do things, like play the piano. One type of Amnesia is called post-traumatic amnesia. Posttraumatic
amnesia is usually due to a head injury (like a serious fall or knock on the head). The degree of memory loss
may be related to the force of the injury. A simple whiplash may cause a person to forget the moments before
the accident, but a more severe injury may cause a greater loss. For example, the victim may not remember
who certain people are or may forget details about their own identities.

Very often, people who enter an elevator will face the direction that the other people are already facing. Your task is to ride an elevator for several floors eight times. Enter the elevator and stand the opposite direction of how the other people are standing. Take note of what happens. Do the present people turn and face in the direction you stand? Do the people who load onto the elevator after you choose to stand in the direction you stand? Exit the elevator after traveling a few floors. Then get ready to repeat the process seven more times. Print out the data collection sheet and keep a pencil handy but out of sight. Each time you exit the elevator, take a minute to record any conforming behavior. Were you able to influence the direction that people stood when they entered the elevator? (Yes/No). Did people change their standing direction while already in the elevator? (Yes/No) Write a few paragraphs describing your elevator experience. Provide details for each of your eight trials. Describe whether or not you experienced people conforming while riding the elevator. What's your opinion of this?
