Read the excerpt from the time traveler’s guide to elizabethan england. if you are hungry, you might feel inclined to turn to poaching. but be careful: this is risky. taking livestock is theft, and theft is a felony which carries the death sentence. killing wild animals that live on another man’s land is also against the law; even taking a single fish from a river can result in a fine of a shilling or more. it is unlikely that you will be hanged for taking a wild animal such as a rabbit; but, even so, you will get a fine amounting to three times the value of the animal as well as three months in prison, and you will have to enter into a bond to guarantee your good behavior in the future; a second offense will be treated more harshly. if a gamekeeper attacks you and you defend yourself, you can be charged with assault. you may find yourself on the gallows if you injure him. what is the author’s purpose in this excerpt?

Read this excerpt from through the looking-glass by lewis carroll. "you might make a joke on that,” said the little voice close to her ear: "something about ‘you would if you could,’ you know.” "don't tease so,” said alice, looking about in vain to see where the voice came from; "if you're so anxious to have a joke made, why don't you make one yourself? ” the little voice sighed deeply: it was very unhappy, evidently, and alice would have said something pitying to comfort it, "if it would only sigh like other people! ” she thought. but this was such a wonderfully small sigh, that she wouldn't have heard it at all, if it hadn't come quite close to her ear. the consequence of this was that it tickled her ear very much, and quite took off her thoughts from the unhappiness of the poor little creature. what question should a reader ask to clarify what is happening in the story? who or what is the voice speaking to alice? when will alice attempt to share a joke? what secret will alice share with the new character? why do whispers tickle the listener?
