1.) Leah read these two reviews of the same book:

1) Long Decade Lost tells the story of a returning war veteran and his struggle to adapt to civilian life. The book’s structure includes out-of-order events and constantly changing narrators, both of which can be effective literary devices, but they do nothing to improve this book. I lost all hope of enjoying the book after reading only ten pages.

2) Only ten pages into Long Decade Lost, I was completely absorbed. It’s a challenging book; narrators fade in and out, and events occur out of order. But the book’s chaotic structure reflects the chaos in the mind of the main character, a traumatized war veteran navigating peacetime.

Which of the following statements best describes a point of conflict, or disagreement, between these reviews?

A.) They disagree on the book’s subject.
B.) They disagree on the book’s structure.
C.) They disagree on whether the book’s structure is purposeful.
D.) They disagree on how many pages it took to reach a conclusion about the
book.

2.) While researching immigration to the U. S. in the 1800s, Cecil reads these two texts:

Text 1: New arrivals traveling in first or second class disembarked in Manhattan and were allowed to enter the U. S. without a physical examination. Third-class “steerage” passengers, on the other hand, were sent on barges to Ellis Island, where they endured thorough exams that tested their physical and mental health.

Text 2: Only immigrants traveling in third class actually went through Ellis Island. Once there, they were given an invasive medical and psychological exam. First- or second-class immigrants were given a brief examination when their ships arrived in Manhattan and then permitted to leave the ship and go through Customs.

What is the point of difference, or conflict, between these texts?

A.
They differ on the classes of immigrants sent to Ellis Island.
B.
They differ on the types of exams given to third-class passengers.
C.
They differ on where first- and second-class passengers entered the U. S.
D.
They differ on whether first- and second-class passengers were examined before entering the U. S.

"when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.
