From Saving Species: Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtles
Every summer, Padre Island National Seashore's turtle team inventories Kemp's ridley sea turtle nests in the park's sandy beaches along the
Gulf of Mexico. The eggs are carefully dug up and incubated at a park lab away from human disruptions and natural predators. Under the watchful
eye of Donna Shaver, Ph. D., chief of sea turtle science and recovery, thousands of turtle babies are hatched and released, often cheered on by
doring crowds as they make their slow crawl to the sea. After five years of record nesting, Shaver says the park's plan to restore the endangered
Kemp's ridley is working: turtles hatched from eggs transplanted from Mexico, as part of an international recovery effort and released 10-15 years
ago are coming back to the park to lay their own eggs. They are even being joined by "wild stock"—turtles that were not hatched as part of the
recovery efforts-making Padre Island National Seashore the most prolific Kemp's ridley nesting beach in the U. S.
(from "Saving Species: Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtles by the U. S. National Park Service)
What does the word prolific indicate about the beach described in the passage?
1. It is a home to powerful ocean conditions.
2. It is a place where primitive species are studied.
3. It is a productive site for increasing sea turtle populations,
4. It is a popular destination for tourists to observe sea turtles.

assignment

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
