Read this passage from Dragonwings by Laurence Yep. During those trips alone among the demons, Father
and I learned things about
one another; and more, we
learned about being a father and a son. Every trip was
an adventure into a strange, fearful city; and yet I felt
safe by my father's side. Anyone who could laugh and
tell stories and jokes and sing while he was alone among
the demons must know what he was doing. In my own
mind, Father was the embodiment of Uncle's superior
man.
Only once during all those trips did we have any
trouble. Some demon boys were out in the street. They
stooped as if to pick up things to throw, and Father
whispered to me to sit up straight and not show I was
afraid. The demon boys called out some things, but we
ignored them until we had passed them by. A rock
whizzed by my ear and hit Red Rabbit in the side. He
snorted, but plodded on as steadily as before.

a) the boys are throwing rocks at the narrator and his father because they are chinese

b) the narrator calls the boys demons instead of calling them americans

c) the horse has a traditional chinese name, red rabbit, instead of an american name

d) the narrator and his father ignore the boys instead of confronting them for their actions

Read the passage from sugar changed the world. sugar is different from honey. it offers a stronger sweet flavor, and like steel or plastic, it had to be invented. in the age of sugar, europeans bought a product made thousands of miles away that was less expensive than the honey from down the road. that was possible only because sugar set people in motion all across the world—millions of them as slaves, in chains; a few in search of their fortunes. a perfect taste made possible by the most brutal labor: that is the dark story of sugar. how does the comparison of sugar to honey reveal the authors’ purpose? it persuades readers that sugar tastes better than honey. it informs readers that there is a connection between slavery and sugar. it informs readers that honey had a major impact on society. it persuades readers that sugar is as important an invention as steel.
