Read the scenario of a formal discussion. Evan, Ben, and Violet are discussing a short story. [Ben sits up straight at his desk.]

EVAN: On page 7, the text says, "the old man quickly changed his frown to a smile when he noticed his daughter had come to visit.” This shows that the man is hiding his true feelings of pain to protect his daughter’s feelings.

[Ben raises his hand.]

VIOLET: Ben, do you have a question for Evan?

BEN: Yes. Evan, I can see how you would think that. But, later on page 7, the text says, "the old man’s best memories were of spending time with his daughter.” Do you think this indicates that the daughter’s presence actually changes the old man’s mood?

EVAN: No. That’s a dumb idea. On page 8, the text describes how the old man continues to have negative thoughts even with his daughter there.

How does Evan need to improve his participation?

A. He needs to make connections with prior knowledge.
B. He needs to use body language to show engagement.
C. He needs to respectfully acknowledge the viewpoint of others.
D. He needs to take notes to summarize the speaker’s ideas.

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
