Read this excerpt from The Miracle Worker. (As soon as they locate her voice they throng joyfully to her, speaking all at once; ANNIE is down on her knees to the smallest, and the following are the more intelligible fragments in the general hubbub.) CHILDREN: There’s a present. We brought you a going-away present, Annie! ANNIE: Oh, now you shouldn’t have – CHILDREN: We did, we did, where’s the present? SMALLEST CHILD [MOURNFULLY]: Don’t go, Annie, away. Which of these statements provides the best summary of the scene? The girls, wearing their customary plain dresses, enter the room and encourage Annie to stay. The girls give Annie her present and crowd around her lovingly, with everyone sharing their thoughts. The girls greet Annie enthusiastically, eager to share their present and their desire for her to stay. The girls are disappointed that their friend is leaving, but they are kind and wish her well.

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.
