Nature is a cycle. As a botanist, I make observations about this cycle every day. Plants and animals grow, die, decay, and then return to the earth so that other things can grow. Think about the ground in the forest. Leaves and branches may fall to the ground, but they do not pile up endlessly. Eventually, the organic materials are broken down and go back into the soil. This is called decomposition, and it happens every day. When someone controls the decomposition of organic material, they are composting. Lucas Land, in his “Ode to Compost,” sings that compost is “lifeless leftovers lingering in the grave.” Lettuce, banana peels, bread crust, and coffee rinds all rot together in a lovely, nutrient-rich, organic soup. This soup then feeds other plants. “I put compost on my garden every three months,” says Beth Barley, a lifelong farmer.

The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
Now you must know that a Town Mouse once upon a time went on a visit to his cousin in the country. He was rough and ready, this cousin, but he
loved his town friend and made him heartily welcome. Beans and bacon, cheese and bread, were all he had to offer, but he offered them freely. The
Town Mouse rather turned up his long nose at this country fare, and said: "I cannot understand, Cousin, how you can put up with such poor food as
this, but of course you cannot expect anything better in the country, come you with me and I will show you how to live. When you have been in town
a week you will wonder how you could ever have stood a country life." No sooner said than done: the two mice set off for the town and arrived at the
Town Mouse's residence late at night. You will want some refreshment after our long journey," said the polite Town Mouse, and took his friend into
the grand dining room. There they found the remains of a fine feast, and soon the two mice were eating up jellies and cakes and all that was nice.
Suddenly they heard growing and barking, "What is that said the Country Mouse. It is only the dogs of the house," answered the other. "Only"
said the Country Mouse. "I do not like that music at my dinner. Just at that moment the door flew open, in came two huge mastiffs, and the two mice
had to scamper down and run off. "Good-bye, Cousin," said the Country Mouse, "Whats going so soon?" said the other. "Yes," he replied: "Better
beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear

Many of the poorest performing schools in the country are also located in some of the most economically disadvantaged areas.
It's pretty safe to say that poor performance in school is caused by poverty. Government funding for education should be distributed
in such a way that poorer school districts get more money than the districts where parents earn higher incomes.

How is this passage an example of faulty cause and effect reasoning?
A. It implies that students at poor schools are not as intelligent as other students.

B. It assumes that poverty alone is the cause of poor school performance.

C. It reasons that schools in impoverished areas should receive more funding.

D. It suggests that children whose parents make more money should suffer.

Which one of these words mean the same as the sentence above in the image ?

To Autumn
by John Keats

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells.


Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find
Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep,
Drows'd with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers:
And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook;
Or by a cyder-press, with patient look,
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours.


Where are the songs of spring? Ay, Where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,—
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue;
Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;
And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;
Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft
The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

Autumn is a sad season, and the autumn of life is equally sad.

Autumn is simply a precursor to winter, and the autumn of life is a time of grief.

Autumn is a beautiful season, but spring is much preferred.

"Where are the songs of spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,—"

"And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook; . . .
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours."

"Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness . . .
Conspiring . . . how to load and bless
With fruit the vines . . .
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core."

"Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;"

Around the back is a yard, mostly dirt, and a greasy bunch of boards that used to be a garage. But what you remember most is this tree, huge, with fat arms and mighty families of squirrels in the higher branches. All around, the neighborhood of roofs, black-tarred and A-framed, and in their gutters, the balls that never came back down to earth. Down at the base of the tree, the dog with two names barks into the empty air, and there at the end of the block, looking smaller still, our house with its feet tucked under like a cat.

This is the tree we chose for the First Annual Tarzan Jumping Contest. Meme won. And broke both arms.
