(NO LINKS) Read the passage from the chapter "My Breaking In" from Black Beauty, in which the horse describes his first encounter with the train.

In the course of the day many other trains went by, some more slowly; these drew up at the station close by, and sometimes made an awful shriek and groan before they stopped. I thought it very dreadful, but the cows went on eating very quietly, and hardly raised their heads as the black frightful thing came puffing and grinding past.

Why does the author use figurative language to describe the train in this passage?

A. The author uses an idiom related to the noises the train makes to explain that Black Beauty thinks the train is alive.
B. The author uses a metaphor that compares the noises the train makes and the animals peacefully grazing to allow readers to understand Black Beauty's awareness of his surroundings.
C. The author uses an analogy that compares time passing and a train passing to explain that Black Beauty feels as though time has slowed down.
D. The author uses personification of the noises the train makes to help readers understand Black Beauty's experience.

PART 2

To practice using adjectives and adverbs, your assignment this week is to compose a story or essay. It can relate to your Social Studies material (perhaps you'd like to compose your own adventure for some of the characters in the book you're reading, or about some of the people discussed in that course in recent weeks), or it can be about anything you want. It should be one to two pages long, and use plenty of adjectives and adverbs. Review the material called "Paragraphs" and "Paragraph Forms", if necessary. You may choose your own topic or use one of these ideas:

My favorite time of year

Special places I have been

A dream I had

If I had three wishes

If I had been born on the other side of the world

Something I want to do someday

Fill in the blank with the sentence that has the same point of view as the rest of the paragraph.

You should have been there and seen it for yourself. _________ I swear, right before my eyes, in walked a baby goat in a sweater. It was a blue and green checkered sweater. Following it was one of its parents, and I promise, as sure as I'm telling you this story, that the older goat was wearing a bowtie. Blue and green, like the baby's sweater, but this time it was blue with green polka dots!

The Beggar and the King

by Winthrop Parkhurst

[A chamber in the palace overlooks a courtyard. The season is midsummer. The windows of the palace are open, and from a distance there comes the sound of a man's voice crying for bread.]

[THE KING sits in a golden chair. A golden crown is on his head, and he holds in his hand a sceptre which is also of gold. A SERVANT stands by his side, fanning him with an enormous fan of peacock feathers.]

THE BEGGAR: (outside) Bread. Bread. Bread. Give me some bread.

THE KING: (languidly) Who is that crying in the street for bread?

THE SERVANT: (fanning) O king, it is a beggar.

THE KING: Why does he cry for bread?

THE SERVANT: O king, he cries for bread in order that he may fill his belly.

THE KING: I do not like the sound of his voice. It annoys me very much. Send him away.

THE SERVANT: (bowing) O king, he has been sent away.

THE KING: If that is so, then why do I hear his voice?

THE SERVANT: O king, he has been sent away many times, yet each time that he is sent away he returns again, crying louder than he did before.

THE KING: He is very unwise to annoy me on such a warm day. He must be punished for his impudence. Use the lash on him.

THE SERVANT: O king, it has been done.

THE KING: Then bring out the spears.

THE SERVANT: O king, the guards have already bloodied their swords many times driving him away from the palace gates. But it is of no avail.

THE KING: Then bind him and gag him if necessary. If need be cut out his tongue. I do not like the sound of the fellow's voice. It annoys me very much.

THE SERVANT: O king, thy orders were obeyed even yesterday.

THE KING: (frowning) No. That cannot be. A beggar cannot cry for bread who has no tongue.

THE SERVANT: Behold he can—if he has grown another.

THE KING: What! Why, men are not given more than one tongue in a lifetime. To have more than one tongue is treason.

THE SERVANT: If it is treason to have more than one tongue, O king, then is this beggar surely guilty of treason?

THE KING: (pompously) The punishment for treason is death. See to it that the fellow is slain. And do not fan me so languidly. I am very warm.

THE SERVANT: (fanning more rapidly) Behold, O great and illustrious king, all thy commands were obeyed even yesterday.

THE KING: How! Do not jest with thy king.

THE SERVANT: If I jest, then there is truth in a jest. Even yesterday, O king, as I have told thee, the beggar which thou now hearest crying aloud in the street was slain by thy soldiers with a sword.

THE KING: Do ghosts eat bread? Forsooth, men who have been slain with a sword do not go about in the streets crying for a piece of bread.

THE SERVANT: Forsooth, they do if they are fashioned as this beggar.

THE KING: Why, he is but a man. Surely he cannot have more than one life in a lifetime.

THE SERVANT: Listen to a tale, O king, which happened yesterday.

THE KING: I am listening.

THE SERVANT: Thy soldiers smote this beggar for crying aloud in the streets for bread, but his wounds are already healed. They cut out his tongue, but he immediately grew another. They slew him, yet he is now alive.

THE KING: Ah! That is a tale which I cannot understand at all.

BRAINLIEST FOR WHOEVER GETS IT !!! Looking over the excerpts shown below, which of the following best compares the themes of the passages?


[Mama] would quickly subordinate her own desires to those of the family or the community, because she knew cooperation was the only way to survive. At the same time she placed a high premium on personal privacy, respected it in others and insisted upon it for herself. ...Almost everyone at Manzanar had inherited this pair of traits from the generations before them who had learned to live in a small, crowded country like Japan."

Greedy for stories, I devoured books in the children's section of the library. In those days, it was easy to conclude that any tale worth publishing originated in the so-called West, was written in English, and featured North American or European characters.


Slowly, insidiously, I began to judge my heritage through colonial eyes. I asked my mother not to wear a sari, her traditional dress, when she visited me at school.


I avoided the sun so that the chocolate hue of my skin couldn't darken. The nuances and cadences of my father’s Bangla began to grate on my ears. "Not THAT story again, Dad," I'd say. "I'm reading right now."



1. Both passages deal with strong individuals that hold onto what makes them strong and powerful.

2. Both passages deal with ignoring one's heritage and beiefs in order to adopt an American way of life.

3. Both passages deal with a younger generation shunning the older generation.

4. Both passages deal with the treatment of groups during war time and what a country will do to win the war.
