C. Younger people tend to play the lottery more often than older people

Part B

A. "If just one person wins the prize, he or she will not be getting a big $1.53 billion check the next day."
B. "Ten years after winning the lottery, most people have only saved 16 cents for every dollar they won."
C. "Guido Imbens and Bruce Sacerdote study people's spending."
D. "Assets are valuable objects like houses or cars that add to a person's total worth."

2) The detail from the text that best supports the answer to Part A is "Ten years after winning the lottery, most people have only saved 16 cents for every dollar they won." Therefore the correct answer is Option B.
1) The article likely discusses how many lottery winners, despite winning large sums of money, often face financial difficulties and even bankruptcy in the aftermath of their wins. It highlights the fact that suddenly coming into a substantial amount of money doesn't necessarily lead to a positive outcome, as poor financial management and other factors can contribute to financial downfall. The article might present real-life examples to support this central idea.
2)The detail from the text that best supports the answer to Part A is "Ten years after winning the lottery, most people have only saved 16 cents for every dollar they won." This detail provides evidence of the financial challenges that many lottery winners face despite of their large winnings. It demonstrates that even after a decade, a significant portion of the money they won has not been effectively managed or saved, indicating the potential for financial mismanagement and challenges in maintaining their wealth.

Read the excerpt from "Marie Curie and the Discovery of Radioactivity."
It was a thrilling time to be a scientist. The year the Curies were married, 1895, a German physicist named Wilhelm Roentgen discovered a new kind of ray that could be used to “see” inside people and photograph their bones. He called them X rays. The X stood for “unknown.”
Not long after, the French physicist Henri Becquerel discovered that uranium let out another type of ray. These rays were weak compared to X rays, and even Becquerel himself did not think his discovery of much importance. But Marie found the rays fascinating. Where did they come from? How were they produced? She decided to examine these mysterious “Becquerel rays” for her advanced research.

Harry Potter - Book 1 - Chapter 2
Why do you think the Dursleys treat Harry the way they do?
Why do you think strange things seem to "happen" around Harry?
What strange thing did the snake do?
Who are these strange people that come up to talk to Harry on the street?
Why do the Dursleys punish Harry for all the strange things that happen?
Answer:
The snake spoke to Harry.
Because they think he was the one who let the snake-free, and he was also the one who traped Dursley in the Glass dome.
The Dursleys treat Harry very cruelly in regards to his magic because they blame it for the death of his parents. Both, including Petunia Dursleys' younger sister Lily, were killed by Voldemort as young adults when Harry was just a baby.
His hair was cut and grew back overnight; his sweater shrank all on its own, and he was able to leap onto a chimney.
Just random wizards and witches that have heard of Harry Potter, but who don't know him personally - and of course, Harry Potter doesn't know them. The idea is that Harry Potter is famous, due to his defeat of Lord Voldemort when he was one year old - of which he remembers hardly anything, and (at first) has no idea how it might have happened.

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London
꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷
Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.
꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷
As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.
꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷
At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:
꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷
"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."

"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.

What do the details about the length of the Arctic day add to the story? Please respond in three to five complete sentences, including specific lines from the excerpt to support your answer.
Answer:
hmmmm... So you we know the "cries" and "hunting cries" are actually the howling of wolves nearby. Imagine how much worse that would be as it grew dark. You know the wolves are right there but you can't see them.
Think about how the shortness of daylight -- no direct sun, only its light -- would affect the men and the dogs, especially with the wolves so near. Describe that. Use lines from this story to back it up. You only need about 4-5 sentences.

Pearl Harbor Speech, December 8, 1941
To the Congress of the United States
Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941 - a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.
The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with the government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific.
Indeed, one hour after Japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing in Oahu, the Japanese ambassador to the United States and his colleagues delivered to the Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent American message. While this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack.
It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time, the Japanese government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.
The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. Very many American lives have been lost. In addition, American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Honolulu.
Yesterday, the Japanese government also launched an attack against Malaya.
Last night, Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong.
Last night, Japanese forces attacked Guam.
Last night, Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands.
Last night, the Japanese attacked Wake Island.
This morning, the Japanese attacked Midway Island.
Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.
As commander in chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense.
Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us.
No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.
I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.
With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounding determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God.
I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, Dec. 7, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese empire.
Before the attack on Pear Harbor, how would people define the relationship between Japan and the United States?
A.
cordial
B.
hostile
C.
neutral
D.
dependent
