Which line from the excerpt is an example of
foreshadowing?
Read the excerpt from "The Legacy of Billy Mason."
Billy closed his eyes, hoping against hope that the name
would go away, but when he opened them, it was still
there: Billy Mason. Not Billy Mason Farrell, just Billy
Mason.
"What?" he tried to scream, overcome by fear, but no
sound came out.
Not Billy Mason Farrell, just Billy Mason.
O "What?" he tried to scream...
The door across the landing was still open.
A soft light filled the room...
"What do you want?" he finally whispered, but no one
answered.
Hours later, after Billy had drifted in and out of sleep all
night, he woke up. The door across the landing was still
open. A soft light filled the room and, once more, he saw
his name. It was not a figment of his imagination; his
name was painted in gold on the cover of a book.

"Hope" is the thing with feathers
by Emily Dickinson
"Hope" is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all
And sweetest in the Galeis heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the linte Bird
That kept so many warm
I've heard it in the chillest land
And on the strangest Sea
Yet never in Extremity.
I asked a crumb of me
Hope is not necessary to survival

Excerpt from Crime and Punishment
The heat in the street was terrible: and the airlessness, the bustle and the plaster, scaffolding, bricks, and dust all about him, and that special Petersburg stench, so familiar to all who are unable to get out of town in summer—all worked painfully upon the young man’s already overwrought nerves. The insufferable stench from the pot-houses, which are particularly numerous in that part of the town, and the drunken men whom he met continually, although it was a working day, completed the revolting misery of the picture. An expression of the profoundest disgust gleamed for a moment in the young man’s refined face. He was, by the way, exceptionally handsome, above the average in height, slim, well-built, with beautiful dark eyes and dark brown hair. Soon he sank into deep thought, or more accurately speaking into a complete blankness of mind; he walked along not observing what was about him and not caring to observe it. From time to time, he would mutter something, from the habit of talking to himself, to which he had just confessed. At these moments he would become conscious that his ideas were sometimes in a tangle and that he was very weak; for two days he had scarcely tasted food.
The description of the setting, in the beginning, highlights a contrast between -
A) the rundown part of town and the man’s polished belongings
B) the dirty streets and the man’s clean attire
C) the revolting streets and the man’s attractive outward appearance
D) the terrible smell and the man’s indifference to his surroundings

Read this short passage and answer the questions below:

Excerpt from A Study in Scarlet
By Conan Doyle

In the year 1878 I took my degree of Doctor of Medicine of the University of London and proceeded to Netley to go through the course prescribed for surgeons in the army. Having completed my studies there, I was duly attached to the Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers as Assistant Surgeon. The regiment was stationed in India at the time, and before I could join it, the second Afghan war had broken out. On landing at Bombay, I learned that my corps had advanced through the passes and was already deep in the enemy’s country. I followed, however, with many other officers who were in the same situation as myself, and succeeded in reaching Candahar in safety, where I found my regiment, and at once entered upon my new duties. The campaign brought honors and promotion to many, but for me it had nothing but misfortune and disaster. I was removed from my brigade and attached to the Berkshires, with whom I served at the fatal battle of Maiwand. There I was struck on the shoulder by a Jezail bullet, which shattered the bone and grazed the subclavian artery. I should have fallen into the hands of the murderous Ghazis had it not been for the devotion and courage shown by Murray, my orderly, who threw me across a pack-horse, and succeeded in bringing me safely to the British lines. Worn with pain, and weak from the prolonged hardships which I had undergone, I was removed, with a great train of wounded sufferers, to the base hospital at Peshawar. Here I rallied, and had already improved so far as to be able to walk about the wards, and even to bask a little upon the verandah, when I was struck down by enteric fever. For months my life was despaired of, and when at last I came to myself and became convalescent, I was so weak and emaciated that a medical board determined that not a day should be lost in sending me back to England. I was dispatched, accordingly, in the troopship “Orontes,” and landed a month later on Portsmouth jetty, with my health irretrievably ruined.

What is the main idea of this excerpt from Abraham Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address?

To strengthen, perpetuate, and extend this interest was the object for which the insurgents would rend the Union, even by war; while the government claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial enlargement of it.

He belonged to them as all dogs belonged to them. His actions were theirs to command. His body was theirs to maul, to stamp upon, to tolerate. Such was the lesson that was quickly borne in upon him. It came hard, going as it did, counter to much that was strong and dominant in his own nature; and, while he disliked it in the learning of it, unknown to himself he was learning to like it. It was a placing of his destiny in another's hands, a shifting of the responsibilities of existence.
