from President John F. Kennedy's Inaugural Address, 1961

…In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than in mine, will rest the final success or failure of our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe.

Now the trumpet summons us again—not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need; not as a call to battle, though embattled we are—but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation"—a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.

Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East and West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join in that historic effort?

In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility—I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it—and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.

And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.

My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.

Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own.

Consider this sentence from the text:

The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe.

What figure of speech is Kennedy using in this sentence, and what does he want to make his listeners feel?

He is using irony to suggest sympathy for Americans who have died in battle over the years.
He is using hyperbole to make listeners feel inspired by the sacrifices of those who have gone before them.
He is using personification to compare live Americans with those who have died fighting for their country.
He is using simile to compare audience members with Americans who have fought and died for their country.

Researchers Charles Buffum and Craig Harger say that the destruction of the USS Revenge changed the course of
history. After the ship sank, the Navy demoted Oliver Perry, the ship's commander. Because of this demotion,
Perry was denied another high seas command. Instead, he was assigned to the Great Lakes during the War of
1812. Perry assembled and commanded a small American naval force. In the 1813 Battle of Lake Erie, with two
battleships and 500 men, he defeated the British and retained control of the Great Lakes. After the battle, Perry
was promoted to captain and awarded a medal by Congress. Buffum and Harger assert that ultimately the
shipwreck of the USS Revenge played a direct role in shaping U.S. history and Perry's career.

Geckos are small to average-sized lizards which are found in warm climates all over the world. They are unique among lizards because of the way they sound. They make chirping sounds to communicate with other geckos. The name gecko comes from the Indonesian word gekok which imitates the sound of their chirps. Many species of gecko have special toe pads which enable them to climb smooth surfaces easily, even indoor ceilings. In some parts of the world, geckos are commonly allowed to live indoors because they eat insects and other pests. There are 1,196 different species of geckos! Here are just a few: Leopard gecko: Leopard geckos are commonly kept as pets. Unlike most geckos, they have claws rather than tow pads and cannot climb the grass of their terrariums. Ptychozoon: Native to southeast Asia, these tree-dwellers are known as Flying or Parachute geckos. They have wing-like flaps from their neck to upper legs which help them provide lift when jumping. Crocodile gecko: Known as crocodile geckos because of their spiky skin, these geckos are heavy and large (up to 6 inches long). They are found in Mediterranean regions. Top right, This Gold-Dust Day gecko is just one of the 1,196 species of gecko.

Science Mysteries: Why Do People Yawn?

Science has given humans many amazing devices and useful bits of knowledge. We know so much about our bodies and how to stay healthy, for example. We also know how to make machines and devices that make life easy for us. Scientists dedicate their lives to knowledge, but even with a lifetime commitment, sometimes scientists fail to find all the answers. One mystery that still remains unsolved is why we yawn—what makes us yawn and what purpose it serves.

Recent studies suggest that we yawn when we get tired as a way to encourage our brains. The theory is that yawning helps cool the brain, allowing it to work more efficiently. According to WebMD's article about these studies, when you yawn, your jaw muscles get stretched, increasing blood flow to your neck, face, and head. Also a deep breath during the yawn forces spinal fluid and blood down from the brain. The cool air then cools down these fluids.

Other scientists believe, however, that yawning is a form of communication. This theory attempts to explain why yawning seems to spread from person to person. This kind of behavior is called "contagious yawning" and carries with it a possible social message. Scientists are not yet sure what exactly the message is, but they believe people who have more social empathy are more likely to start yawning when they see someone else yawning.

Scientists will continue to investigate the mystery of the yawn. Is it a leftover behavior from before humans had language? Was it a "Hey, I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep" message? Or is it really just a way to keep our brains cool? While this behavior still is largely a mystery, one thing is certain: you are probably fighting the urge to yawn right about now.

Which word from the text best describes scientists' understanding of the yawn?
a. Mystery
b. Breath
c. Language
d. Message
