Answer:

Warmth and Love

Explanation:

According to both passages, in which two ways do most Americans' breakfast preferences differ from the rest of the world?

Passage 1

Breakfast in America

In America, breakfast is the only meal that is still eaten at home by most of the population. About 80% of Americans eat the first meal of the day at home. The other 20% of people either skip breakfast or buy their morning meal outside of the home.
Most Americans eat dry cereal with milk for breakfast. Fruit juices, such as orange juice and apple juice, are common breakfast drinks. Eggs, with or without bacon, are the second most common morning meal. Bagels, muffins, and pastries are eaten less often than cereal and eggs.
The breakfast trends in America are changing, though. While cereal is still the most popular breakfast food, its sales have started declining sharply in the last few years. Instead, more Americans are reaching for portable breakfast items, like yogurt and sandwiches. Many people who eat breakfast want a satisfying meal without a lot of added sugar. Breakfast items rising in popularity are higher in fiber and protein than dry cereal.
A typical "All-American Breakfast" on the menu at restaurants might include eggs, bacon, ham, toast, potatoes, and coffee. However, most Americans are eating a lot less food in the mornings. They are also on the lookout for breakfast items that are easy to prepare and easy to carry.

Passage 2

What's for Breakfast?

The nutrients you eat in the morning help give your body energy all day long. In the United States, like in some other countries, cereal in milk is a popular breakfast food. However, unlike the United States, many other countries include seafood, meats, and vegetables in their morning meal.
All over the world, people eat foods for breakfasts that most people in the United States would save for later meals or not eat at all. In Japan, miso soup, white rice, squash with soy sauce, and grilled salmon are part of a common breakfast. In both Brazil and Germany, large pieces of bread served with cheese and meat, such as ham and sausage, make up the morning meal. In China, breakfasts vary greatly by region.
Dim sum, which is made up of small plates of food such as dumplings and marinated meat, is one traditional breakfast option in the large country. A soup made of egg, milk, and green onions is a morning staple in Columbia. In Nigeria, moi moi, which is a paste made of ground beans, is wrapped in leaves and steamed for breakfast. In both Australia and France, breakfast cereals served with fruit and bread are common for breakfast. In Turkey, small plates of many items, such as tomato slices, olives, bread, cheese, eggs, cucumbers, jam, honey, and sausage, make up breakfast.
Though breakfasts around the world look different, they all serve the same purpose—to satisfy your hunger, at least until lunch!

Racing to Race

Carlo stopped to rest for a minute and tried to catch his breath. He’d been running for so long that he had pains in his side and his legs were beginning to hurt. He hunched over and tried to expand his lungs, but it was like trying to suck air out of a bicycle tire. His body was too exhausted to even allow him to take a deep breath, and he started to wheeze again.

“Great,” he thought, “let me just add asthma to my expanding list of ailments. I can’t believe that I can’t even jog two miles without completely collapsing!” He finally gave in to his aching body and laid down on the grass to recuperate. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself running on the school track in the 1,600-meter race. He pictured himself running steadily toward the finish line, running effortlessly like a cheetah in the jungle. He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear Meiya approach.

“Hey sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Sean’s lawn in the middle of the day?” Meiya asked playfully.

Carlo quickly sat up, breathing normally now and feeling a little embarrassed. “I am trying to get in shape to try out for track, but I can’t even run two miles,” he said dejectedly.

“Wait, how many months are you out of surgery? Didn’t you just finish rehab last week?” Meiya asked. “You can’t expect to run two miles the first day.”

It had been six months since Carlo’s surgery and he specifically remembered the doctor telling him he could start running after six months. But he thought about what Meiya had said and realized she had a good point. After his surgery, the doctor did say rehab would be crucial to his recovery but that it would take time for him to gain back full use of his leg. He thought about how a baby had to learn to walk before it could run. He remembered when his nephew was learning to crawl; within days it seemed like he was walking. Running didn’t come right away, Carlo remembered. He realized it was the same with his therapy. The maximum he had run in the past month was one mile on the treadmill, so he realized that Meiya was probably right. He would have to work at building up his endurance and set more realistic goals for himself. As he thought about what he had already accomplished, he started to smile and felt like a weight was being lifted off his shoulders. He realized that he had run almost a mile and a half before his body started to protest and if he kept working hard, he could get back to where he was before his accident.

“Since when did you get so smart, Dr. Meiya?” he teased. “Do you want to race to the next mailbox?”

“You’re on!” she challenged and took off running at full speed.

.....................
Question 2

Part B

Which statement best shows how the theme identified in Part A is developed in the story?


A. Carlo pictures himself winning a big race on the school track team; when he realizes that he may not be able to run, he is very discouraged and disappointed.

B. Meiya knows that she is faster than Carlo, so she does her best to encourage him and also lets him win a race between them to boost his spirits.

C. Carlo is impatient about his ability to train for track tryouts, but after his conversation with Meiya, he realizes it will take time and work to heal his injury and fully recover.

D. Carlo realizes that he may not be able to compete on the school track team but also discovers that, with time, he will still be able to participate in a sport he loves.

It is March 15, in the year 2514. The people of former New York are in desperate circumstances. They are being overrun, and they are losing hope. The banners proclaiming a Free the Real NYC lie in the gutters, trampled by terrified and panicked citizens. Two teens– or kidz, as they are called now– are on their way home from a secret meeting. As they walk in the shadows to avoid detection, they both trip on a huge titanium cylinder. Etched into the surface are a series of scratched-out words. The only words they can make out are, "he will prevail." They drag the heavy cylinder into a hidden alleyway and twist it open. The glow from their flashlights reveals the contents of the cylinder. With gasps of relief, they look at each other with hope in their eyes for the first time in years.
Adam and Bridget were walking home one night from a Free the Real NYC meeting. They were walking in the shadows to avoid being caught by the curfew police when they tripped over a huge titanium cylinder. There were three words etched on it that they could read. "He will prevail?", Bridget asked quizzed, "What's that supposed to mean?" Out of curiosity, Adam opened the container. They shone their flashlights at the titanium cylinder as they gasped in awe and relief. It was a news article from December 13, 2505! It was written about how the leader of the formerly NYC was planning to build a machine that could wipe out the entire city! They rushed back to the secret base of the Free the Real NYC resistance. They put the container on the table. Now that it was in better lighting, they could read the rest of the etchings. They read ψοφώ, Greek for "I'm dying." They learn that the etching was written by the founder of the resistance, Henry Gihigal. He wrote it when the leader of the Cultists, Tabea Thomas, was torturing him with methods unheard of. He wrote the "He will prevail" section speaking of the resistance. The "ψοφώ" was to tell the resistance to choose a new leader. They started planning their attack to make sure that the machine was destroyed.

“Well,” he says, “there’s excuse for picks and letting-on, in a case like this; if it warn’t so, I wouldn’t approve of it, nor I wouldn’t stand by and see the rules broke—because right is right, and wrong is wrong, and a body ain’t got no business doing wrong when he ain’t ignorant and knows better. It might answer for you to dig Jim out with a pick, without any letting-on, because you don’t know no better; but it wouldn’t for me, because I do know better.”

One of the many things that authors have to consider when writing is the audience they are writing for. The author may use specific techniques to interest a particular audience, or shape their writing to ensure that their specific audience will understand the main ideas. For example, if you were writing an instruction manual for rocket scientists, it would likely look very different from one you would write for young children. Your language, tone, and writing style would change significantly.

You will be writing two separate paragraphs in this journal entry, each intended for a very different audience. Imagine you have been asked to write a paragraph about something you can do to improve your school or community. First, write the paragraph imagining that the readers of the paragraph will be first- and second-graders at the local elementary school. Then, revise the paragraph, this time writing it for an audience of political repesentatives in your city.

Your response should be no less than 150 words in total, and must include both versions of the paragraph.
