Read this excerpt from Chapter IV of Alice in Wonderland.

It was the White Rabbit, trotting slowly back again and looking anxiously about as it went, as if it had lost something; Alice heard it muttering to itself . . . . "Where can I have dropped them, I wonder?" Alice guessed in a moment that it was looking for the fan and the pair of white kid-gloves and she very good-naturedly began hunting about for them, but they were nowhere to be seen . . . .

Very soon the Rabbit noticed Alice, and called to her, in an angry tone, "Why, Mary Ann, what are you doing out here? Run home this moment and fetch me a pair of gloves and a fan! Quick, now!"

Which word best describes the tone created by the underlined words in this excerpt?

carefree
hurried
cooperative
jealous

The following is a student draft. It may contain errors.

One example of scientists working to make people's lives better is through their development of underwater greenhouses, a sustainable method for producing food. One underwater greenhouse, a set of pods anchored to the sea floor just outside the coast of Italy's Liguria Region, is called Nemo's Garden.
Nemo's Garden was developed in 2012 by a company called the Ocean Reef Group. Through their experiments at Nemo's Garden, the group was able to learn that plants grow faster underwater. This discovery led the scientists to conclude that underwater greenhouses could be one way to ensure that countries experiencing drought or other conditions that impact farming would still have access to healthy food.
The pods found in Nemo's garden look similar to something one would see in a science fiction movie. The pods are various sizes and float at different depths, which keeps the plants safe. The dome at the top of each pod allows sunlight to enter, which keeps the plants warm despite the fact that the surrounding water is much cooler.
The crops in Nemo's Garden must remain hydrated to grow. Additionally, the plants must be maintained by a special group of divers and monitored twenty-four hours a day through the use of cameras and sensors.
While underwater greenhouses are not without problems—mainly due to leaking and decay—scientists are hopeful about their potential future uses.

Select the correct answer. Read the sentence from the draft. The pods are various sizes and float at different depths, which keeps the plants safe. What is the best way to revise the sentence for clarity?
A. The acrylic pods are created in many sizes, including big, small, and medium, as well as other sizes needed by the scientists; they are connected to the seafloor by chains and float some distance below the surface, so the plants are not destroyed by storms.

B. The pods, made from a hard plastic called acrylic, can hold approximately 2000 liters of air; they float at depths 20-30 feet below the ocean's surface, which keeps the plants safe from harmful weather conditions above.

C. Pods can hold thousands of liters of air and can be made into many sizes and shapes by using tough, acrylic plastic; the air and acrylic allow the pods to float several feet below the ocean's surface, so as not to become damaged from bad weather.

D. Acrylic is used to make the greenhouse pods, because it is strong and can be fashioned into a variety of sizes and shapes; acrylic floats better than other materials, so it is ideal for keeping plants safe from hazardous weather conditions.

Read the following excerpt from Walden by Henry Thoreau and write a paraphrase of his claim.

"Flint's pond! Such is the poverty of our nomenclature. What right had the unclean and s----d farmer, whose farm abutted on this sky water, whose shores he has ruthlessly laid bare, to give his name to it? Some skin-flint, who loved better the reflecting surface of a dollar, or a bright cent, in which he could see his own brazen face; who regarded even the wild ducks which settled in it as trespassers; his fingers grown into crooked and bony talons from the long habit of grasping harpy-like; - so it is not named for me. I go not there to see him nor to hear of him; who never saw it, who never bathed in it, who never loved it, who never protected it, who never spoke a good word for it, nor thanked God that He had made it. Rather let it be named from the fishes that swim in it, the wild fowl or quadrupeds which frequent it, the wild flowers which grow by its shores, or some wild man or child the thread of whose history is interwoven with its own; not from him who could show no title to it but the deed which a like-minded neighbor or legislature gave him who thought only of its money value; whose presence perchance cursed - him all the shores; who exhausted the land around it, and would fain have exhausted the waters within it; who regretted only that it was not English hay or cranberry meadow - there was nothing to redeem it, forsooth, in his eyes - and would have drained and sold it for the mud at its bottom."
