Read the summary of "The Beginnings of the Maasai.”

In "The Beginnings of the Maasai,” the daughter of the Maasai explains the relationship between the Maasai and their sky god Enkai. She explains how a volcanic eruption sent Enkai and the cattle into the sky. In order to save the cattle, Enkai created a giant tree that allowed them to walk back to earth. Then, Enkai entrusted Neiterkob, the narrator’s father, and his tribe to care for the cattle. As a result, the cattle are sacred to the Maasai, and the Maasai maintain a close connection with Enkai.

Yes, because it focuses on the details from the beginning, the obstacles from the middle, and the resolution from the end.
No, because it uses too many specific names from the beginning, middle, and end, and it has a vague resolution.
No, because it leaves out details from the beginning, the obstacles from the middle, and the resolution from the end.

Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective," by Lorraine Jean Hopping.

While the dentist worked on the tiger’s teeth, Diane made an alginate impression of one of its huge paws. Then, the dentist used two cupped hands to pull the tongue out of the big cat’s mouth. The heavily muscled organ was almost as long as her foot. With the dentist still holding the tiger tongue in both hands, Diane quickly went to work. The pink surface was rough, like sandpaper, but floppy and wet. She coated the top with alginate and waited for it to set. Her 15 minutes were almost up. The tiger, so calm and soft, would soon wake up and be dangerous again. Slowly and carefully, Diane peeled off the soft impression to avoid tearing it.
