Which selection best supports the central idea that there are good reasons to be awake during the day? You may think it's normal to be awake during the day and sleep at night, but that's not true for all animals. Humans are diurnal, the scientific term for tending to be up and about during the hours when the sun is up. Being awake in daytime has some obvious advantages: It's warm, it's easy to see, and, at least for humans, sunshine provides much-needed vitamin D and also makes us feel good. But for many animals, being up at night, or being nocturnal, is a great arrangement. Small animals who are in danger from predators can gather food more safely in the dark. And some animals can find their way around by using senses other than sight - bats, for example, use their sense of hearing to navigate. In hot climates, it can also be a good thing to avoid the bright sun and spend the day curled up in a cozy cave or den.​

Answer:

Sunshine provides much-needed vitamin D and also makes us feel good.

Which information is provided by the description of the
setting in this passage from My Antonia?
The land was growing rougher; I was told that we
were approaching Squaw Creek, which cut up the
Nest half of the Shimerdas' place and made the
land of little value for farming. Soon we could see
the broken, grassy clay cliffs which indicated the
windings of the stream, and the glittering tops of
the cottonwoods and ash trees that grew down in
the ravine. Some of the cottonwoods had already
turned, and the yellow leaves and shining white
bark made them look like the gold and silver trees
in fairy tales.
O The poor farm contrasts with the rich beauty of
nature.
O The Shimerdas' farm and everything around it is
poor and ugly.
O The farm, like the rest of the prairie, is beautiful.
The farm is fertile because of all the trees on it.

QUESTION 1

Read the following selection from Act II of Romeo and Juliet. What does the word in bold most likely mean? (10 points)

JULIET
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
