HELP PLEASE “I see one." she yelled, pointing.
"That's great." Ron yelled back. "Wait till you see a lot more than just one. It's not
worth stopping for one."
Alicia continued looking, scanning first one side of the boat then the other. She saw
a stingray dash away, patches of gleaming white sand here and there, and another
few sea urchins. Then suddenly, as if they had passed into a new world, scallops were
everywhere. Every few feet on both sides of the boat she saw them. Waving her
hand at Ron, she turned and got ready to drop the anchor.
"Here," she said. "Right here is perfect."
Ron cut the motor and Alicia dropped the anchor off the bow. She turned. Ron had
already put on his tennis shoes and was putting sunblock on his face. He threw the
sunblock in her direction, and threw a leg over the side of the boat.
"Get your shoes on. There's a mesh bag on the seat for you. Use that to collect your
scallops. We'll put them in the cooler when the bags get futt."
Alicia slipped out of the boat a few minutes after Ron. The ground under her feet
was squishy but solid; the sea grass brushed her legs. Spotting a nearby scallop, she
walked slowly over, reached down-water up to her elbow and touched its shell. Sure
it would squirt away, she was surprised when nothing happened at all. Reaching
behind and underneath it, she lifted the scallop out of the water and up to her face
to look more closely. The top shell was dark green, almost brown with tiny barnacles
here and there. The bottom shell was white and smooth.
"Told ya." Ron yelled at her from the other side of the boat. "It's super easy."
Just then the scallop she was holding opened its shell slightly. Alicia saw a row of
iridescent blue dots among what looked like frilly whiskers. Was it looking at her?
Suddenly she felt the scallop contract in her hand. Its shell clamped shut, and water
squirted out of it. Right into her face.
"Ahhh. she screamed, dropping the scallop and hearing Ron's hoots of laughter
behind her.
"And there, dear sister is the scallop's bite. Do be careful. Ron said, laughing harder.
Alicia had to grin as her brother's laugh grew touder. I take a squirt in the face any
day over a bite." she said bending to retrieve the dropped bivalve. It was going to be
a good day.

For My Gorgeous Waterfall
by falling
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Your palace is gorgeous,
And so are you.

Orchids are white,
Ghost ones are rare,
Grandeur is majestic,
And so is your hair.

Magnolia grows,
With buds like eggs,
Your functioning is smooth,
And so are your legs.

Sunflowers reach,
Up to the skies,
Tea is green,
And so are your eyes.

Foxgloves in hedges,
Surround the farms,
The place is beautiful,
And so are your arms.

Daisies are pretty,
Daffies have style,
A welcome is warm,
And so is your smile.

A waterfall is beautiful,
Just like you.

Due to Melinda's constant desire to sleep combined with wearing drab clothes and black nail polish, the reader can infer

Read the passage carefully and then answer the question.

I have in my hand two publications; one is The Adventures of William Dodd the Factory Cripple and the other is entitled The Factory System - both books have gone forth to the public under the sanction of the noble Lord Ashley. I do not wish to go into the particulars of the character of this man, for it is not necessary to my case, but I can demonstrate, that his books and statements are wholly unworthy of credit. Dodd states that from the hardships he endured in a factory, he was "done up" at the age of thirty-two, whereas I can prove that he was treated with uniform kindness, which he repaid by gross immorality of conduct, and for which he was discharged from his employment.

How does the speaker seem to feel about William Dodd?
He feels that William Dodd is a liar who should be questioned.
He feels that William Dodd is a good person who would never lie.
He feels that William Dodd is a dangerous and unstable individual.
He feels that William Dodd is a man who needs help from others.
