A cry went up from the pack running after him when he fell. There was tension and hysteria in that concerted cry. And other things too, but he scarcely thought about it at all. Three women fell out of the race and clutched their sides and laughed; one of them fell on the sidewalk laughing like that, her belly puffing up huge with laughter, and subsiding again, letting it go.

He scrambled up to his feet, their cries in his ears, spurring him on; he must run, run until he dropped, going God knows where. He scrambled to his feet, his fingers clawing at the asphalt, stumbled on, sounds filling his ears… shriek of a locomotive whistle…coming up, rising to a pitch, and going away…he turned the corner into the street that was at right angles to the one he had come down from the Slaughter House gates… he was running blind before, reacting to the compulsion of his fear…but now he saw his objective and it lent his effort purpose…a long line of freight cars was coming down from the railway yard along the lines that ran across the street, going towards No.1 Pier.

The gates were lowered across the street stopping traffic; all he had to do was to get across the lines before that string of freight cars. They would cut off his pursuit for the time it would take that long train to cross the street. Trains always slowed down going into the dockyard; sometimes stopped, straddling the street. All he had was to get across.

The man operating the gate yelled at him. He paid no heed. He had balanced it in his mind to nicety, figured he’d just have time to get across. He went under the gate. Voices shouted in his ears …the scream of the locomotive whistle rising to a crescendo…he paid no heed. The train was hurtling toward him, but he had time, he could make it.​

https://newsela.com/read/ela-a-modest-proposal/id/2000002556/


The second option is the PDF i attached

Or check out a school-appropriate cartoon at Savage Chickens

* Alternately, you may have your teacher PRE-APPROVE a graphic novel, manga, or other literature that you have read by providing the text you wish to use via email.



2.Using the RACE method, answer the following questions in paragraph form:

What issue is being satirized?
Are there any real people or places described in the text? If not, what does the author do to give you an image of the issue?
Identify the specific artistic techniques used in the text(i.e., symbolism, analogy, exaggeration, labeling, and irony). What is the author trying to show the reader by using these techniques?
What is the message the author is sending?
What do you think is the author's opinion of the issue/topic?
What is the tone of the text?
Think about how the authorportrays the subject: Is he/she using humor to make a point? Is he/she being serious or using scare-tactics to make a point? How is the author getting his/her point across to the reader?
Who is the target audience for this text?
What effect (mood) does the text have on the audience, and why?
What made you select this text to write about?


Make sure you have done the following:

Did you state the topic and give a little background info?

Did you proofread? Does every sentence start with a capital letter?

Did you include specific examples from the cartoon? Think about the characters actions in the cartoon AND what they’re saying.

Did you include transitional words like “first,” “however,” “next,” or “finally?”

Are you sentences easy to read? Make sure they are complete thoughts and not run-ons or fragments.

Did you give the reader a conclusion. Think about wrapping up all of your thoughts into one, nice, neat sentence. *wrap your response in a pretty bow*

Which sound device is emphasized in both of these poetic passages?
By the shores of Gitche Gumee,
By the shining Big- Sea-Water,
Stood the wigwam of Nokomis,
Daughter of the Moon, Nokomis.
Dark behind it rose the forest,
Rose the black and gloomy pine-trees,
Rose the firs with cones upon them;
Bright before it beat the water,
Beat the cear and sunny water,
Beat the shining Big-Sea-Water.
(Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "The Song of Hiawatha")
We rest.-A dream has power to poison sleep;
We rise.One wandering thought pollutes the day:
We feel, conceive or reason, laugh or weep;
Embrace fond woe, or cast our cares away:

It was as I approached the last few bays that I heard what at first I took to be the soft closing of the door at the far end of the room, but which went on, even and regular, like the breathing of someone asleep, a sighing that seemed to come out of the air above my head, as though the whole, great room were somehow a living thing,exhaling around me.I glanced up at the gallery.Someone was there,I was certain of it. The wood creaked. A footfall. I was as far from my way of escaping thing, exhaling around me. I glanced up at the gallery. Someone was there, I was certain as I could have been, trapped alone in this empty place with – whom? What?
‘With nothing,’ I said, aloud and boldly, scornfully – but then started at the sound of my own voice. ‘Nothing.’ And went to the spiral staircase nearest to me, and began to climb, my steps echoing harshly in the stillness of the room.

1. Look at the section beginning “It was as I approached…” and ending with “stillness of the room”.
