Read this passage about Amelia Earhart.

Amelia Earhart was born July 24, 1897, in Kansas. She was an adventurous and fun-loving child. That adventurous spirit remained as she grew older. One day in 1920, after going on a plane ride, she was determined to fly planes. She worked at any job she could find to save up for flying lessons, which cost $1,000. At one point, she worked as a nurse’s aid and a social worker. Six months after receiving flying lessons, Amelia bought her own plane, and she flew as high as 14,000 feet, which set a world record for female pilots. A short time afterward, Amelia became the sixteenth female to earn a pilot’s license. In 1928, an opportunity arose for Amelia to participate in a transatlantic flight across the Atlantic Ocean as a copilot. This experience later came in handy when she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic in 1938. She received many honors for this achievement, such as the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress.

As Amelia approached her fortieth birthday, she was planning her biggest trip yet: She wanted to be the first woman to fly around the world. Of course, she needed a lot of help to make this happen. She made a first attempt that failed and damaged her plane. But Earhart was not one to give up, so she made another attempt at the ground-breaking mission. She did make some progress by flying 7,000 miles to New Guinea but did not make it to her next stop, Howland Island. Sadly, Earhart’s plane disappeared, and, despite search and rescue attempts, she was never found. To this day, Earhart is known and celebrated for her bravery, persistence, and commitment to aviation.

Boston Tea Party

Eyewitness Account:

Joshua Wyeth


Joshua Wyeth was only 16 years old when he was a participant in the

Boston Tea Party. He reported the details of his adventurous night to a local

pastor. This first-hand account was found and published in a book edited by

Francis S. Drake. The full title of the book is Tea Leaves: Being a Collection

of Letters and Documents Relating to the Shipment of Tea to the American

Colonies in the year 1773, by the East India Tea Company.

1 Our numbers were between twenty-eight and thirty. . . . I had but a

few hours warning of what was intended to be done. We first talked of

[setting fire to] the ships, but feared the fire would [spread] to the

town. We then proposed sinking them, but dropped that [idea]

through fear that we should alarm the town before we could [finish.]

2 We had [noticed] that very few persons remained on board the

ships. So, we finally concluded that we could take possession of them,

and discharge the tea into the harbor without danger or opposition.

To prevent discovery, we agreed to [dress] to resemble Indians as

much as possible. [We smeared] our faces with grease and lamp black

or soot, and should not have known each other except by our voices.

Our most intimate friends among the spectators had not the least

knowledge of us.

3 At the appointed time, we met in an old building at the head of the

wharf. We fell in one after another, as if by accident, so as not to excite

suspicion. We placed a sentry at the head of the wharf, another in the

middle, and one on the bow of each ship as we took possession. We

boarded the ship moored by the wharf1

. Our leader, in a very stern and

resolute2

manner, ordered the captain and crew to open the hatchways.

[He ordered them to] hand us the hoisting tackle and ropes, assuring

them that no harm was intended them. The captain asked what we

intended to do. Our leader told him that we

were going to unload the tea, and ordered him

and the crew below. They instantly obeyed.

4 Some of our number then jumped into the

hold, and passed the chests to the tackle. As

they were hauled on deck, others knocked

them open with axes. Others raised them to

the railing and discharged their contents

overboard. All who were not needed for

discharging this ship went on board the

others, [tied] them to the wharf, where the

same ceremonies were repeated. We were

merry, in an undertone, at the idea of making

so large a cup of tea for the fishes. [But we]

were as still as the nature of the case would

admit, using no more words than were

absolutely necessary. We [moved quickly]

from the moment we left our dressing-room.

I never worked harder in my life.



Boston Tea Party Eyewitness Account:

John Andrews

1 Inhabitants: people who live in a certain area

2 Infernal: awful; related to the mythical world of the dead


3 They say the actors were Indians from Narragansett. To [an] observer

they appeared as such, being clothed in blankets, with their heads

[covered], and copper-colored [faces]. They were each armed with a

hatchet or axe, or pair of pistols, [and] their jargon3

was unintelligible to

all but themselves. Not the least insult was offered to any person save one

Captain Connor. [He] had [ripped] up the lining of his coat and waistcoat

under the arms, and . . . had nearly filled them with tea. [When

discovered, he] was handled pretty roughly. They not only stripped him

of his clothes, but gave him a coat of mud, with a severe bruising into the

bargain. Nothing but their utter aversion4

to making any disturbance

prevented his being tarred and feathered.

Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. "It's very good jam,” said the Queen. "Well, I don't want any TO-DAY, at any rate.” "You couldn't have it if you DID want it,” the Queen said. "The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday—but never jam to-day.” "It MUST come sometimes to ‘jam to-day,’” Alice objected. "No, it can't,” said the Queen. "It's jam every OTHER day: to-day isn't any OTHER day, you know.” This details from this excerpt provide evidence that the Queen is a kind ruler. the people of the mirror world enjoy jam. Alice understands the Queen’s rules. rules in the mirror world defy logic.
