Select the correct passage.
Which of these passages would most likely be part of an expository text?
Passage 1
What makes weather? Earth's temperature is partly responsible Water vapor in the air moves from one place to another depending on
temperature. Warm air rises, and cold air sinks. As the warm air around the equator rises, it moves toward the poles and is cooled. The cold air
around the poles also moves toward the equator. While this is happening, Earth is spinning. The spin of the planet is called its rotation. The
rotation of Earth is also important to weather. As Earth spins, the sun can warm only part of it at any one time. The other part faces away from
the sun. It is cooler. As a result, the rotation of Earth creates constantly changing temperatures
Passage 2
My plan is to refurbish cars and then turn around and sell them to people. There are a million cars that are dumped at wreckage lots, and I can
use the money I get from my summer job to buy a car and the parts I need for it. Junkyards are a gold mine for parts, and they are cheap there. I
can spend my free time putting the cars back together, and then I can sell the car to someone for a lot more than it cost me to fix it. I first
learned how to work on cars years ago with training from my uncle. He was an expert mechanic on his farm back in the 1930s. Learning from
him was one of the most beneficial and interesting experiences I had while living in California,

Passage 4
Until this moment, I had looked upon the valley as my grave. I had seen no possibility of getting out of it alive. But now I found courage and
began to plan my escape. First, I picked up all the large diamonds I could find and stored them in my leather bag. This I tied securely to my belt. I
then chose the piece of meat that seemed best for my purpose. With my turban i tied meat firmly to my back. This done, I laid face down and
awaited the coming of the eagles. I soon heard the flapping of their mighty wings above me. Then I had the joy of feeling one of them seize my
piece of meat, and me with it. We rose slowly toward its nest, into which it dropped me,
(from One Thousand and One Nights)

There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.

Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.

In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.

At the beginning of the story The Storyteller how does the bachelor feel about the children

On the Friday before winter break, Mrs. Lyon was out sick with a cold. So, Mr. Ridley substituted for the day. Most of the students in Mrs. Lyon's class were normally well-behaved. However, with the anticipation of the winter break, they became a little wild. While Mr. Ridley was writing on the dry erase board, Margo threw a paper airplane at his back. The class giggled as Mr. Ridley spun around to see who had thrown the paper airplane.
"Class! Throwing paper airplanes at a teacher is unacceptable and disrespectful. Who did that?" Mr. Ridley asked.
The students kept their mouths closed and sat up straight in their chairs. No one volunteered any information.
"Fine then, you will all stay in from recess until someone tells me who threw the airplane," Mr. Ridley said.
Mercy wiggled in her seat. She wanted to tell the teacher who threw the airplane, but she was afraid that the other students would call her a tattle tale.
Alan, the class clown, was thrilled that someone besides him had done something foolish. He would never tell. He would expect the same loyalty from his classmates.
Margo felt nervous. She wanted to confess and apologize to Mr. Ridley, but she was afraid that she would receive a harsh punishment. She wondered how long her classmates would protect her.
Jervis sat and drummed his fingers. He didn't see who threw the paper airplane, but he guessed that it had been Alan. He was tempted to raise his hand and tell the teacher that Alan was the responsible party, but he wasn't completely confident. He really wished that someone would tell who did it. It wasn't fair that the whole class was being punished for one person's mistake.
Rosania was happy that the class wasn't going to recess. She had terrible allergies and wanted to stay inside. She hoped that no one would say a word until recess time was over.
Mr. Ridley walked around the classroom looking at each student's face as he went by. He thought he detected sweat and shaking when he walked by Fred. He wondered if Fred was the culprit. However, Fred just needed to use the restroom but was afraid to ask.
"Fred, you seem a bit anxious. What is it you want to tell me?" Mr. Ridley asked.
"Nothing, sir. I-I need to use the restroom," Fred stammered.
"No one is leaving this room until I find out who threw that airplane at me," Mr. Ridley said.
Margo could not allow her classmates to suffer any longer.
"It was me! I threw it! I'm sorry, Mr. Ridley," Margo said as she burst into tears.
Mr. Ridley hated to see children cry. He rushed over to Margo and gently patted her back.
"I forgive you. Don't cry," Mr. Ridley said.
"I was just being silly. I didn't mean to disrespect you," Margo sniffled.
"We will forget all about it. Let's enjoy the rest of our day together. Because you were honest, we will all play games for the rest of the day," Mr. Ridley announced.

Resolution
by A. Gautam
The new year begins on a set of old promises.
I look at my list crumpled in my fist.
A carefully torn page, inside my wishful cage—
It is the same yellow as the year before,
Twelve things that could change my life.
I can see the cursive letters when I close my eyes.
There my past remains, here my future lies.
I resolve again, to give my old ambitions a refreshed try.

We were not regularly allowanced. Our food was coarse corn meal boiled. This was called MUSH. It was put into a large wooden tray or trough, and set down upon the ground. The children were then called, like so many pigs, and like so many pigs they would come and devour the mush; some with oyster-shells, others with pieces of shingle, some with naked hands, and none with spoons. He that ate fastest got most; he that was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied. Which detail from the passage is evidence that the slave children were not fed enough?
