Read the excerpt from "The Three Questions" by Leo Tolstoy. All the answers being different, the King agreed with none of them, and gave the reward to none. But still wishing to find the right answers to his questions, he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom. The hermit lived in a wood which he never quitted, and he received none but common folk. So the King put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone. When the King approached, the hermit was digging the ground in front of his hut. Seeing the King, he greeted him and went on digging. The hermit was frail and weak, and each time he stuck his spade into the ground and turned a little earth, he breathed heavily. The King went up to him and said: "I have come to you, wise hermit, to ask you to answer three questions: How can I learn to do the right thing at the right time? Who are the people I most need, and to whom should I, therefore, pay more attention than to the rest? And, what affairs are the most important, and need my first attention?" The hermit listened to the King, but answered nothing. He just spat on his hand and recommenced digging. "You are tired," said the King, "let me take the spade and work awhile for you." Which paragraphs from the excerpt best support the conclusion that the author’s primary purpose is to teach a lesson? Select two options. “All the answers being different, the King agreed with none of them, and gave the reward to none. But still wishing to find the right answers to his questions, he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom.” “The hermit lived in a wood which he never quitted, and he received none but common folk. So the King put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone.” “When the King approached, the hermit was digging the ground in front of his hut.

In this excerpt from a speech given to a Senate Committee, Congresswoman Patsy Mink of Hawaii, presents her reasons as to why Congress should not approve the proposed bill, which sought to declare English as the official language of the United States.

(1) Mr. Chairman, thank you for the opportunity to appear today to speak against S. 356, which seeks to declare English as the official language of the United States Government.

(2) According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 97 percent of Americans currently speak English "well" or "very well." Even among those immigrants who come to this country speaking other languages, most passionately desire to be proficient in English--for their own economic survival and to secure economic opportunity for their children. Today's immigrants are learning English faster than previous generations of immigrants; English classes are in such high demand that some stay open 24 hours a day, and statistics show that waiting lists are as long as 40 to 50 thousand. If this is so, why do we need a law to declare English to be our official language? It already is!

(3) So maybe the reason for this bill is to save printing costs. A recent GAO report found that a mere six one-hundredths of one percent of federal documents produced since 1990 are in languages other than English; this works out to be only 256 out of 400,000 federal documents. I would also point out that most of those non-English documents were created to serve the Spanish-speaking residents of Puerto Rico. So I guess it is not the cost of publishing in other languages that justifies this limitation.

(4) There is no evidence that this nation is threatened by "division among linguistic lines." English is far and away our nation's dominant, common language. There is no threat that English will be subsumed as a minor language. S356 has the potential of creating unwarranted1 division in this country. S356 is touted as a way to bolster the national unity but I am troubled by the divisiveness it will create.

(5) How will making English our official language promote unity when thousands of legal, tax-paying immigrants and citizens will be denied a fuller opportunity to gain needed information and services because they are of limited English? What is the overwhelming public policy need to punish the few?

(6) The right to benefit from their government should not be limited by language barriers. Language communication via radio, television, and written material is essential for a basic understanding of an already intimidating political process for many non-native English speakers.

(7) Under S.356, in my role as a government official, my hands would be tied when dealing with my own constituents2 for many of whom English is a second language. To suggest that I cannot represent those constituents to the best of my ability and will be forced to essentially exclude them from the political process through English-only written communication is preposterous3 and insulting. The Constitution of the United States guarantees freedom of speech. Nowhere does it say that it has to be in English. If we enact this bill it will be a limitation of our free society.

(8) The strength of our nation has always been its diversity. The right of each person to seek information from their government should not be limited by restrictions on the provider. To forsake immigrants this right is to deny the very principle on which this country was built, which is free and open access to our elected officials and our government.

(9) S. 356 would also specifically prohibit Native American federal employees or officials from communicating with the native population in their native language, even though it would be a more effective means of communication. In addition it could restrict the use of native languages by tribes and native organizations in implementing federal programs. It is clear that this legislation runs directly counter to overall efforts to preserve and promote the culture and history of the Native Americans. . . .

(10) For a bill which has no ostensible4 purpose or meets no urgent need, the price is too great. I urge the Committee to reject it.

How does the author unfold her argument in paragraph 2?

A.
by giving historical examples that reveal how official languages are divisive and un-American
B.
by describing the likely outcomes of having an official language using other countries as examples
C.
by providing evidence that shows how popular and widespread English-language ability already is
D.
by explaining how a single language would hurt immigrants by limiting their basic human rights

Which passage from “The Last Dream” is not based on historical records or sources?

a) It scared her to think how quickly someone's life could change. Just three years ago the celebrated aviator had married the writer Anne Morrow. Then, a year later, in 1930, the Lindberghs had their first child, Charles Jr.
b) She'd had the dream again, the one that had haunted her ever since the news of the kidnapping first came out. That was about two weeks ago: March 1, 1932—two days before her fifteenth birthday.
c) Maggie sat up, climbed from the bed, and drew on her robe. She curled up on the window seat overlooking the yard. Beyond the trees the night sky seemed full of diamonds.
d) It was strange to think that the baby's father—or anyone else—had flown through that dark, sparkling expanse. He was the famous Charles Lindbergh, the first human being ever to fly a plane nonstop across the Atlantic Ocean. That solo flight in 1927, from New York to Paris, dazzled the world and brought international fame to Lindbergh, who was known thereafter as “The Lone Eagle.”

Health care is one of the most hotly debated issues in the United States today, and it’s easy to see why. Approximately 50 million people living in the United States either lack health insurance entirely or are inadequately covered. These people’s health and financial security are at risk. My brother Bob knows all about this risk – his first child was born with a damaged heart. The cost of the treatment was so high that Bob had to declare bankruptcy. It seems so obvious that health care should be available to all, regardless of their ability to pay. It’s just common sense.
