From the excerpt, why do you think Squeaky runs the relay all by herself?
There is no track meet that I don’t win the first-place medal. I used to win the twenty yard dash when I was a little kid in kindergarten. Nowadays, it’s the fifty-yard dash. And tomorrow I’m subject to run the quarter-meter relay all by myself and come in first, second, and third. The big kids call me Mercury cause I’m the swiftest thing in the neighborhood. Everybody knows that—except two people who know better, my father and me. He can beat me to Amsterdam Avenue with me having a two-fire-hydrant headstart and him running with his hands in his pockets and whistling. But that’s private information. Cause can you imagine some thirty-five-year-old man stuffing himself into PAL shorts to race little kids? So as far as everyone’s concerned, I’m the fastest and that goes for Gretchen, too, who has put out the tale that she is going to win the first-place medal this year. Ridiculous. In the second place, she’s got short legs. In the third place, she’s got freckles. In the first place, no one can beat me and that’s all there is to it.

Answers

Answer 1

When Squeaky was in kindergarten, she ran a 20-meter race all by herself: "There is no track meet that I don’t win the first-place medal. I used to win the twenty yard dash when I was a little kid in kindergarten." So running this race may not be all that different to her since she seems to be an Independent person who prefers to race solo.

The numbers that Major Tallmadge assigned to members of the Culper Ring were from a secret writing system he invented. He substituted digits for words that would be used in messages. "Long Island," for example, was 728, "arms" was 7, and "city" was 88. There was a number for each month, such as 341 for "January." He made four copies of his codes. He kept one and gave the others to Woodhull, Townsend, and General Washington. For words that did not have a number code, Tallmadge gave his agents a cipher. In a cipher, each letter in a message is replaced by another letter or a number.

The author’s purpose in this excerpt is to

teach readers about a code system used during the American Revolution.
persuade readers that ciphers are the greatest American invention.
argue that Major Tallmadge made a mistake in sharing copies of his codes.
compare the American codes for secret letters to the British codes.

Do you believe that as society changes the definition being an American changes? Explain your view and give examples.

Answers

Yes, the definition of being an american changes, because the world is ever changing and we are finding out new things about our past, as well as our future. for starters, legally, you have to be here for 5 years before you are an american citizen, or be born on american soil. but, many people have different opinions on what, subjectively, “truly” makes you an american. for example, some believe that to be a true american, you must vote to change our country’s direction of where it’s headed in the future. others believe that you are not a true american if you are not native american. others may believe that you are not american if you were not born here. society’s views on what makes someone a “true” american is always changing, and it’s different for every person. (insert your view here).
Yes,as America changes Americans change themselves;thus the definition of “being an American” changes. For example year ago a “American family” was seen as a working father, a stay at home wife, and child/ren. Modern day versions of American family’s are very diverse. Women can be the bread winner, there are stay at home dads, and there are even same sex couples. As America’s society changes the definition of American changes with it

Question 3(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

Read the paragraph. Then answer the question that follows.

Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people.
