Read the excerpt from "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?". But I fancy I hear some one of my audience say, “It is just in this circumstance that you and your brother abolitionists fail to make a favorable impression on the public mind. Would you argue more, and denounce less; would you persuade more, and rebuke less; your cause would be much more likely to succeed.” But, I submit, where all is plain there is nothing to be argued. What point in the anti-slavery creed would you have me argue? On what branch of the subject do the people of this country need light? Must I undertake to prove that the slave is a man? That point is conceded already. Nobody doubts it. Which statement best explains why this is an example of a counterclaim by Douglass?

Which excerpt from The Great Gatsby is the best example of foreshadowing?
. . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he had vanished, and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness.
Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can’t stop going with an old friend on account of rumors, and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage.
I said lightly that I had heard nothing at all, and a few minutes later I got up to go home. They came to the door with me and stood side by side in a cheerful square of light. As I started my motor Daisy peremptorily called: “Wait!”

Which choice is the best paraphrase of the text?

A. The types of stiff plastic needed in the manufacturing of “hard hats,” or hats that protect the heads of construction workers, were not available until after World War ll. For this reason, construction workers in 1930 either did not wear hats or wore cloth caps, often backward, or shabby felt hats.

B. Plastics to make hard hats were not available in the 1930s, so workers either did not wear hats or wore hats made from cloth or felt.

C. I would not have wanted to be a construction worker in 1930, because they were not given protective headwear. The kinds of plastics needed to make “hard hats” had not been invented yet, so construction work was more dangerous.

D. In 1930, these workmen either went bare­headed, wore a cloth cap—often worn backward—or wore a battered felt hat. The rigid plastics needed for molded head protection, called "hard hats," would not appear until after World War Il.
