Read this excerpt from "Herd about the Flu."
What is the main idea presented in this excerpt?
The flu shot helps prevent huge numbers of infections. Even
when it doesn't fully prevent infection in every person, the
shot makes any flu infection less serious. On a global scale,
the vaccine can reduce the number of infections only if most
people in the community take it. That's because vaccines
need to reach enough people to achieve a "herd immunity,"
the level of immunity needed to prevent the virus from
spreading. If too few people get the vaccine, the people who
receive it may not be well protected against infection.
So the next time you are at the drugstore, and you see No
Flu Shots Available, think about the reasons behind it. Drug
makers are scared to make too many flu shots because
they could lose too much money. They then make fewer flu
shots and the effect of the flu shots becomes weaker
because not enough people take it. People become more
reluctant to take the flu shot since they don't think it will fully
As fewer people get the flu virus, the flu shot becomes
less and less useful.
O As fewer people get the flu virus, the flu shot becomes
more and more useful.
O As fewer people get the flu shot, it becomes more
effective, but as more people get it, the flu shot becomes
less effective.
O As fewer people get the flu shot, it becomes less
effective, but as more people get it, the flu shot becomes
more effective.

What is Daisy telling us about Gatsby when she mentions never seeing such beautiful shirts before? (It has something to do with her husband, Tom)

It was my twelfth birthday. Thanks to my over-active imagination, I had convinced myself that my mom was going to get me a new skateboard. I could not contain my excitement. I really needed a new skateboard, and not because I was bored with my old one. My old skateboard was falling apart.

Upon waking up, I ran straight to my mom and asked her to give me my gift. She responded by telling me that I would have to wait until after I got home from school. She went on to say that if she told me what the gift was I would not be able to concentrate on my school work. Those words ensured that I would be so excited about getting my new skateboard that I would be unable to work.

After a whole day of counting down the minutes, I arrived home from school. My mom was nowhere to be found. I called her office but did not get an answer. She did not answer her cell phone either.

Just as my frustration was peaking, my mom pulled into the driveway. She stepped out of the car, asking, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

I excitedly blurted out, "You said I would get my present after school, and it is officially "after school.'"

"Oh, is that all? I assumed that you missed your dear mother," she teased. I later regretted my response. "No, that's not all! It's everything!" When I asked her where my gift was, she pointed at the J.C. Penney bag she held.

She told me, "It's a new suit for you to wear to church."

I muttered in disbelief, "But you said that if you told me about the gift, I would be thinking about it all day long."

My mom responded, "I didn't say you would be thinking about it because it's a great gift."
