Use the poem to answer the question.
I sit and stare out my window
Watching the rain pour down
Wishing I could escape below
And ride my bike into town.
Shadows crawl up my wall;
It feels like the whole day is gone.
I’ll sit and watch the nighttime fall
And just sleep away until dawn.

Use the two passages to answer the question.
Have you ever seen a sea turtle, whale, shark, or dolphin? Even if you have only seen pictures online, you can see how cute all of these creatures are. Well, they are in danger. So many of them are killed every year because of plastic waste. From people throwing away single-use water bottles to companies using a ton of plastic to make their products, we can all do better. Scientists are finding creatures like fish and sea birds with their stomachs filled with indigestible plastic. We have to change this, starting today!
Oceans cover 71 percent of Earth’s surface, and they are where most of Earth’s water comes from. Because of this, they are one of our greatest natural resources. Unfortunately, around 8 million metric tons of plastic enters our oceans each year. We all need to do more to save our oceans from this type of pollution. Fortunately, there are groups like the Ocean Conservancy, Oceana, and the Lonely Whale Foundation. They are all dedicated to helping this issue.
A student is researching the impact of plastic waste. Write a paragraph that compares and contrasts the two passages. Explain which passage would be better for the student to use and why.
(4 points)
Both passages describe the impact of plastic waste on the environment, specifically in the ocean. The first passage focuses on the effects of plastic waste on sea creatures such as sea turtles, whales, sharks, and dolphins. The second passage highlights the importance of oceans as a natural resource and the amount of plastic waste that enters them annually. Both passages aim to raise awareness about the impact of plastic waste, but they present different viewpoints. The first passage is more emotional and vivid, whereas the second passage is more factual and informative. For a student researching the impact of plastic waste, the second passage would be more helpful as it provides more specific information about the issue and organizations dedicated to helping it. It also presents a more balanced perspective on the issue and can be used as a source of reliable information.
Write a 3-5 sentence paragraph comparing and contrasting the text and film versions of a book, story, play or poem. Describe the main similarities and differences you noticed between the film and text versions.(4 points)
The text and film versions of a story often have significant differences, but also share common elements. Both versions usually have the same plot, setting, and characters, but the film may condense, omit or add scenes or characters to fit the limitations of a visual medium. Film adaptations also have the added dimension of visual and auditory elements, such as music, sound effects, lighting, and cinematography, which can enhance or change the tone, mood, and meaning of the story. The text version, however, provides more freedom for the reader's imagination, extends the story through internal monologues, and allows a deeper understanding of characters by describing their thoughts and emotions. Overall, both versions provide unique experiences and offer different perspectives on the story.
Benjamin is giving a presentation about World War I. He wants to use a movie clip of a war scene and interview his neighbor whose great uncle fought in World War I. Write a 3-5 sentence paragraph explaining why Benjamin should rethink using these sources, and what he should use to replace them.(4 points)
Using a movie clip of a war scene to represent World War I may not be the best choice because movies often depict battle scenes that are unrealistic, exaggerated, or glorified. It could also be insensitive to veterans and their families or trivialize the devastating effects of war. Similarly, interviewing a neighbor whose great uncle fought in World War I may not provide an accurate and unbiased account of the event. Instead, Benjamin could use more reliable sources such as primary and secondary historical sources, documentaries, or testimonies from World War I veterans, that provide factual and objective information about the war. These sources can offer a more nuanced and authentic perspective on the event and help the audience better understand its historical significance.

Write a 3-5 sentence paragraph comparing and contrasting the text and film versions of a book, story, play or poem. Describe the main similarities and differences you noticed between the film and text versions.(4 points)
The film and text versions of a story have similarities as well as differences. While the text version allows readers to use their imagination to picture the scenes, characters, and events described, the film version has the ability to demonstrate and emphasize these elements with visual and audio effects. A significant difference between the two is the time to develop plot and characters. In the text version, there is more room and flexibility to explore these elements and to develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of the story, while in the film version, the focus often tends to be more on the action and the visual aspects. Additionally, the film version may omit or modify certain parts of the story for various reasons such as the time and cost of production and appeal to a wider audience. Despite these differences, both the text and film versions can offer a rich and enjoyable experience and help communicate the author's message to the audience in its own unique way.
