  9. Example: S1 O1 (1)To them this government has no just powers derived from the consent of the governed. (2)To them this government is not a democracy. (3)It is not a republic. (4)It is an odious aristocracy; a hateful oligarchy of sex; the most hateful aristocracy ever established on the face of the globe; an oligarchy of wealth, where the rich govern the poor. (5)An oligarchy of learning, where the educated govern the ignorant, or even an oligarchy of race, where the Saxon rules the African, might be endured; but this oligarchy of sex, which makes father, brothers, husband, sons, the oligarchs over the mother and sisters, the wife and daughters, of every household - which ordains all men sovereigns, all women subjects, carries dissension, discord, and rebellion into every home of the nation. • What is the best definition for the word oligarchy as used in sentence (4)? • An unequal form of government • A crazed group of individuals who have control • A form of government in which the people participate equally • A sense of exaggerated self-opinion

  10. Example: S1 O2 When and How to Display the U.S. Flag: Long may Old Glory wave by David Johnson The United States Flag Code stipulates that as the symbol of a living country, the flag is considered in itself a living thing and should be properly displayed and cared for. The code outlines the proper ways to display the American flag. • Raise the flag briskly. Lower it ceremoniously. • Never allow the flag to touch the ground or floor. • Do not fly the flag in bad weather, unless it is an all-weather flag. • The flag can only be flown at night if properly illuminated. Otherwise, it should only be flown from sunrise to sunset. • The flag should always be allowed to fall free. • The flag should never be used to carry, store, or deliver anything. • Never fly the flag upside down except to signal an emergency. Ceremonial When hung over a sidewalk on a rope extending from a building, the stars are always away from the building. When the flag is hung over a street running east to west, the stars are always toward the north. When the flag is hung over a street running north to south, the stars are always toward the east. When a group of flags is being displayed, the U.S. flag should be at the center and at the highest point. The only exception is when the flag of another nation is being flown—national flags should be of the same size and fly at the same height. When covering a casket, the stars should be at the head and over the left shoulder. The flag should never touch the ground or be lowered into the grave. Inside When on a speaker's podium, the flag should be either above and behind the speaker, or to the speaker's right as he faces the audience. When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union (blue field) should be uppermost and to the flag's right, that is, the observer's left. In a window, or suspended above a corridor, the flag should hang with the union on the viewer's left.

  11. A Microscope in the Kitchen I grew up with buckets, shovels, and nets waiting by the back door; hip-waders hanging in the closet; tide table charts covering the refrigerator door; and a microscope was sitting on the kitchen table. Having studied, my mother is a marine biologist. Our household might have been described as uncooperative. Our meals weren’t always served in the expected order of breakfast, lunch, and supper. Everything was subservient to the disposal of the tides. When the tide was low, Mom could be found down on the mudflats. When the tide was high, she would be standing on the inlet bridge with her plankton net.
