adapted from White Fang
by Jack London

And then she found the thing for which she sought. It was a few miles up a small stream that in the summer time flowed into the Mackenzie, but that then was frozen over and frozen down to its rocky bottom—a stream of solid white from source to mouth. The she-wolf was trotting wearily along when she came upon the overhanging, high clay-bank. . . The wear and tear of spring storms and melting snows had under-washed the bank and in one place had made a small cave out of a narrow fissure.
She paused at the mouth of the cave and looked the wall over carefully. Then, on one side and the other, she ran along the base of the wall to where its abrupt bulk merged from the softer-lined landscape. Returning to the cave, she entered its narrow mouth. . . It was dry and cozy. She inspected it with painstaking care, while her companion, who had returned, stood in the entrance and patiently watched her. She dropped her head, with her nose to the ground and directed toward a point near to her closely bunched feet, and around this point she circled several times; then, with a tired sigh that was almost a grunt, she curled her body in, relaxed her legs, and dropped down, her head toward the entrance. . . Her own ears laid their sharp points backward and down against the head for a moment, while her mouth opened and her tongue lolled peaceably out, and in this way she expressed that she was pleased and satisfied.

I was Hoo-lee-tah only to Mami and Papi and uncles and aunts who came over to eat sancocho on Sunday afternoons – old world folk whom I would just as soon go back to where they came from and leave me to pursue whatever mischief I wanted to in America.

Use the excerpt from the story "True Reign" to answer the question.


Liana’s hands had been in the hot dishwater for so long, her fingertips were puckered. Blowing a strand of damp hair from her face, she wiped crusted food off a platter and handed it to Winnie, who struggled to keep up with the drying. Poor Winnie. At 14, she was just one year younger than Liana, but she was so skinny, she looked only 10. Sometimes, Liana snuck her food from her own plate, but they all got so little, there wasn’t much to share. Now, Cook clanged two pots into the basin, splashing Liana’s apron, which was already soaked.

“Winnie!” Cook yelled, one large hand holding a bowl of whipped cream. “Get yourself out to the dining room and help clear the dinner dishes!”

Liana watched Winnie go, wishing Cook had sent her, instead. The Prince was in the dining room this very minute. But Liana had a plan to set eyes on him one way or the other. She schemed as she scrubbed and scoured and sweated.

Suddenly, a girl’s scream came from the dining room. Then the double doors banged open and Mrs. Thorpe entered, dragging a girl by the shoulder. It was Winnie. All the color had drained from her face, and she could barely walk.

“You’re worthless!” Mrs. Thorpe shouted at her. “Can’t even bus dishes without getting in your own way.” She gave Winnie a little shove, letting go of her shoulder. Winnie crumpled to the floor—but Liana, who was coming toward the commotion, caught her.

Gently, Liana lowered her to the floor. “You’re burned! She’s burned,” Liana said to the innkeeper, examining Winnie’s arm, where a large red welt was already starting to blister. “How did this happen?”

“Girl didn’t have the good sense to step out of the way of a hot pan,” said Mrs. Thorpe. The innkeeper shifted her glare to Liana. “And you’ll find out soon enough what happens to girls who take that tone with me. Don’t you have a job to do?”

In Liana’s arms, Winnie was whining softly. “It’s all right, Winnie,” Liana whispered.

Now, the innkeeper leaned down to grab Liana’s arm. “I said—”

“Excuse me?” A young man was standing at the doors, which were still propped open. The innkeeper straightened, drawing in a breath as she realized the kitchen was in full view. “My sergeant has a salve that should ease the girl’s burn.”

“Thank you,” said Liana. The man was tall, with dark hair that curled to his shoulders and piercing green eyes. His trousers and tunic were simply styled, but well-made of rich, purple cloth. The buckles on his tall brown boots were forged in real silver.

“Thank you, my Lord,” said Cook, bending down to sweep Winnie into her arms. Bowing her head, she gave a brief curtsy. “This kitchen’s got no shortage of salve.” Cook turned to whisper in Winnie’s ear. “Cook will take care of you now, lovey.”

As Cook trudged from the kitchen, Liana stood, noticing for the first time that everything around her had stopped. The kitchen girls, the busboys, even the innkeeper stood, turned toward the man in the doorway, their heads bowed.

“Liana!” hissed one of the girls.

Liana looked around, then back at the man, who was staring at her, a half-smile on his lips. An amused look sparkled in his eyes. And then it dawned on her. She had laid eyes on the Prince, after all. Horrified, she bowed her head, giving herself a view of her soaked apron and general disorderly appearance. Keeping her head lowered, she snuck a look up at the Prince through her bedraggled hair.

He was still looking at her—and then he spoke to her. “What’s your name?”

Read the excerpt from "How I Learned English.”

So it was not impossible that I,
Banished to the outfield and daydreaming
Of water, or a hotel in the mountains,
Would suddenly find myself in the path
Of a ball stung by Joe Barone.
I watched it closing in
Clean and untouched, transfixed
By its easy arc before it hit
My forehead with a thud.

Read the excerpt from "We Are All Bound Up Together” by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper.

In advocating the cause of the colored man, since the Dred Scott decision, I have sometimes said I thought the nation had touched bottom. But let me tell you there is a depth of infamy lower than that. It is when the nation, standing upon the threshold of a great peril, reached out its hands to a feebler race, and asked that race to help it, and when the peril was over, said, You are good enough for soldiers, but not good enough for citizens.

What is emphasized by Harper’s word choice and syntax in the underlined portion of this excerpt?

the danger faced by Black soldiers
the bravery of the Black soldiers
the unfairness of the way Black Americans are treated
the anger of Black Americans after they return from war

Describe the characters, setting, and plot of the novel. Who would be the protagonist, or main character, of your story? What qualities would this character have? Do you possess any of these qualities? Do you wish you had any of these qualities.
