1.) Leah read these two reviews of the same book:

1) Long Decade Lost tells the story of a returning war veteran and his struggle to adapt to civilian life. The book’s structure includes out-of-order events and constantly changing narrators, both of which can be effective literary devices, but they do nothing to improve this book. I lost all hope of enjoying the book after reading only ten pages.

2) Only ten pages into Long Decade Lost, I was completely absorbed. It’s a challenging book; narrators fade in and out, and events occur out of order. But the book’s chaotic structure reflects the chaos in the mind of the main character, a traumatized war veteran navigating peacetime.

Which of the following statements best describes a point of conflict, or disagreement, between these reviews?

A.) They disagree on the book’s subject.
B.) They disagree on the book’s structure.
C.) They disagree on whether the book’s structure is purposeful.
D.) They disagree on how many pages it took to reach a conclusion about the
book.

2.) While researching immigration to the U. S. in the 1800s, Cecil reads these two texts:

Text 1: New arrivals traveling in first or second class disembarked in Manhattan and were allowed to enter the U. S. without a physical examination. Third-class “steerage” passengers, on the other hand, were sent on barges to Ellis Island, where they endured thorough exams that tested their physical and mental health.

Text 2: Only immigrants traveling in third class actually went through Ellis Island. Once there, they were given an invasive medical and psychological exam. First- or second-class immigrants were given a brief examination when their ships arrived in Manhattan and then permitted to leave the ship and go through Customs.

What is the point of difference, or conflict, between these texts?

A.
They differ on the classes of immigrants sent to Ellis Island.
B.
They differ on the types of exams given to third-class passengers.
C.
They differ on where first- and second-class passengers entered the U. S.
D.
They differ on whether first- and second-class passengers were examined before entering the U. S.

Which two elements does this excerpt from a christmas carol by charles dickens contain? "a small matter," said the ghost, “to make these silly folks so full of gratitude." "small! " echoed scrooge. the spirit signed to him to listen to the two apprentices, who were pouring out their hearts in praise of fezziwig: and when he had done so, said, "why! is it not? he has spent but a few pounds of your mortal money: three or four perhaps. is that so much that he deserves this praise? " "it isn’t that," said scrooge, heated by the remark, and speaking unconsciously like his former, not his latter, self. "it isn't that, spirit. he has the power to render us happy or unhappy; to make our service light or burdensome; a pleasure or a toil. say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count ’em up: what then? the happiness he gives, is quite as great as if it cost a fortune." he felt the spirit's glance, and stopped. "what is the matter? " asked the ghost. "nothing particular," said scrooge. "something, i think? " the ghost insisted. "no," said scrooge, "no. i should like to be able to say a word or two to my clerk just now. that's all."
