1. Jackson uses descriptive language, such as "pecuniary advantages," while Rutledge's account is dominated by direct language, such as "My father looks tired." How do you think this difference may relate to the different audiences the two authors were addressing? What was the purpose of each author? 2. What is another difference you notice between the styles of the two works? It might help to read a paragraph or two of each aloud. What effect does this difference have on the tone of the writing?

3. Authors do not necessarily share the feelings of their characters. Do you think Michael Rutledge hates white people the way Samuel does at the end of this passage? Use evidence from the text to support your answer.

Read the excerpt from "mother tongue." lately, i’ve been giving more thought to the kind of english my mother speaks. like others, i have described it to people as “broken” or “fractured” english. but i wince when i say that. it has always bothered me that i can think of no other way to describe it other than “broken,” as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness and soundness. what best supports the inference that tan believes nonstandard english is no less valid than standard english? tan spends a lot of time thinking about her mother’s “fractured” english. tan has trouble thinking of descriptive words when she is writing. tan’s american education makes it difficult for her to understand her mother. tan winces when she describes her mother’s english as “broken.”

Read each of the following statements and place a checkmark next to each true statement: test-makers give away answers to questions in other questions. a test-taker should check every 20 answers or so to make sure the questions and answers match. long passages on tests should be read quickly to save time. words like best, least, and worst require the test-taker to make judgments about the correct answer. test-takers should not try to answer the questions in their minds before reading over the answer choices. test-makers use the same letter three or four times in a row to trick test-takers.
