A wrestler's ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each
wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the
tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his
ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament
is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the
rankings as the typical victory.

Read the excerpt from Roosevelt’s "Four Freedoms" speech.

I have called for personal sacrifice. I am assured of the willingness of almost all Americans to respond to that call.

A part of the sacrifice means the payment of more money in taxes. In my Budget Message I shall recommend that a greater portion of this great defense program be paid for from taxation than we are paying today. No person should try, or be allowed, to get rich out of this program; and the principle of tax payments in accordance with ability to pay should be constantly before our eyes to guide our legislation.

What argument is Roosevelt supporting with his appeal to logic in the underlined section of the excerpt?

If Americans are willing to trust Roosevelt, it only makes sense that he will ensure that the tax money is well managed.
If Americans are willing to make a personal sacrifice, it only makes sense that they will be seen as both noble and patriotic.
If Americans feel it is right to enter the war, it only makes sense that they will have to pay more in taxes to cover the costs.
If Americans feel it is right to pay more taxes, it only makes sense that they should also agree it is right to enter the war.

Read the passage from "The Most Dangerous Game.”

"Rainsford!" screamed the general. "How in God's name did you get here?"

"Swam," said Rainsford. "I found it quicker than walking through the jungle."

The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."

Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."

The general made one of his deepest bows. "I see," he said. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed. On guard, Rainsford." . . .

He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.

Which statement best describes how Rainsford solves his moral dilemma in this passage?

Although he believes that murder is wrong, Rainsford chooses to kill the general and end the game for good.
Instead of killing others or himself, Rainsford lets the general win the game but takes his bed.
Rainsford does not smile even though he is thrilled that he won the game.

It was said that my New York license plates would arouse interest and perhaps questions, since they were the only outward identifying marks I had. And so they did – perhaps twenty or thirty times in the whole trip. But such contacts followed an invariable pattern, somewhat as follows: Local man: "New York, huh?" Me: "Yep." Local man: "I was there in nineteen thirty-eight – or was it thirty-nine? Alice, was it thirty-eight or thirty-nine we went to New York?" Alice: "It was thirty-six. I remember because it was the year Alfred died." Local man: "Anyway, I hated it. Wouldn't live there if you paid me." What does this conversation show about the people whom the author meets? People treat others differently when they come from big cities. People’s curiosity about where Steinbeck is from does not last very long. People in the United States are very curious about where others live. People are very suspicious of visitors from New York.
