Thanks, Coach!
Clark Benson

Josh helped one of the last guests to arrive to their seat at the banquet. He had taken the lead in organizing the whole event in honor of Coach Wilkins. Josh and the other players on the basketball team wanted to recognize Coach Wilkins for both his athletic achievements and his teaching accomplishments.

2Besides being Josh’s coach, Coach Wilkins was also his English teacher. Josh thought Coach Wilkins was a great teacher and basketball coach. In class, Coach Wilkins always used different techniques to make class interesting. For instance, Coach once told students to relate the books they read in class to their own lives. Thanks to Coach Wilkins, Josh was enthusiastic about reading; Josh’s shelves at home were filled with books.

3Coach supported each player and always had advice to give on the basketball court. Although Coach sometimes had to correct a player’s moves, he was never negative or belittling—Coach made everyone feel at ease.

The students and other teachers tried to make the school auditorium look as good as possible for the event. The cafeteria workers made the food for the occasion, and a large group of students worked to help make the banquet even more special.

5Josh and the other basketball players, who had just won the state championships, presented Coach with a special plaque. Josh admired the way the gold writing glistened under the lights. As nice as the plaque was, Josh was more eager to present Coach with a special card he had made. Each team member had written a personal message to their coach. Josh felt the card would be more meaningful to Coach because it was coming from his team and was filled with their own words.

6Principal Edwards agreed to be the head speaker and to introduce Coach Wilkins. The principal gave a very good speech about how Coach Wilkins had sacrificed his own free time to give more time to the school. He mentioned the sensational after-school tutoring program Coach Wilkins had started to help struggling students.

Finally, the big moment came and the principal introduced Coach Wilkins. The guests stood to show their appreciation for the teacher. They applauded as Coach Wilkins went to stage. He smiled and waved back to show how honored he was. Coach gave his thanks and spoke of the things which inspired him to be a teacher and coach. As he listened, Josh thought of what he had written on the card. There weren’t enough words to truly show how much Coach Wilkins had meant to him as both a teacher and coach. And so on the card, Josh had simply written,

“Thanks coach!” - Josh

A) by revealing the thoughts and actions of Josh
B) by revealing the thoughts and actions of Coach Wilkins
C) by revealing the thoughts and actions of Principal Edwards
D) by revealing the thoughts and actions of the cafeteria staff

What is the author's viewpoint in this excerpt?
Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective;" by Lorraine Jean
Hopping
The Hunley recovery team planned to display Diane's casts
in a museum that was about to be built. But did the casts
belong in a public exhibit? Some people objected to
displaying soldiers' remains-even though they were
plastic replicas. Diane saw nothing wrong with it. In fact,
she had no qualms about showing the real bones.
"If people want to really learn about the soldiers," she said,
"you have to show the bones. The bone is a record of a
person's life, especially the last part-the circumstances of
death."
How and why did the Hunley sink? What can we learn
about the lives--and deaths of its ill-fated crew?
Scientists will likely be investigating the answers for years
to come, thanks in part to Diane's casts.
1. The author disagrees with Diane France and her
decision to show the soldiers' bones at a museum.
2. The author appreciates Diane France for helping
scientists by making casts of the soldiers' bones.
3. The author believes that Diane France should have
in
done more to help the scientists understand the Hunley
submarine.
4. The author hopes Diane will use her skills on military
intelligence missions in the future.

Lines 11–18: What key concept does Soto develop? How do the sentences in these lines build on that idea?

Use this passage from the myth to answer the question.

Though Tū was not satisfied, the others liked this plan of action, and proceeded to try with all of their might to separate their parents. Rongo, the god of cultivated food and the harvest, pushed with all his might but could not budge his parents even an inch. Their love was strong, and such bonds are extremely difficult to break. His brothers Tangora, the god of the sea, and Haumia, the god of wild and uncultivated foods, joined him and offered their own strength. Together the three heaved with all of their might, straining the sinews of their arms until they collapsed in a heap, totally exhausted. Then Tū tried with all his might, using all of his ferocious strength until he fell to the ground with his brothers.

"It is impossible!" cried Tū. "We should kill them. There is no other way to be free."

"Not yet, brother," said Tāne. "Let me try." The god of forests and birds wedged himself between Rangi and Papa, his back to Papa and his feet against Rangi. Using his legs, he began to move the way trees grow in the forest. Slowly but surely, he pushed his legs upward until his parents were wrenched apart. Papa fell and became the Earth, while Rangi rose up to become the sky above. Light flooded into the world that had been created between Rangi and Papa. The brothers rejoiced, and were amazed to find that in the dark, they had birthed many children – the first humans! These offspring fell to Papa, and were warmly received by the Earth, their new home. Tāne, wanting to honor his father above, decorated Rangi with stars.
