Select the correct answer.
Our mountain regions are unique and beautiful places. We must preserve them for future generations. One of the most serious threats to our mountains is ridgetop development. Large housing developments built on steep slopes and along mountain ridges are unsightly. Also, they adversely affect the scenic views that draw tourists to our region each year. Who wants to drive to the mountains to see not the lovely tree-covered outline of the gently sloping mountain ridges against the sky, but rows of houses jutting from the ridges and slopes with little or no tree cover between them? With tourism as the biggest industry in our area, maintaining our scenic ridgelines is crucial to continued economic success here.
Ridgetop development not only detracts from scenic mountain views and threatens our area’s top industry, it also harms the environment. Stripping large areas to create multiple building sites removes the trees and other plants. These resources provide natural erosion barriers on steep slopes. Large housing developments on ridges often increase erosion and runoff into streams and rivers.

Miranda sat in the high school computer lab typing like mad. It was 8:30 a.m., and her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye was due at 9:00. For the past hour, she had been flipping through the ratty pages of the old paperback trying to discern the major plot points and then typing out a few sentences that she hoped were logical. The only reason she was able to get into the lab that early was because she was one of Mrs. Brody’s assistants, but a couple of hours in the lab didn’t make up for weeks of zoning out in English class.

Miranda could kick herself, but she was too busy skimming through her notes and attempting to remember something—anything!—that Mr. Giuffreda had talked about. Mr. Giuffreda was a tough grader, and Miranda did not work well under pressure—not a great combination. On top of all that, Miranda could hear her mother’s voice in her head: “One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team.” Miranda failed to see the relationship between soccer and book reports, but she also knew her mother wasn’t kidding. When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month. Another time, when Miranda had missed her curfew—again and again—she had gotten grounded for two weeks.

Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?

At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.

What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Miranda will ask Mr. Giuffreda for an extension.
B. Miranda did not finish her book report on time.
C. Miranda will no longer be Mrs. Brody's assistant.
D. Miranda usually does a lot better in English class.

The Railway Train
Emily Dickinson, 1896

I like to see it lap the miles,
And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then, prodigious, step

Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads;
And then a quarry pare

To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill

And neigh like Boanerges1;
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop—docile and omnipotent—
At its own stable door.

The Art of Making Pizza

Pizza is a scrumptious and mouthwatering dish that requires no introduction. It is one of the most popular foods around the globe today. It is a dish that can be enjoyed as a snack and can also be eaten as a family meal. While everyone knows how delicious a pizza is, not everyone is aware of the effort that goes into creating this mouthwatering piece of art.
Pizza is said to have originated in Greece. However, the Greek pizza was more like a flatbread without any topping. The modern-day pizza, on the other hand, originated in Italy. The story goes that King Umberto I and Queen Margherita were on their way to Naples after the unification of Italy in 1861. They demanded a change from their usual meals and were presented with an assortment of pizzas. The type of pizza that Queen Margherita enjoyed the most had a topping of red tomatoes, green basil, and soft white cheese. This variety of pizza thus came to be known as pizza Margherita. However, the art of pizza making was little known beyond the borders of Naples. It was only after the 1940s that pizza making spread like wildfire, and different cultures across continents adopted it, adding their own flavors to make it more appealing to the local public. Pizza evolved from a simple flatbread with a melted cheese topping to a dish with several varieties and all kinds of toppings.
Making a pizza may seem simple, but that is far from the truth. A good pizza isn't simply about kneading dough, adding toppings, and baking. To make a delicious pizza, one needs to be passionate about the process involved in creating it. One of the key factors in creating a delicious pizza is to use fresh ingredients. Pizza toppings should be farm fresh and tasty. No compromises should be made with the ingredients, especially the cheese. Cheese is what gives pizza its essential flavor, and only the best quality cheese should be used. The next important factor is the pizza dough, which needs to be at the right temperature and of the right quantity, and flattened correctly to make a smooth and even layer. The final and most important part of creating the perfect pizza is baking it at the right temperature. The result, if all goes well, is a perfectly cooked base topped with delicious melted cheese and garnished with a choice of ingredients. Ultimately, whether pizza is a thin crust, deep dish, or the New York slice, its history and the art of creating it remains marvelous.
