cion: How does where you live or where you call home shape the person you are?

As we shape our regional area through biological changes and colonial activities, so we collectively define its identity; in turn, as set locations for life, and hubs for gathering and activity, these places piece concurrently our own person, and collective, identities.

Neighbourhoods with shared goods, values, beliefs and attitudes enable us to live better, strive for more and concentrate on the outcomes we're looking for, developing a feeling of belonging, acceptance, knowledge and inspiration.

Thus, this could be the answer.

Read the excerpts from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry" and "Speaking Arabic."
My friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of
receiving a fellowship. He took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of
Spanish, English, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. In other words, he took the tortillas out of
his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.
At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican
Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, "I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel-so
lonely for one." And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.

Read the excerpt from The Metamorphoses by Ovid.

Jupiter, not thinking the punishment of Lycaon sufficient to strike terror into the rest of mankind, resolves, on account of the universal corruption, to extirpate them by a universal deluge. . . .

. . . The weapons forged by the hands of the Cyclops are laid aside; a different mode of punishment pleases him: to destroy mankind beneath the waves, and to let loose the rains from the whole tract of Heaven.

Read the excerpt from the adaptation "The Flood” by James Baldwin.

"These men,” [Jupiter] said to his mighty company, "are nothing but a source of trouble. When they were good and happy, we felt afraid lest they should become greater than ourselves; and now they are so terribly wicked that we are in worse danger than before. There is only one thing to be done with them, and that is to destroy them every one.”

So he sent a great rain-storm upon the earth.

Baldwin’s text shows that Jupiter has the support of the other gods, while Ovid’s text describes Jupiter acting alone to punish humans.
Ovid’s text uses an omniscient narrator to describe Jupiter’s motivation for punishing humans, while Baldwin’s text uses dialogue to present Jupiter’s reasoning.

Read this paragraph from The Dark Game.

It may seem surprising that no Confederate sympathizers took action against Van Lew, given her strong and public views on secession and slavery. Surely there were suspicions, especially among her upper-crust neighbors, but the matter never went beyond those suspicions. Historians have suggested that the secessionists were victims of their own cultural bias, believing that no aristocratic person, and certainly not a lady, would ever consider taking part in anything as impolite as spying. A true lady managed her servants, prepared parties and gatherings, and blindly supported her husband. Such attitudes worked in Van Lew's favor, diverting suspicion from her.

What central idea is implied in this paragraph?

Elizabeth Van Lew did not follow the rules society set forth for ladies of her time and social class.
Elizabeth Van Lew was a successful spy because society did not expect a lady to serve in that role.
Elizabeth Van Lew was able to disguise her spying activities because she kept her views about the war to herself.
Elizabeth Van Lew created for herself an untrue but believable cover story: she was a wealthy lady living in a fancy neighborhood.

Read the story Be the Best you Can Be:


Danny's bellowing voice carried across the field. "No! you need to pass the ball! Stop cradling it and pass!"


Danny was the team captain of the lacrosse team. He was one of the best players in the league. He was good, but he could be malicious. That morning, my playing technique was taking the brunt of Danny's harsh criticism.


"You really need to learn to pass better, Finn. you're letting the team down!"


Practice ended, and as Danny strode swiftly back toward the changing rooms, I hung my head and looked down at the green grass of the field. At the start of practice, the lush, green grass had made me smile. I relished being outside and playing lacrosse with my teammates. Sure, many of them were better than me, but I enjoyed the game and being part of a team. I was always the one cheering the loudest for my friends when they threw the ball across the goal line. I wished Danny would cheer for us instead of shouting callous things. It was starting to ruin the game so much for me that I was thinking of quitting.


Just then, there was another loud shout from across the field. This time, however, it was a shout of agony. I looked up and saw Danny. He was lying on the concrete ground in front of the change rooms, clutching his scraped knee. Without thinking twice, I ran to Danny's side to help.


"Are you okay?" I asked, bending down to comfort him. "Here, use my jersey to help clean your knee."


Danny looked up at me in surprise. He wasn't used to people being kind to him. Danny took the shirt as our coach arrived to help. The coach lifted Danny off the ground, steadied him on his feet, and helped him hobble into the change rooms. As I followed the others into the building, I realized that Danny hadn't even said thank you.


The next morning at practice, Danny was still in pain. He was limping and kept complaining of fatigue. The coach had suggested that Danny sit out of the practice games, which was making him meaner than ever. The other boys were trying to keep their distance from Danny, but I had an idea. My dad had taught me to be kind no matter what. He said kindness wasn't always in style but assured me that it was one of the most important things in life.


I walked over to Danny and the coach and said, "Coach? Maybe Danny can play goalie today. That way, he doesn't have to run, but he can still play with us. He's one of our strongest defenders, so I bet he'd make a great goalie!"


Surprise spread across Danny's face, followed quickly by a big smile.


"That's a great idea!" Danny exclaimed, looking at me with appreciation. "Please let me play, coach!"


The coach agreed, and Danny pushed himself off the bench gingerly. He shuffled over to me and extended his hand.


"Thanks so much, Finn," Danny said.


It was my turn to be surprised.


"You're a great teammate," Danny said. "I really need to try to be more like you. I just really want our team to be the best!"


"Me, too," I said. "If we look out for one other, I think we can be!"

A. At the start of practice, the lush, green grass had made me smile.

B. He was lying on the concrete ground in front of the change rooms.

C. I relished being outside and playing lacrosse with my teammates.
