Excerpt from The Fortune Teller
Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis
Hamlet observes to Horatio that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophy. This was the
selfsame explanation that was given by beautiful Rita to her lover, Camillo, on a certain Friday of November, 1869, when Camillo
laughed at her for having gone, the previous evening, to consult a fortune teller. The only difference is that she made her
explanation in other words,
"Laugh, laugh. That's just like you men; you don't believe in anything. Well, let me tell you, I went there and she guessed the
reason for my coming before I ever spoke a word. Scarcely had she begun to lay out the cards when she said to me: 'The lady
likes a certain person ... 'I confessed that it was so, and then she continued to rearrange the cards in various combinations, finally
telling me that I was afraid you would forget me, but that there were no grounds for my fear."
From the information in these paragraphs, what conclusion might one draw about the culture in which this story is set?
A
Women in this culture are beautiful.
B)
People in this culture are very easily bored.
Women in this culture laugh more than men.
D)
Men in this culture are more skeptical than women,

Stay not to answer me, but get thee gone.—
Why dost thou stay?

LUCIUS. To know my errand, madam.

PORTIA. I would have had thee there and here again5
Ere I can tell thee what thou shouldst do there.
[Aside] O constancy, be strong upon my side;
Set a huge mountain 'tween my heart and tongue.
I have a man’s mind, but a woman’s might.
How hard it is for women to keep counsel!10
[To LUCIUS] Art thou here yet?

LUCIUS. Madam, what should I do?
Run to the Capitol, and nothing else?
And so return to you, and nothing else?

PORTIA. Yes, bring me word, boy, if thy lord look well,
For he went sickly forth; and take good note15

What can you infer about Friar Laurence from the line in bold? (10 points)
JULIET
I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins,
That almost freezes up the heat of life:
I'll call them back again to comfort me:
Nurse! What should she do here?
My dismal scene I needs must act alone.
Come, vial.
What if this mixture do not work at all?
Shall I be married then to-morrow morning?
No, no: this shall forbid it: lie thou there.
What if it be a poison, which the friar
Subtly hath minister'd to have me dead,
Lest in this marriage he should be dishonour'd,
Because he married me before to Romeo?
I fear it is: and yet, methinks, it should not,
(For he hath still been tried a holy man.) *() in bold*
How if, when I am laid into the tomb,
I wake before the time that Romeo
Come to redeem me? there's a fearful point!
Shall I not, then, be stifled in the vault,
To whose foul mouth no healthsome air breathes in,
And there die strangled ere my Romeo comes?
Or, if I live, is it not very like, The horrible conceit of death and night, Together with the terror of the place
As in a vault, an ancient receptacle, Where, for these many hundred years, the bones Of all my buried ancestors are packed:
Where bloody Tybalt, yet but green in earth,
Lies festering in his shroud; where, as they say,
At some hours in the night spirits resort:- Alack, alack, is it not like that I, So early waking, what with loathsome smells, And shrieks like mandrakes' torn out of the earth,
That living mortals, hearing them, run mad:-
O, if I wake, shall I not be distraught,
Environed with all these hideous fears?
And madly play with my forefather's joints?
And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud?
And, in this rage, with some great kinsman's bone,
As with a club, dash out my desperate brains?
O, look! methiks I see my cousin's ghost
Seeking out Romeo, that did spit his body
Upon a rapier's point: stay, Tybalt, stay!
Romeo, I come! this do I drink to thee.

NEED HELP FAST
I could not today start out with any zest to see the most marvelous sight in the world unless I were taking with me someone to whom I knew the journey would be a joy. It may be a drawback which comes with age-you do not crave any new sensations and experiences as much as you did in youth-but it is one of its compensations that you are so much better able to enjoy through other people. You can even sit at home and be happy visualizing others that you love enjoying things which you have prepared them to see and to understand.

—“What I Hope to Leave Behind,”
Eleanor Roosevelt



Select the central idea of the passage.

Other people’s happiness is important to your own happiness.
People stop enjoying travel when they get older.
Sitting at home is fine because you have already seen and done everything.
Visualizing the sights you have already seen is just as good as seeing them again.

Noah began racing go-karts when he was just six years old. Noah has traveled to other states to race, win, and finish in the top five, an impressive accomplishment
for anyone but especially for a young driver. He now races a 1934 Ford Legends Coupe, a car that weighs 1.000 pounds and goes faster than 100 miles per hour.
Noah regularly competes against drivers who are three times older than he is, but he does not let that intimidate him. He explained in one news article. "I have been
racing against older people all my life. When you strap on a helmet, you are no longer a 13-year-old kid, you are a racecar driver. The other drivers don't treatme
like a kid. They treat me the same as the other drivers on the track." He has the nickname "Little Gator" partly because of his size and partly because of Gatorland's
sponsorship over the last several years.
In paragraph 2, Noah says, "I have been racing against older people all my life. When you strap on a helmet, you are no longer a 13-year-old kid, you are a racecar
Driver"
What is the implicit meaning of his words?
O Everyone on the racetrack is equal.
Older racers are embarrassed to compete against a kid.
l am very talented because I am able to race against adults.
