Read the passage A New Place
Cameron leaped off the bus and searched frantically for 515 Barclay Boulevard. His brand new dress shoes the kind people wore mostly to
family gatherings, pounded the sidewalks, Cameron maneuvered between harried, purposeful businesspeople, all of whom appeared to know their
exact destinations
Cameron peered at the street signs, simultaneously smoothing his tie and checking for creases in his suit. His eyes flicked to his watch9:37
am-and he needed to be there by 10:00. Barclay Boulevard was supposed to be two blocks from the bus stop, and he had already walked for six
or was it seven?
He doubled back to the bus stop at the corner of Lexington and Boylston, then down a side street he had overlooked. Enormous silver
lettering practically screamed "515," and Cameron unthinkingly plowed through everyone between him and the silver lettering.
As he stood before the doors, his sweaty fist gripped the handle on his bag. He did a quick check: Did he have something to write
with did he have his résumé and letter of recommendation ... was there anything else he needed? With five minutes to spare, Cameron took a
deep breath walked inside and asked the way to Mr. Liam's office.
What can the reader mostly infer about Cameron?
1. He is extremely disorganized.
2
He is afraid to have a meeting with Mr. Liam.
3. He is very bad at reading directions to new places.
4. He is nervous about getting to a job interview on time,

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

it was the fourth thursday of november and cassey headed down to the woods to pick up the mushrooms mother had told her to to complement the turkey the family was going to have as they did every day.

she usually sweapt the floors and went for water, but today that task was asked to her younger sister since matthew, the only boy, had gone to the town with father in order to find cheap fabrics to make clothes.

the shoe business was not being as profitable as before, so they had decided to make clothes to sell in the village.

today there would not be time to play with mary, her neighbour and friend, to play to be still in water, a game that was not only part of the fun in the village, but also very useful if there happened to be an acciddent when she had to cross the shore by boat, as she had to at least twice a week to visit grandma.

bored and uninterested in the task she had been imposed to do, cassey started to pull up the best mushrooms she could see. suddenly, something hard was found by her tender fingers. she couldn't believe her eyes: a gold ring crowned by a diamond appeared between her fragile fingers

before she had time to think what to do, a deep voice spoke at her back.

- i heard your mum asking you to pick up mushrooms for the turkey - said her beloved tom - would you collect mushrooms for me next day?

- yes, sure. are you planning to invite someone important? - cassey asked.

- of course. i'm planning to invite two families, mine and my wife's. will you marry me? - tom asked on his knees.

cassey looked at the ring, then at tom, and she felt the moisture in her eyes. she hugged him, kissed him and in those simple actions the answer of her life was implied.
