Answer:
‘’Emmie Cole started the whisper.
“Lil Kelvey’s going to be a servant when she grows up.”
“O-oh, how awful!” said Isabel Burnell, and she made eyes at Emmie.
Emmie swallowed in a very meaning way and nodded to Isabel as she’d seen her mother do on those occasions.
“It’s true—it’s true—it’s true,” she said.’’
Lil seems to suffer from social alienation, as it she is shunned away from group’s and teased of her low status. They are not only shunned because of being poor, they are shunned as they seem to be neglected at home considering the mother makes little money to be at home often and the father is unknown. It is no wonder they turn on each other to be able to get through life.
‘’Where Lil went our Else followed. In the playground, on the road going to and from school, there was Lil marching in front and our Else holding on behind. Only when she wanted anything or when she was out of breath, our Else gave Lil a tug, a twitch, and Lil stopped and turned round. The Kelveys never failed to understand each other.’’
Lil is aware of the other kid’s malice and seems to try hard to keep herself and Else as distant as much as she can. The Kelvey sister usually walks closely to her sister as if seeking for her protection.
‘’Playtime came, and Isabel was surrounded. The girls of her class nearly fought to put their arms round her, to walk away with her, to beam flatteringly, to be her special friend. She held quite a court under the hung pine trees...the only two who stayed outside the ring were the two who were always outside, the Kelveys. They knew better than to come anywhere near the Burnell's.’’
These girls are excluded from viewing the doll's house. While the Kelveys were shunned by everybody, they were also belittled as they had no money coming from a poor family.
“Is it true you’re going to be a servant when you grow up, Lil Kelvey?” shrilled Lena.
Dead silence. But instead of answering, Lil only gave her silly, shamefaced smile. She didn’t seem to mind the question at all. What a sell for Lena! The girls began to titter.
Lena couldn’t stand that. She put her hands on her hips; she shot forward. “Yah, yer father’s in prison!” she hissed, spitefully.
‘’Lil, for instance, who was a stout, plain child with big freckles, came to school in a dress made from a green art-serge tablecloth of the Burnell's with red plush sleeves from the logans curtains. ‘’P16
The Kelveys are shown to be poor throughout the story as their clothing marks them as outsiders among peers in the school. Lil, for instance, her clothing is made of materials from the homes of the other girls

This poem, written many years ago by a British poet, is part of a larger collection about the innocence of youth and nature. In this poem, a small boy lives a life that is most likely quite foreign to many of today's American youth. Abandoned by his father, the boy must live a very difficult life as a chimney sweeper.

Answer:
A. It makes the audience aware of the narrator's thoughts and wary of Dewy's thoughts and actions
Explanation:
Because the author keeps the perspective consistent, the audience, much like the narrator Mr. Soltz, is worried about Dewy Scrugg's actions and words. The audience doesn't know what Dewy is thinking, so it's hard to know how to feel about him—is he a harmless salesman or is he dangerous?

DIRECTIONS Read the paragraph below. Then use what you have learned about paragraph structure to answer the questions below.
Paragraph 9
Let’s set the stage. You are in your school’s drama club, but you are not an actor or an actress. Your job is to build the stage set for the school’s fall play. You have no experience? That’s fine. Your drama teacher will guide you and the other members of the club through each part of the process.
Your teacher has already designed the set and built a small model. Picture this model as a room with only three walls. If you were seated in the audience, you would see that the left wall has a window, the back wall has a door, and the right wall is solid. From this model, you will be able to begin planning. A good plan should take into account the time, supplies, tools, and people needed to complete the work.
Time is a critical element of any plan. Let’s say that it is the third week of September and that the play will be performed in the second week of November. That means you have seven weeks to plan and build the stage set. Their need reduces the amount of time you have to five weeks. Now, let’s say that the performers will need two weeks to rehearse on the actual set.
The next part of your plan involves figuring out what supplies you will need. You must make a list of the materials and tools necessary to build and decorate the set. For example, if the walls will be made out of large pieces of cardboard, you would add cardboard to your list, making sure to note the size of each wall. Similarly, if the door on the back wall opens, you would add a saw to your list. Then, you would add items to complete construction of the left and right walls. Finally, to complete your list, you would make note of any additional supplies and tools needed to decorate the set when it is built—paint, markers, stencils, paintbrushes, and dropcloths.
Write three transitional words found in the final paragraph.

Excerpt from "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain" by Langston Hughes
...And so the word white comes to be unconsciously a symbol of all virtues. It holds for the children beauty, morality, and money. The whisper of "I want to be white" runs silently through their minds. This young poet's home is, I believe, a fairly typical home of the colored middle class. One sees immediately how difficult it would be for an artist born in such a home to interest himself in interpreting the beauty of his own people. He is never taught to see that beauty. He is taught rather not to see it, or if he does, to be ashamed of it when it is not according to Caucasian patterns."
