Thinking back to that presentation in the library makes me smile. What started out as three high school boys skipping class turned out to be the most significant event in our lives. If we had made it to the gym that day instead of the library, more than likely the streets would have swallowed us in the next few years. We never would have become doctors. Everything we needed to start on the road to success was included in one forty-five-minute presentation. And we almost missed it.

—We Beat the Street,
Sampson Davis et al

"A Valentine"
by Edgar Allan Poe

For her this rhyme is penned whose luminous eyes,
Brightly expressive as the twins of Leda,
Shall find her own sweet name, that nestling lies
Upon the page, enwrapped from every reader.
Search narrowly the lines!—they hold a treasure
Divine—a talisman—an amulet
That must be worn at heart. Search well the measure—
The words—the syllables! Do not forget
The trivialest point, or you may lose your labor
And yet there is in this no Gordian knot
Which one might not undo without a sabre,
If one could merely comprehend the plot.
Enwritten upon the leaf where now are peering
Eyes scintillating soul, there lie perdus
Three eloquent words oft uttered in the hearing
Of poets, by poets—as the name is a poet's, too,
Its letters, although naturally lying
Like the knight Pinto—Mendez Ferdinando—
Still form a synonym for Truth—Cease trying!
You will not read the riddle, though you do the best you can do.


What do words such as "sweet," "divine," and "eloquent" imply?
The poet enjoys creating puzzles for readers
The poet is mocking the person to whom the poem is written
The poet loves the person to whom the poem is written
The poet thinks his words are beautiful

Today was an experience I’m supper glad I could have. It started out with my family and I waking up at five in the morning to get to the airport. I hardly slept the night before because I was excited to be going in an airplane the first time. Once we got to the airport, I could see how big the planes were but once inside they don’t look too big. The flight had a lot of turbulence and my mom was getting nervous. Although I really enjoyed it, I just imagined it as a roller-coaster. Once we were about to land, I look out the window and I could see all the clouds it was amazing I could imagine touching them and seeing how soft they were. After that We went inside the clouds it was super foggy but cool. Once we got out of the clouds, I could see the city it was big! And seeing it from above it was pretty

Read the excerpt from "The Legacy of Billy Mason." The pages of the scrapbook were filled with clippings from newspapers, and they were all about Billy Mason and his team—the games they played and the plays he made. At the very end there was an article about Billy himself, how he was hardworking and courageous and how, in his rookie year, he was injured in a home-plate collision. He held onto the ball, won the game, and never played again. He took one for the team. Billy closed the scrapbook. This was his father's scrapbook, left here in his grandmother’s house. Catcher Billy Mason was his father's hero. He had given his son his hero’s name as a kind of legacy. Billy held the scrapbook in his hands as he went downstairs to have his first real conversation with Grandma M. Compared with Billy, Billy's father would have most likely reacted to finding the scrapbook by becoming angry. proud. scared. anxious.
