Colonialism in the United States by Henry Cabot Lodge In the years which followed the close of the war, it seemed as if colonialism had been utterly extinguished: but, unfortunately, this was not the case. The multiplication of great fortunes, the growth of a class rich by inheritance, and the improvement in methods of travel and communication, all tended to carry large numbers of Americans to Europe. The luxurious fancies which were born of increased wealth, and the intellectual tastes which were developed by the advance of the higher education, and to which an old civilization offers peculiar advantages and attractions, combined to breed in many persons a love of foreign life and foreign manners. These tendencies and opportunities have revived the dying spirit of colonialism. We see it most strongly in the leisure class, which is gradually increasing in this country. During the miserable ascendancy of the Second Empire, a band of these persons formed what was known as the "American colony," in Paris. Perhaps they still exist; if so, their existence is now less flagrant and more decent. When they were notorious they presented the melancholy spectacle of Americans admiring and aping the manners, habits, and vices of another nation, when that nation was bent and corrupted by the cheap, meretricious, and rotten system of the third Napoleon. They furnished a very offensive example of peculiarly mean colonialism. This particular phase has departed, but the same sort of Americans are, unfortunately, still common in Europe. I do not mean, of course, those persons who go abroad to buy social consideration, nor the women who trade on their beauty or their wits to gain a brief and dishonoring notoriety. These last are merely adventurers and adventuresses, who are common to all nations. The people referred to here form that large class, comprising many excellent men and women, no doubt, who pass their lives in Europe, mourning over the inferiority of their own country, and who become thoroughly denationalized. They do not change into Frenchmen or Englishmen, but are simply disfigured and deformed Americans. We find the same wretched habit of thought in certain groups among the rich and idle people of our great eastern cities, especially in New York, because it is the metropolis. These groups are for the most part made up of young men who despise everything American and admire everything English. They talk and dress and walk and ride in certain ways, because they imagine that the English do these things after that fashion. They hold their own country in contempt, and lament the hard fate of their birth. They try to think that they form an aristocracy, and become at once ludicrous and despicable. The virtues which have made the upper classes in England what they are, and which take them into public affairs, into literature and politics, are forgotten, for Anglo-Americans imitate the vices or the follies of their models, and stop there. If all this were merely a fleeting fashion, an attack of Anglo-mania or of Gallo-mania, of which there have been instances enough everywhere, it would be of no consequence. But it is a recurrence of the old and deep-seated malady of colonialism. It is a lineal descendant of the old colonial family. The features are somewhat dim now, and the vitality is low, but there is no mistaking the hereditary traits. The people who thus despise their own land, and ape English manners, flatter themselves with being cosmopolitans, when in truth they are genuine colonists, petty and provincial to the last degree. 11 Select the correct answer.

Read the passage.

Changes at the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Renaissance created a demand for a more economical method of printing. The need for a fast and inexpensive way to produce written documents grew with the growth of literacy. Several new ways of creating written materials were developed. One important innovation was the creation of movable metal type.

Several print masters tried to perfect the use of movable metal type in order to produce books faster and on a larger scale. Johannes Gutenberg (c.1398-1468), was a German stonecutter and goldsmith. He was the first to develop a printing press that offered a solution for the demand of large quantities of written documents. In 1450, he formulated an alloy of lead, tin, and antinomy – a silvery, shiny grey metalloid found in nature – and created metal type out of it. Gutenberg's alloy melted at a low temperature. It cast well in the die and was durable in the printing press. This meant the separate pieces of type could be used again and again. Each letter was a mirror image that was carved in relief on a small block. These individual letters could be easily moved around to form words.



Which feature, when included with this paragraph, would best aid a reader's comprehension?

A. a map of Germany in Gutenberg's time

B. an artist's rendering of the Gutenberg printing press

C. a black and white photograph of a letter used in Gutenberg's printing press

D. the heading "Gutenberg" at the top of the paragraph

Though pollution is everywhere, there are ways to help prevent it. By walking or riding bikes—instead of driving cars—people can help decrease air pollution. People can also buy and eat organic foods to support farmers that do not use fertilizers on their crops. It is also a good idea to take old things that people intend to throw away and find new ways to use them. A great way to help the environment is to recycle. Save items like used paper, glass and plastic bottles, and metal cans. Then, take them to a recycling center where they can be turned into new products to be used again. Some cities and towns even have recycling programs in place so all you have to do is leave your recyclable items on the curb on a certain day each week. It doesn’t get much easier to help the environment and reduce pollution than that! In paragraph 5, what point is the author making when he talks about ways to prevent pollution? A) Simple changes can lead to big improvements for the environment. B) Reusing old items in new ways can actually harm the environment. C) One person’s efforts will have little impact on helping the environment. D) It is easier to reduce air pollution than it is to reduce water pollution.

Read the following passage:
Amid the many horrors of the Vietnam War, I found one of
the worst to be the waiting – those quiet times of inactivity
when anticipation of the next attack weighed on me like a
pile of bricks. I might be lying in the mud along a creek bed
somewhere, completely oblivious to the cold, the wet
earth, or the smell of gunpowder still fresh in my nostrils. It
was those times of waiting that showed me I had nothing
else in my mind - no past, no future, no ideas. Just a raw
awareness of the moment.
Which best explains how imagery contributes to the meaning of this
passage?
A. It helps readers understand the setting where the soldier waits for
the enemy to attack.
O
B. It reveals the soldier's reasons for fighting by describing the smell
of gunpowder.
O
C. It suggests the horrors of the war by comparing the soldier's
workload to a pile of bricks.

D. It helps readers understand the reasons for the soldier's anxious
feelings.

Excerpt from Clashing Opinions at Controversial Commissioners Meeting Kyle Ellington SUSSEX COUNTY, SC — Tension oozed from the courthouse last night as debate raged during the bimonthly Sussex County commissioner’s meeting, which centered on the most hotly debated topic in the area: a proposed strip mall. The development company, the county commissioners, and hundreds of concerned citizens gathered to deliberate on the issue. “From what I gleaned from the report—which was filled with legal jargon—Mr. Denison and his company plan to destroy more than 200 acres of forest land in our county. To me, this is unconscionable!” claimed local citizen Andria Meir. Meir is a member of the local chapter of the Sierra Club and has rallied against multiple development projects in the past. Beyond Meir’s remarks at the council meeting, the Sierra Club issued a press release decrying the construction plans. One citizen who supports the new strip mall is Jerome Washington. Washington gave an impassioned plea to commissioners to allow the development of the commercial facility. Washington spoke about his failing delicatessen business located a few blocks from the proposed building site. Washington, who gave the most convincing speech of the night, eloquently stated that the new development would bolster business. He claimed that the strip mall would increase foot traffic in the area, which would help his shop and other ailing establishments. Which statement BEST explains the differences of opinion between Jerome Washington and Andria Meir? A) Washington believes that the mall will bring him more business while Meir believes it will ruin the environment. B) Washington believes that the mall will bring more foot traffic to the area while Meir believes it will ruin her golf course. C) Washington believes that the mall will ruin lush, green areas while Meir believes that the sleek mall is just what the area needs. Eliminate D) Washington believes that the mall will improve the look of the area while Meir believes that there is already too much commercially zoned land.
