“[He] set up a printing house of his own from which he published ‘The Pennsylvania Gazette,’ to which he contributed many essays, and which he made a medium for agitating a variety of local reforms. In 1732 he began to issue his famous ‘Poor Richard's Almanac’ for the enrichment of which he borrowed or composed those pithy utterances of worldly wisdom which are the basis of a large part of his popular reputation. In 1758, the year in which he ceases writing for the Almanac, he printed in it ‘Father Abraham's Sermon,’ now regarded as the most famous piece of literature produced in Colonial America.”

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are as follows:

Which is the best summary of this excerpt.

A. Benjamin Franklin founded "The Pennsylvania Gazette" and authored many articles for the paper that focused on local reforms. In 1732, he began writing his famous "Poor Richard's Almanac," and in 1758, he printed "Father Abraham's Sermon," which is considered one of the most well-known pieces of colonial literature.

B. Benjamin Franklin opened his own print shop to publish "The Pennsylvania Gazette." He founded the paper and wrote articles for it that focused on different local reforms.

C. Benjamin Franklin famously wrote "Poor Richard's Almanac," which contained bits of worldly wisdom. Franklin is very well known for the almanac. He is also famous for "Father Abraham's Sermon," which was published after Franklin stopped writing for the almanac.

D. Benjamin Franklin wrote for "The Pennsylvania Gazette," "Poor Richard's Almanac," and "Father Abraham's Sermon."

Answer:

The best summary of the excerpt is summary A.

Explanation:

A good summary will mention everything that is important but using fewer words than the original text. Notice that summaries B and C only mention a part of what is important. Maybe, if put together, they could form a good summary. But, being the way they are, they are both lacking information. Summary D does mention all the three published works the original text talks about, but that is it. No other important information about each work is given. It is quite a poor summary.

The best summary is option A. It mentions dates, the three works, and what Franklin wrote about.

What is one aspect of an interpretation of literature?
A. It often differs from one person to the next.
B. It is best shown in details from an author's life.
c. It is usually summed up by a single sentence in a text.
D. It stands alone as correct even without support.

Read the passage from "Children of the Wartime Evacuation.”

In January 1941, Sheila Shear and her sister were evacuated from east London to the Chilterns and billeted with a bachelor called Harry Mayo. They came from very different backgrounds – the Shears were Jewish, he was Christian – but an affectionate bond developed between them. Weekly visits and holidays with Uncle Harry, as they came to know him, continued long after the war had ended.
