Time to "Bee" Wary, by Gordon Winters

Africanized honey bees were created in Brazil in 1957. Scientists mixed local bees with African ones to create a bee that would make more honey. They ended up with something much different. The new bees evolved in unexpected ways. They multiplied and migrated north. These Africanized honeybees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons.

Killer bees are far more aggressive than their relatives. They have been known to attack in great numbers, even when there has been no direct threat on their hives. They have swarmed because of loud noises, dark clothing, bright jewelry, and even strong perfume. They will chase a person for more than a quarter of a mile and remain angered for up to 24 hours.

Killer bees are also dangerous because of their sting. While most bees take up to 30 seconds to attack, killer bees sting in just 3 seconds. Their venom is no stronger than a regular bee's, but when one killer bee stings, others follow. With up to 80,000 members in a colony, victims are quickly overwhelmed. So many stings in such a short time can cause allergic reactions. Victims enter a state of shock, lose blood pressure, and in many cases, die.

A final reason why "killer" has been added to their name is the unfortunate number of deaths they have caused. Experts estimate that the Africanized honeybee moves at a rate of about 200 miles each year. As the bees claim new territory, they claim new victims as well. More than 1000 people have been stung to death in South and Central America. There have been rising numbers of attacks in Mexico and a handful in the United States. Once a swarm sets sights on a victim, it is very difficult for the victim to escape. Once attacked, it is very difficult to survive.

Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted. Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously. It is good practice to call a professional to remove beehives in your area. If you are stung multiple times by any insect, you should always seek medical attention. You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Which details relate to the main fact in the third paragraph?

A. Killer bees attack in great numbers. They swarm for many reasons. They chase people and stay angry for hours.
B. Killer bees have very aggressive behavior. Their stings are very dangerous. They have caused many deaths.
C. Killer bees sting in just three seconds. They sting in large numbers. They cause allergic reactions in their victims.
D. Killer bees have been the cause of deaths in South and Central America. They've caused deaths in Mexico and the U.S.

The Big Mystery of My Future History
Marie Devers

1 When I think about my destiny, that cloudy cool mirage,
The options and the chances overlap in a collage.

3 I sometimes spend an afternoon in dreams of come what may,
A changeable amusement, better than any matinee.

5 Ambitious as I am, there is so much that I foresee,
I’m writing seven million drafts of my biography.

7 Youth is like a blindfold to the life I’ve yet to meet,
I can’t make out the future with my life so incomplete.

9 Who will be the obstacles, opposing my success?
And will they win, or will I be the most victorious?

11 I hope that I am valiant at all my hopeful chances,
And that I handle, gracefully, my unique circumstances.

13 I tell myself when thinking of this future publication,
That whims I can’t predict are arranging their formation.

15 Trophies sit un-etched in a factory someplace,
Waiting for my name to illustrate their empty space.

17 No matter how much algebra I use to see what’s next,
The equations still have missing parts, defined as only X.

19 A mosaic in development, my life’s still so unsure,
Yet bound to be exciting as any novel from the store.

21 Do you ever stop and tell yourself your living narrative?
The fabric that you’re weaving that will be the life you live.

23 I dare you now to play this game. Pick up your mental pen,
And fearlessly create the book your life is waiting in.

Read the passage on the left to answer the following questions:

5. The bedbugs in Paul Bunyan's camp were a thousand times more unpleasant than regular
bedbugs. Lumberjacks are tough. The bed bugs that fed on lumberjacks became the toughest
bed bugs in the world. These bugs would swallow a whole bed, pillow and all, more easily than
you or I would eat a sandwich. Paul thought that the best thing to do with the bugs was to train
them to haul logs. Each bed bug was more vicious than a runaway buzzsaw. Taming them was
impossible. Paul Bunyan isn't one to admit defeat. He decided to try the bed bugs on a new diet.
Instead of lumberjack blood, Paul fed them wildcat teeth and dynamite. The bed bugs shrank
until each wasn't any bigger than a medium-sized moose. When Paul saw how tiny the bogs
had gotten, he stamped his foot in glee and accidentally squashed them all.

Please help me I will give out the brain thing and extra points
I had started my research on the mines with the goal of writing about the mine itself; the look and feel of the mine, and the coal it produced that helped fuel machinery and heat homes. However, in the end, my book ended up being more about the miners than the mines. Most miners endured long and hard hours of working underground, and without receiving much pay. Perhaps Marybeth Anderson said it best when she called the underground mines, “a great place to visit, but not somewhere I’d want to work” (Anderson 121).
Within the last paragraph of the author's speech, he uses the words mine and mines repeatedly. Why does the author repeat these words so frequently?
A) The author found out that most miners endured long and hard hours of working underground.
B) The author seeks to emphasize the importance of mines and their unique workplace environment.
C) The author had fond memories of the mines because he had explored them several times while growing up.
D) The author had intended for his research to be about the "mines," but was surprised to find out that the mines are nothing special without the coalminers.

My mom is always repeating the same old joke: if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump, too? Of course not. But I get what she means. She's talking about peer pressure. Teenagers like us live with it every day. Pretty much every kid wants to be liked, to have friends, to be popular. No one wants people to think they aren't cool. While peer pressure is tough, giving in to it and getting in trouble is tougher.

But teenagers are still learning to make good decisions. Like this one time my friend Harold wanted to take his dad's prized Jeep Grand Cherokee for a drive. Harold was 13, and he'd never driven a car before. But he figured he knew enough about operating a motor vehicle just by watching his parents drive. When his parents were out of town one weekend, Harold invited me and some of our friends over to his house so he could take us for a drive. I said, "Not me," because I knew it was a stupid thing to do. I told him and everybody else what I thought of the idea. (Driving isn't easy. It took my big brother weeks to get the hang of it.) Harold got mad and told me I was being a chicken. I said, "I'd rather be a chicken than get in an accident and have a broken leg."
