QHHO® For Questions 1 - 5: “Saturday One” from The Saturdays by Elizabeth Enright The Melendy children are four siblings who live with their father in New York City. There are two sisters, Mona and Randy, and two brothers, Rush and Oliver. The children enjoy playing together, but they becoie bored one Saturday afternoon. That is when they come up with a new idea of how to spend their Fiture Seturdays. 1. "I'm $0 b-0-0-0-0-red!" groaned Randy, lifting one foot in the air and letting it drop heavily as though simply unable to sustain the weight of her boredom. 2. "You and me, both,” agreed Rush. 3. "And I'm bored listening to you complain," complained Mona, slapping her book together. 4. Oliver paid no attention to any of them. "Why don't we play something? Parcheesi or something?" suggested Mona. 5. "Oh, Parcheesi" scoffed Randy.| scoffed —mocked; saidrudely 6. "Well, you used to like it. Then how about making somiething out of clay, or drawing, or we might do a play." 7. "Clay's dreary on a wet day, arid 'm tired of drawing, and its no fun being in plays with you, Mona, because you take all the leading parts, and Rush and I are only the fathers and mothers or the maids or the policemen or something." 8. "Oh, all right, you're impossible!” Nona retired to her book. "Why don't you read?” 9. "I've read everything," Said Randy, which wasn't true, but she was enjoying being difficult. It was a novelty.. 10. Randy sat up on the hearth rug and stared into the fire. There was one litle fitful pale-blue flame among all the golden ones in the grate. 11, "Ihave an idea," she said slowly. 12. Mona went on reading. Rush went on playing, Oliver went on drawing his fourteenth battleship. 13. "T think I have a good idea," repeated Randy patiently, and they looked at her. 14, "Well?" sald Mona, her finger in her book. 15, "Let's start a club!" suggested Randy. 16. "Oh, look at all the clubs we've had already," said Rush. "The Mystery-Solving Club. The Tropical Fish Collectors Club. The Helping-Cut-Down-the-Electric-Light-Bill Club. What ever happened to any of them? They were all the same. Mona was always president and we never had more than two meetings.” 17. "But this one will be different," persisted Randy. "Listen, Rush. Each of us (except Oliver, of course) gets fifty cents allowance every Saturday. Now. You want to go to Carnegie Hall and hear some music. Mona wants to 18. 19, 20. 21. 22, 23. 24, 25. 26. 27, 28. 29. go to a play. I want to see those French pictures Father was talking about. Every single one of those things costs more than fifty cents. Now what I was thinking was this. We're all old enough to be allowed to go out by ourselves—except Oliver—f we promise to be careful... So why don’t we put all our allowances together once a week and let one of us spend them? I mean, for instance, Mona would get a dollar and a half next Saturday and she could go to a play. Then the next week you'd get it, and the week after it would be my tum. See? Only one rule would be that we couldn't save it, or just spend it’on things like candy and a movie. We'd hhave to do something really good with it; something we'd always wanted to do.” “Say, that's not a bad idea at all." Rush looked excited. "We could pool our resources—that's whet it's called, pooling your resources. Gee whiz, that would mean a dollar and a half for each of us if we pooled our resources!" "We'd have to ask Father," said Mona. “Oh, held say yes. He believes in children being independent...” "And what about shoelaces and pads and the dimes we owe” before she was won over. "There are always things like that.” ona meant to find every flaw in the plan "Welll just have to be careful," replied Rush. "And there's always the'Pig if necessary.” poe ‘They all looked at the big painted...pig bank on the bookcase.

And by kind of helping the pennies out with a nail file," supplied Rush. Mona gave him a look. "You sound as if you'd tried it already.” “Just once,” admitted Rush. “Just to see how much there was. I put it all back in again though. ‘There was seventy-nine cents then, and I bet there's a lot more now.” "T don't know, Randy." Mona was beginning to look excited too. "Maybe it és a good idea.” 30. "Good? It's swell!" boasted Randy happily. "But we have to think of a name for the club." 31. "We could call it The Pig if Necessary Club," suggested Rush. 32. "Or the Pooled Resources Club," said Mona, with a withering glance. "Why not just The Saturday Club?" 33, "That sounds like a lot of dressed-up grown-up ladies listening to Tehaikovsky,” objected Rush. "Let's see. 1 know! We can call it The Independent Saturday Afternoon Adventure Club. In front of people we can speak of it by its initials. 1.S.4.A.C. Get it? It sounds like the name Isaac and nobody will ever catch on!" withering—scomful; disapproving Tehaikovsky—Russian composer 34.

For Questions 6 - 10: “Was It a Dream?” by Edith Robarts 1 Rita grew quite tired of gathering wildflowers while her brother Frank sat by the water busy with his fishing-rod. 2. “He must be tired of it by this time! He has been fishing for two hours her bunch of flowers, she walked to where her brother was sitting. she said, and, swinging 3. “Do leave off fishing for a while, Frank!” she pleaded, leaning against the tree beside him. “There is such a funny-looking animal running about over there in the grass, Come arid look!” 4 Frank laughed. 5 “I know your funny-looking animals, Rita!” he said. 6 “Aren’t you really tired of sitting quite still?” went on Rita wonderingly. 7 “I don’t think about it,” answered her brother. “I want to catch the fish, and to do that I must sit still.” 8 Rita knew she must be contented to wait, so she walked a little way from him and threw herself down upon the bank, 9. As she lay looking into the water shie suddenly felt herself grow very sleepy. A little while after, the water began to get so clear that soe could see right through it. It grew more and more so until it became just like glass. Rita could see the very bottom of the pond and the fish swimming quickly backwards and forwards 10 Then she heard some very funny little voices coming up from the water. This made her look closer, and she soon discovered a small group of fishes who seemed to be speaking very eagerly together. She saw they were gathered round Frank's line, on the end of which hung a tempting piece of bait. 11 “I tell you, my son,” Rita heard the largest fish say to one of the smaller ones, “that is a trap. I have seen hundreds of poor fishes try to swallow that worm, and they have been pulled up out of the water and I have never seen them anymore!” 12. “But, mother!” cried the smaller fish, “if I only had just one bite! Look what a beaut sure there can be nothing to harm me!" itis! Tam 13 “Inside that worm,” continued the big fish, “there is a hook which will catch into your gills, and you will not be able to get away. Then the man at the top will pull you up and up...” 14 Still the little fish looked longingly at the bait. Rita wanted to call out and tell hina what his mother said was quite true; but somehow her voice refused to come. 15 The other fishes who were gathered round listening did not Say anything, but Rita saw that some of the smaller ones looked at the worm just as longingly as the littl@ one who had spoken. 16 For a few minutes there was silence in the water; then ail at once, at 2 qioment when it thought its mother wes looking the other way, the little fish made a dart forward and tried to swallow the bait. The next moment it was wriggling about in a most pitiable manner and giving faint little cries for help. Its mother swam towards it in’ great distress. 17. “Come and help!” she called, in a trembling voice. 18 All the other fishes surrounded the.Jine, and some caught hold of the little fish’s tail and held on. 19 Just as Rita was getting very excited indeed she gave a great start and jumped up from the bank. 20 “What was that?” she exclaifned aloud, 21. “Why, I've got a splendid catch, It must be a monster! The line is so heavy I can hardly pull it in!” 22 It was Frank's voice: Rita suddenly remembered where she was and that she must have fallen asleep. She walked siovly to Frank, thinking about her strange dream, 23. She had only stood. by him a minute when—splash!—out flew the line from the water and over went Frank on his back. 24 It was so funny that Rit# could not help laughing heartily—especially as Frank was not at alll hurt. 25 “It's all very well for you to laugh!” he said, when he had got up again; “but that was the best catch I’ve ever had, and the wretched fish must have got off the hook!” Jongingly—wanting something; having a desire for something pitiable—sad; heartbreaking wretched—awful; horrible 26 Rita grew very thoughtful. Could her dream have been true? It really did seem strange. Anyway, although she felt sorry for Frank, she could not help feeling very pleased that the poor little fish had got free! “Was It a Dream?” by Edith Robarts from Laugh and Play by E. Stuart Hardy.

My First Job . really wanted the new Rocket Racer skateboard that was coming out in two days. All of my friends were going to get one, and I had to get one, too. I had been on my best behavior both at school and at home for months. I had done favors for my parents, my teachers, and I had even been nice to my little sister, I knew I was going to have to ask my parents to buy me the new skateboard, so I waited until one Friday night after dinner.

All of my friends are getting one from their parents, and I thought maybe you would be able to get one for me, too.” I thought I had done a good job convincing them until my fatter spoke. “James, we recognize that you are doing well in, school and that you have been extremely helpful around the house. But just because you are acting as we expect you to act does not mean that you deserve a gift. We expect you always to work hard in school, to help out around the house, and to be kind to your sister. Because your mother is only working part-time right now, we don't have much extra money.
