Read the passage about the life of Jackie Robinson.

Jackie Robinson was born on January 31, 1919, in Cairo, Georgia. He was the youngest of five children and raised by a single mom in relative poverty. Jackie was very much inspired by his older brother Matthew to pursue his talent and passion for athletics. He attended John Muir High School and then went on to Pasadena Community College, where he played football, basketball, track, and baseball. From there, Jackie went on to the University of California, Los Angeles, where his time was cut short due to financial hardship.

At the outset of Jackie’s career, the leagues were still segregated. On April 15, 1947, Jackie became the first African-American athlete to play in the major leagues. He led in stolen bases and had an outstanding batting average, earning the honor of Rookie of the Year. Despite the ongoing racism that Jackie faced from some teammates, crowds, and players from other teams, he led his team to several National League pennants and ultimately helped them achieve the greatest victory of all: the World Series.

Which details from the passage could be included in a yearbook page about Jackie Robinson’s accomplishments?

Robinson’s family background
Robinson’s birthdate and birthplace
Robinson’s Rookie of the Year award
Robinson’s enrollment in college

Read this excerpt from Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad.

Unfortunately, the discovery was almost always made on a Sunday. Thus a whole day was lost before the machinery of pursuit could be set in motion. The posters offering rewards for the fugitives could not be printed until Monday. The men who made a living hunting for runaway slaves were out of reach, off in the woods with their dogs and their guns, in pursuit of four-footed game, or they were in camp meetings saying their prayers with their wives and families beside them.

According to the excerpt, why does Tubman plan escapes for late Saturday night or early Sunday morning?

Safe houses on the Underground Railroad operate only on Sundays, when everyone else is working.
Such activities as attending church are common on Sundays, so people are less likely to notice they are missing.
Slave trackers do not work on Sundays, so Tubman’s group has more lead time before people start looking for them.
Tubman and her group know exactly where slave trackers are on Sundays, so they know how to avoid them.
