Roderick Usher's poem
By Edgar Allan Poe

I. In the greenest of our valleys,
By good angels tenanted,
Once a fair and stately palace—
Radiant palace—reared its head.
In the monarch Thought's dominion—
It stood there!
Never seraph spread a pinion
Over fabric half so fair.

II. Banners yellow, glorious, golden,
On its roof did float and flow;
(This—all this—was in the olden
Time long ago);
And every gentle air that dallied,
In that sweet day,
Along the ramparts plumed and pallid,
A winged odor went away.

...

V. And, round about his home, the glory
That blushed and bloomed
Is but a dim-remembered story
Of the old time entombed.

VI. And travellers now within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows see
Vast forms that move fantastically
To a discordant melody;
While, like a rapid ghastly river,
Through the pale door,
A hideous throng rush out forever,
And laugh—but smile no more.

"Calm down, Mrs. Blakely," Holmes replied. "The solution to this mystery is staring you in the face. There is no sign of a break-in, so the thief has access to the house. The thief disappeared in this spot without using the far door, so there must be a hiding spot within the walls or floor. There are scratches on the ground near this portrait. I felt a draft when I reached down to test the floor. It's elementary, Mrs. Blakely. The thief is hidden in the wall behind this portrait."

When Michelle's dad, an army lieutenant, was transferred to a new base in Fort Hood, Texas, her family had to pick up and move for the second time in three years. "Don't worry," her mother said. "You'll get used to the new school in no time."
But everything about the school in Texas was different. The hallways were crowded, the cafeteria food was gross, all the tests were multiple-choice tests, and the teachers were stricter. Her least favorite time of day was the break between lunch and third period. All the students gathered on the football field's bleachers and separated into different groups. There were the punks in one area, the theater kids in another, the jocks near the back, the academics near the middle, and so on. Michelle felt as if she didn't belong to any of these groups, and so, she often suffered the embarrassment of sitting alone on the bleachers in the front.
One day, while outside, Michelle was horrified to see a cockroach crawling around the bleachers near her. She screamed and then put her hand to her mouth self-consciously. Almost everyone had turned to stare at her. Gillian, a girl from her chemistry class, came over to ask Michelle if she was okay.
"I'm fine," Michelle said nervously. "I just freaked out because I'm not used to cockroaches."
Gillian glanced under the table. "You're not from around here, huh?" she said.
"How could you tell?" Michelle asked.
"Because here, cockroaches are a dime a dozen," Gillian said. "They adapt well to our climate. How about you?"
"What about me?" Michelle said.
"How are you adapting?"
"All right, I guess," Michelle said.
Gillian stood there, smiling, as though she expected Michelle to say something more. That was when Michelle realized the obvious: this was the perfect opportunity to make a new friend.
"Hey, have you studied for the chemistry test yet?" Michelle asked her.
Gillian shook her head. "No. And I didn't do that well on the last test."
"Well, maybe we could study together later?" Michelle said.
"Sure," Gillian said. "Meet you in the library later?"
Michelle nodded.

(BOOK IS HARRY POTTER AND SORCERORS STONE)

(1) There are many examples of grand architecture in the world. (2) Some of the most impressive are buildings of the ancient city called Petra in Jordan. (3) Petra is the Greek word for "rock." (4) The early inhabitants of Petra—the Nabataeans—did not use wood or brick to make the structures, but instead, they carved them right out of the desert sandstone cliffs. (5) Two thousand years ago, Petra was an important center of activity where caravans of travelers would pass through on their way to trade goods in other regions. (6) Their power and riches can still be seen today in the remains of their city. (7) Although Petra was built in a rugged, dry desert, the Nabataeans made wise plans for collecting and storing water. (8) This water system was made of cisterns, or reservoirs, that held water and channels that directed water from one place to another. (9) After thriving for about 1,000 years, Petra began to decline. (10) The trade routes that had once gone through the city were changed to go toward the sea. (11) In addition, an earthquake devastated the area. (12) The ruins of the city were rediscovered in the 1800s by a European traveler who disguised himself as a local Bedouin, or local Middle Eastern person, to find the remote location. (13) Today, modern travelers can visit Petra and see its majesty in person; tours are available by foot, donkey, or camel. (14) Much of Petra remains to be seen; archaeologists have uncovered only 15 percent of it. (15) The rest of this city is still "lost" or underground.
