During World War II, the United States government began to enforce food rationing to ensure that supplies would not run out. The government also began to look for creative solutions to provide food for its citizens. One of the most effective solutions was a national victory garden campaign instituted by the War Food Administration in 1941. The campaign encouraged people to grow vegetables in window boxes, rooftops, school grounds, backyards, city parks, and vacant lots. This would lessen the demand for commercially grown vegetables and help stretch the food supply as far as possible. The U.S. government began to produce inspirational posters and informational publications to educate the public about home gardening.
Victory gardens began to crop up across the United States, and in 1942, more than five million people participated in the program by purchasing and planting seeds. During the next year, more than 300,000 pressure cookers were sold to American families who wanted to can and store their homegrown vegetables. The home gardens were very successful, and in 1943, more than 20 million Americans were growing their own produce. By 1944, 40% of all vegetables in the U.S were grown in victory gardens. The victory garden campaign not only increased the amount of food available, but it also helped to maintain the morale of Americans on the home front.

Megan was running late for school. Only this time, it wasn’t her fault. It was her Dad’s.

“I know my keys are around here somewhere,” he said. “Will you help me look, Meg?” He’d been frantically looking for his keys for the last 10 minutes.

Megan rolled her eyes in response and pretended to look for the keys. She was too annoyed to actually help, though. Her dad had a bad habit of misplacing things—and not just simple things like keys or a wallet. It wasn’t uncommon for Megan’s dad to take the ice cream out of the freezer, go grab a spoon and bowl, and then forget where he put the ice cream. Days later, he’d find it melted in a random kitchen cabinet. At this point, Megan was fed up.

“Dad, I don’t see your keys anywhere. Are you sure they’re in the house?” Megan called out to her dad.

“Well, of course! Where else would they be?” her dad called back.

“Have you looked outside? Remember that time your keys were in the recycling bin in the garage?”

Megan’s dad chuckled. “Good point! I still don’t know how they got there, but I’ll go check in the garage. And in the trash can, for good measure.”

Megan smiled to herself. She really did love her dad, flaws and all. Suddenly, she heard her dad yell out from the garage. Megan raced outside.

“Look at this, Meg!” her dad said, gesturing to his car. “My keys were in the car, and it was already running. Did you start the car earlier to warm it up and forget?”

“No, Dad,” said Megan, fighting back the urge to roll her eyes again. “I’m pretty sure you must have done that.”

“I sure don’t remember. But then, I never do! Come on, let’s get you to school before I lose the car.”

Megan and her dad got in the car. “Just another day with my dad,” thought Megan, grinning to herself.

Select the correct answer.
What role does the dialogue play in this passage?

A.

As the seedling continues to grow, it will bend toward the sunlight. The seedling develops roots to absorb water, air, and nutrients. The roots spread to the upper soil. There are many things that can threaten a seedling's survival: fire, drought, flood, animals, insects, and disease can all attack the seedling. At this stage, the seedling is very vulnerable and has a chance of not surviving this stage of growth.

Read the text below. What is another statement the author could add to support their position? Schools should not require every student in kindergarten through 12th grade to play a daily team sport. Playing team sports helps some children learn skills, but some children are not athletic and do not want to play on a sports team. Values, such as respect, can be taught in academic clubs or even in music. Working in cooperative groups, or on public service projects, can also help children learn teamwork. With an already full academic load, schools do not have time to have students play on a sports team during school hours.
