Laurel woke up to the sound of her banging alarm. She was startled, but excited to start her first day of middle school. Her outfit was ready, and her lunch was packed. She even bought new pens and notebooks for the new school year.

As she sat on the bus in her new clothes, she started to feel nervous. What if she didn't like her teachers? What if middle school was too hard? What if she didn't have anyone to sit with at lunch? Laurel could feel her stomach churning with fear. Then, at the next stop, her best friend, Norma, got on the bus. As Norma sat right next to her, Laurel knew everything would be okay as long as she had her best friend.

About the FBI

Have you ever wanted to work for the FBI? Here is a little history on the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The FBI started in 1908. It was known as the Bureau of Investigation then. On July 26, 1908, the Attorney General selected ten Special Agents of the Bureau of Investigation. They were called the Special Agent Task Force. In 1933, the Bureau’s name was changed to the Division of Investigation. It was changed again in 1935 to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is known as that today.
All agents carry a special wallet that has their picture in it. They use this wallet to identify themselves to people when they are working. It is called a credential. There are two different kinds of credentials. They change depending on which division in the FBI you work in and your rank as an agent.
The FBI has changed what they investigate as the times have changed. In 1908, there were different crimes than the crimes that exist today. Also, there were fewer types of crimes than today. A good example of this is car theft. In 1908, almost no one had a car. As more people bought cars, the number of car thefts increased.
Many years ago, the FBI investigated crimes like bank robbery, kidnapping, and car thefts that go across state lines. Today, there are over 350 violations of the law that the FBI investigates. The different violations are broken down into several categories. The FBI looks into violent crime, organized crime, white collar crime, terrorism, foreign counterintelligence, civil rights, and applicant matters.
The FBI has many ways of solving those crimes and finding the criminals. One of them is through fingerprint identification. Fingerprints are a great way to tell people apart because everyone’s fingerprints are unique. This means that no two people in the world have the same fingerprints! Other ways of identifying people, like hair color, height, and weight, may change as a person gets older. Fingerprints stay the same no matter what.
There are over 250 million sets of fingerprint records on file. If all the fingerprint cards on file were stacked on top of one another, they would equal 133 stacks, each the size of the Empire State Building! Finding space to keep all of these fingerprint cards is difficult. This is one of the reasons the FBI is now putting cards in a digital format. That means the images can be stored on computers. All fingerprint cards at the FBI are eight-inch squares, a little smaller than a piece of notebook paper, and are thinner than a piece of cardboard. The FBI gets over 37,000 of these fingerprint cards every day, seven days a week! 32% of these cards now come to the FBI as digital images.
Not all fingerprint cards on file are of criminals. Some records are civil prints. Civil prints are taken of people who work for the government or apply for a job with the government.

Many fossils are formed through a process called permineralization. First, an animal or plant dies and is buried in sediment. Over time, layers of sediment above it harden into sedimentary rock. The rock traps the animal or plant remains inside. Rainwater carries minerals through the layers and into the remains. Slowly, the minerals seep into gaps in the remains and harden to form rock. Eventually, the rock takes the same shape as the remains. This is more likely to happen if an organism is buried quickly, so it won’t be destroyed by wind, waves or sun or by scavengers or decomposers.

During permineralization, a bone will

A. trap a decomposer.
B. be destroyed by sun.
C. be exposed to scavengers.
D. be slowly filled in with minerals.

Which sentence in this story from Aesop’s Fables portrays the start of the rising action?
Androcles
A slave named Androcles once escaped from his master and fled to the forest. As he was wandering about there, he came upon a lion lying down, moaning and groaning. At first he turned to flee, but finding that the lion did not pursue him, he turned back and went up to him. As he came near, the lion put out his paw, which was all swollen and bleeding, and Androcles found that a huge thorn had got into it and was causing all the pain. He pulled out the thorn and bound up the paw of the lion, who was soon able to rise and lick the hand of Androcles like a dog. Then the lion took Androcles to his cave, and every day used to bring him meat from which to live. But shortly afterwards, both Androcles and the lion were captured, and the slave was sentenced to be thrown to the lion, after the latter had been kept without food for several days. The Emperor and all his Court came to see the spectacle, and Androcles was led out into the middle of the arena. Soon the lion was let loose from his den and rushed bounding and roaring toward his victim. But as soon as he came near to Androcles he recognized his friend, fawned upon him, and licked his hands like a friendly dog. The Emperor, surprised at this, summoned Androcles to him, who told him the whole story. Whereupon the slave was pardoned and freed, and the lion let loose to his native forest. Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.
