A Town's History

Lily glanced up at the clock in the front of the classroom. The minute hand was crawling much too slowly. There was still more than an hour until lunchtime and Lily could already hear her stomach complaining. She slumped down in her seat and started to fiddle with the pencils on her desk.



“Is the speaker going to be here soon, Mr. Gardiner?” Kevin eagerly asked the teacher. On Monday, the teacher had told the class that someone would come give a presentation that Friday, but he hadn’t told them who it would be. All week, Lily and her classmates had been trying to guess the speaker’s identity.



“What about the President?” Steven asked. Everyone laughed at the idea of the President of the United States coming to talk to the fifth-grade glass in their small town in Oregon.



“Okay, class,” said Mr. Gardiner. “I will finally tell you the name of our speaker: Ms. Traynor. She works at the local history museum and will be sharing information with us about our town’s history.”



“History is so boring,” Lily thought. “I can’t imagine that anything interesting ever happened here.”



Just then, there was a knock at the door, and the principal came in with a business-like woman carrying a large briefcase. Mr. Gardiner introduced her to the class.



“Your teacher has told me that you are studying the Oregon Trail,” Ms. Traynor said. “Does anyone know how this town is an important part of the trail’s history?”



“It’s at the very end of the Oregon Trail,” Bethany answered.



“That’s right. Today, I’m going to tell you about some of the first settlers in our town.” Ms. Traynor began to pull several old black-and-white photographs from her briefcase, displaying them for the class. Some were faded at the corners, and most showed people posing stiffly for the camera. Even the children looked serious.



Lily liked looking at the photographs that demonstrated what people had worn back then. One photograph showed a pretty woman standing tall in a long dress with long sleeves and a flowered bonnet. “She must have sweltered in that outfit, like I do when I wear a sweatshirt on a warm day,” she thought. The photo made Lily think of what it might have been like to not be able to wear a short-sleeved shirt when she wanted to, or enjoy air-conditioning!



“One of the ways we study history is to read the letters and journals written by the people of the time,” Ms. Traynor explained.



“Where do you get the journals and letters?” was Steven’s query.



“People donate them to the museum so we don’t have to buy them. Many of the people who live here are descendants of the first settlers. Sometimes people have saved letters and journals from their great-grandparents. Other people find old journals and mementos when they are cleaning out their houses. I am going to share some of these historic treasures with you today.”



In one letter, a woman wrote to her sister back east describing her journey on the Oregon Trail. She told of long, hot, dusty days on the trail and cold nights camping with the wagons circled around them. She had written about crossing a river on a small, wooden raft that was rocked by the strong rapids. Some of her belongings had fallen into the river, but she had been relieved to make it safely to the other side.



When Ms. Traynor passed around a journal that had been discovered in someone’s attic, Lily couldn’t wait to look at it. It had been written by a girl around Lily’s age. She turned the pages of the small book carefully. She saw that the girl had written about her new town and her new school. The girl had been nervous about beginning school in a place where she didn’t know anyone, but the other students had made her feel welcome. She had even met her new best friend at the new school.



Then suddenly, Ms. Traynor said, “I know you all have to go to lunch, so we will end our discussion here.”



Lily looked up at the clock and saw that it was already 12:30. The hour had flown by. Then Lily thought about her grandmother’s attic. She knew her grandmother kept family letters and journals. What kinds of stories could Lily find in those journals? She couldn’t wait to find out.

1. How is it that Charlie thinks Ms. Kinnian is not as old or a genius as before?

2. Is Charlie really in love with Ms. Kinnian? Explain.

Excerpt:

I don't understand why I never noticed how beautiful Miss Kinnian
really is. She has brown eyes and feathery brown hair that comes to the top
of her neck. She's only thirty-four! I think from the beginning I had the feeling
that she was an unreachable genius-and very, very old. Now, every time I
see her she grows younger and more lovely.
We had dinner and a long talk. When she said that I was coming along
so fast that soon I'd be leaving her behind, I laughed.

"It's true, Charlie. You're already a better reader that I am. You can read
a whole page at a glance while I can take in only a few lines at a time. And
you remember every single thing you read. I'm lucky if I can recall the main
thoughts and the general meaning."
"I don't feel intelligent. There are so many things I don't understand."
She took out a cigarette and I lit it for her. "You've got to be a little
patient. You're accomplishing in days and weeks what it takes normal people
to do in half a lifetime. That's what makes it so amazing. You're like a giant
sponge now, soaking things in. Facts, figures, general knowledge. And soon
you'll begin to connect them, too. You'll see how the different branches of
learning are related. There are many levels, Charlie, like steps on a giant
ladder that take you up higher and higher to see more and more of the world
around you.
"I can see only a little bit of that, Charlie, and I won't go much higher
than I am now, but you'll keep climbing up and up, and see more and more,
and each step will open new worlds that you never even knew existed." She
frowned. "I hope ... I just hope to God-"
"What?"
"Never mind, Charles. Ijust hope I wasn't wrong to advise you to go into
this in the first place."
I laughed. "How could that be? It worked, didn't it? Even Algernon is still
smart."
We sat there silently for a while and I knew what she was thinking about
as she watched me toying with the chain of my rabbit's foot and my keys. I
didn't want to think of that possibility any more than elderly people want to
think of death. I knew that this was only the beginning. I knew what she
meant about levels because I'd seen some of them already. The thought of
leaving her behind made me sad.
I'm in love with Miss Kinnian.

Read the passage below. Then, in your own words, explain how the connotations of the italicized words help to create a professional yet critical tone.



I'm glad we had a chance to conduct final interviews with the two candidates for the Muscle Power Protein Shake sales position. Before we vote, I'd like to share some observations about the first candidate, Tom. Tom seemed a bit modest during the interview, not wanting to speak up about himself. But when he did finally get going, he was overly complimentary about his own accomplishments. In addition, I should add that this is a sales position, so much time will be spent interacting with customers. As far as personal appearance, Tom is quite slender, which could be an issue, given the product he's selling. So, you could say I was underwhelmed by this candidate.

It's a lovely summer day, and Larry and Charity have an hour of free time before Charity's bobsled tryout. They decide to go to Spollen Park to play Frisbee. The park is huge and has very high walls and gates that are locked every night at sunset, though park rangers do patrol late at night. As they're playing, Larry accidentally throws the Frisbee high up in a tree. He slowly walks to the tree trunk, but when he looks up, he instantly gets dizzy and nervous. Charity shoves him aside and climbs the tree to get the Frisbee. Way up in the tree, though, Charity's foot gets stuck in a branch, and she can't get unstuck by herself. Way down below, Larry yells for Charity to hurry up, and just then he notices that the sun is starting to set. He looks up, and Charity is scowling down at him with her arms crossed.
