Colony nesters make up about 13% of all bird species. Each of these nesting locations must be surrounded by the nests of other birds of a same kind. The location of these grouped nests is referred to as a rookery.
Many different species of birds have been observed to gather in groups of differing sizes; a group of nesting birds is referred to as a breeding colony.

Life of Jacqueline B. Kennedy
adapted from John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum
Jacqueline Lee Bouvier was born on July 28, 1929, in Southampton, New York. Her father, John, was a wealthy stockbroker on Wall Street whose family had come from France in the early 1800s. Her mother, Janet, had ancestors from Ireland and England.
Janet Bouvier was an accomplished rider, and Jackie was only a year old when her mother first put her on a horse. By age 11, she had already won several national championships. Jackie also enjoyed reading. Before she started school, she had read all the children's books on her bookshelves. Her heroes were Mowgli from Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, Robin Hood, Little Lord Fauntleroy's grandfather, Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind, and the poet Byron. Mrs. Bouvier wondered if Jackie might one day be a writer.
After kindergarten, Jackie started first grade at Miss Chapin's School on East End Avenue in New York. One of her teachers, Miss Platt, thought Jackie was "a darling child, the prettiest little girl, very clever, very artistic, and full of the devil." At times she did get into mischief and would be sent to the headmistress, Miss Ethel Stringfellow, who wrote on her report card: "Jacqueline was given a D in Form because her disturbing conduct in her geography class made it necessary to exclude her from the room."
In June 1947, Jackie graduated from Miss Porter's School, a boarding school for girls in Connecticut. She continued her education at Vassar College in New York, where she studied history, literature, art, and French.
Jacqueline started her first job in the fall of 1951 as the "Inquiring Camera Girl" for the Washington Times-Herald newspaper. Roving around the city, she took pictures of people she encountered, asked them questions on the issues of the day, and wove their answers into her newspaper column. Among those she interviewed for her column was Richard M. Nixon. She also covered the first inauguration of Dwight D. Eisenhower and the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
During this time, Jacqueline met John F. Kennedy, who was a congressman and soon to be elected a Senator from Massachusetts. On September 12, 1953, they married at St. Mary's Church in Newport, Rhode Island. After their honeymoon in Mexico, the Kennedys returned to Washington D.C. Early on in their marriage, Senator Kennedy suffered crippling pain in his back from football and wartime injuries and had two operations. While recovering from surgery, Mrs. Kennedy encouraged him to write a book about several U.S. senators who had risked their careers to fight for the things they believed in. The book, called Profiles in Courage, was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for biography in 1957. That same year, the Kennedys' first child, Caroline, was born.
In January 1960, Senator John F. Kennedy announced his candidacy for the presidency of the United States. He began traveling all around the country and Jacqueline often accompanied him. During the campaign, she learned that she was pregnant and her doctors instructed her to remain at home. From there, she answered hundreds of campaign letters, taped TV commercials, gave interviews, and wrote a weekly newspaper column, Campaign Wife, which was distributed across the country. On November 8, 1960, John F. Kennedy beat Republican Richard M. Nixon in a very close race. Two and-a-half weeks later, Mrs. Kennedy gave birth to their second child, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr. On January 20, 1961, John Fitzgerald Kennedy took the oath of the office to become the nation's 35th president. At age 31, Jacqueline Kennedy was the first lady.

B. Reality can oftentimes seem like dream.
C. Winning is proof that a person has worked hard.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
Choice A would make sense for the first sentence, but not the rest. Choice B is supported by the part of the passage that says, "...I am weightless again, flying past the other runners". The choice C isn't supported whatsoever because the passage does not say whether or not Squeaky wins, nor does it talk about working hard to prepare for the race. The choice D is supported by the positive self-talk and the resulting physical response (running faster) that the passage describes. This is why I believe D is the best answer.

which element should not be included in an objective summary of a text?
A. a clear description of the central idea
B. Relevant supporting details
C. complete sentences
D. an evaluation of the event described in the text
Answer:
D. An evaluation of the event described in the text
Explanation:
A summary is a text that represents a shortened version of another text and contains its main ideas. What every summary should contain is a clear description of the central idea and relevant supporting details. There shouldn't be too much detail, though, as the purpose of a summary is to relay the most important ideas. Everything should be written in complete, understandable sentences.
What shouldn't be included in an objective summary is an evaluation of the event described in a text. Objective summaries do not contain any personal feelings or beliefs, and thus, evaluations are not needed.

B. to remove from sight or consideration
C. to move along swiftly, violently, or overwhelmingly
D. to clean with, or as if with, a broom or brush
Answer:
C. To move along swiftly, violently, or overwhelmingly
Explanation:
Some words have multiple meanings, and the verb to sweep is one of them. To determine what meaning the word has exactly, we need to take the context into consideration. The dust that sweeps across the city is the dust that moves along the city swiftly, violently. The rest of the meanings are incorrect as they can't be applied in the given context.

“Hanging Fire”
by Audre Lorde
I am fourteen
and my skin has betrayed me
the boy I cannot live without
still sucks his thumb
in secret
how come my knees are
always so ashy
what if I die
before the morning comes
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
I have to learn how to dance
in time for the next party
my room is too small for me
suppose I die before graduation
they will sing sad melodies
but finally
tell the truth about me
There is nothing I want to do
and too much
that has to be done
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
Nobody even stops to think
about my side of it
I should have been on Math Team
my marks were better than his
why do I have to be
the one
wearing braces
I have nothing to wear tomorrow
will I live long enough
to grow up
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.

Sugar plantations were Hell because of the endless labor they demanded from slaves. They were Hell because of the many dangers and the injuries that they caused. They were Hell because the slaves who labored without end got nothing for their work—except to live another day, to work more. But none of these miseries was the true reason the plantations were so evil. The plantations were Hell because the masters and overseers were treated as gods—which turned them into devils. The English historian Lord Acton famously said, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That is a perfect description of sugar Hell. Men with absolute power over their slaves acted like creatures we would otherwise meet only in nightmares. Their cruelty had no limit—they preferred to kill their slaves rather than fear them.

31st. Set forward to Stowey at half-past five. A violent storm in the wood; sheltered under the hollies. When we left home the moon immensely large, the sky scattered over with clouds. These soon closed in, contracting the dimensions of the moon without concealing her. The sound of the pattering shower, and the gusts of wind, very grand. Left the wood when nothing remained of the storm but the driving wind, and a few scattering drops of rain. Presently all clear, Venus first showing herself between the struggling clouds; afterwards Jupiter appeared. The hawthorn hedges, black and pointed, glittering with millions of diamond drops; the hollies shining with broader patches of light. The road to the village of Holford glittered like another stream. On our return, the wind high—a violent storm of hail and rain at the Castle of Comfort. All the Heavens seemed in one perpetual motion when the rain ceased; the moon appearing, now half veiled, and now retired behind heavy clouds, the stars still moving, the roads very dirty
