Read the excerpt below from “Araby” by James Joyce and answer the question that follows.

Every morning I lay on the floor in the front parlour watching her door. The blind was pulled down to within an inch of the sash so that I could not be seen. When she came out on the doorstep my heart leaped. I ran to the hall, seized my books and followed her. I kept her brown figure always in my eye and, when we came near the point at which our ways diverged, I quickened my pace and passed her. This happened morning after morning. I had never spoken to her, except for a few casual words, and yet her name was like a summons to all my foolish blood.

Her image accompanied me even in places the most hostile to romance. On Saturday evenings when my aunt went marketing I had to go to carry some of the parcels. We walked through the flaring streets, jostled by drunken men and bargaining women, amid the curses of labourers, the shrill litanies of shop-boys who stood on guard by the barrels of pigs’ cheeks, the nasal chanting of street-singers, who sang a come-all-you about O’Donovan Rossa, or a ballad about the troubles in our native land. These noises converged in a single sensation of life for me: I imagined that I bore my chalice safely through a throng of foes. Her name sprang to my lips at moments in strange prayers and praises which I myself did not understand. My eyes were often full of tears (I could not tell why) and at times a flood from my heart seemed to pour itself out into my bosom. I thought little of the future. I did not know whether I would ever speak to her or not or, if I spoke to her, how I could tell her of my confused adoration. But my body was like a harp and her words and gestures were like fingers running upon the wires.

One evening I went into the back drawing-room in which the priest had died. It was a dark rainy evening and there was no sound in the house. Through one of the broken panes I heard the rain impinge upon the earth, the fine incessant needles of water playing in the sodden beds. Some distant lamp or lighted window gleamed below me. I was thankful that I could see so little. All my senses seemed to desire to veil themselves and, feeling that I was about to slip from them, I pressed the palms of my hands together until they trembled, murmuring: “O love! O love!” many times.

At last she spoke to me. When she addressed the first words to me I was so confused that I did not know what to answer. She asked me was I going to Araby. I forgot whether I answered yes or no. It would be a splendid bazaar, she said she would love to go.

“And why can’t you?” I asked.

While she spoke she turned a silver bracelet round and round her wrist. She could not go, she said, because there would be a retreat that week in her convent. Her brother and two other boys were fighting for their caps and I was alone at the railings. She held one of the spikes, bowing her head towards me. The light from the lamp opposite our door caught the white curve of her neck, lit up her hair that rested there and, falling, lit up the hand upon the railing. It fell over one side of her dress and caught the white border of a petticoat, just visible as she stood at ease.

“It’s well for you,” she said.

“If I go,” I said, “I will bring you something.”

What innumerable follies laid waste my waking and sleeping thoughts after that evening! I wished to annihilate the tedious intervening days. I chafed against the work of school. At night in my bedroom and by day in the classroom her image came between me and the page I strove to read. The syllables of the word Araby were called to me through the silence in which my soul luxuriated and cast an Eastern enchantment over me. I asked for leave to go to the bazaar on Saturday night. My aunt was surprised and hoped it was not some Freemason affair. I answered few questions in class. I watched my master’s face pass from amiability to sternness; he hoped I was not beginning to idle. I could not call my wandering thoughts together. I had hardly any patience with the serious work of life which, now that it stood between me and my desire, seemed to me child’s play, ugly monotonous child’s play.

What do the images in paragraph 3 seem to foreshadow?
A.
Distance will play a role in the resolution of the story.
B.
The bazaar will be rained out.
C.
The boy’s wishes will be unfulfilled.
D.
Love will overcome any obstacles put in the boy’s way.
E.
The drawing room will burn down.

Robert Falcon Scott

In the late 1800s, Antarctica was the last continent on Earth that had yet to be explored. Explorers from all over the world planned expeditions to claim what they could of the icy, untouched terrain. The ultimate goal was to be the first to reach the South Pole.
The first man from Great Britain to attempt the feat was a man named Robert Falcon Scott. On his first polar journey from 1901-1904, he fell short of reaching the Pole, but still returned home a hero. Not only had he set a new record for the farthest southern point ever reached, he also had conducted important scientific work along the way.
Three years later, however, a new record was set. Ernest Shackleton, one of the men from Scott's previous expedition, had set out on his own and come even closer to the Pole-though he still did not reach it. Shackleton was made a knight when he returned home to Great Britain. When Scott learned of his colleague's failed attempt, a new fire was lit in him.
Across the North Sea, another explorer by the name of Roald Amundsen was also determined to be the first person to reach the South Pole. Amundsen's dream from the time he was a child was to be the first to reach the North Pole. However, when that dream was shattered when other explorers beat him to it, Amundsen shifted his focus south. Some reports say that he began making plans in secret because he was afraid his government would stop him. Others say it was to avoid increasing British competition.
Both Amundsen and Scott planned carefully and had years of expertise and experience on their side. Their objectives and tactics, however, varied, and ultimately determined who won the race. For example, Scott included a scientist in his crew to conduct experiments, as he had before. To him, this was an important aim of exploration. Alternatively, the only purpose of Amundsen's expedition was to reach the Pole. This exclusive focus gave Amundsen the benefit of being able to put all his energy and resources toward his goal.
Another major difference was the explorers' strategies for crossing the harsh Antarctica terrain. Amundsen used highly trained dogs to pull sleds, which made travel swift and efficient. The Norwegian team was also skilled on skis, which was a significant advantage.
Although Scott's original plan included motorized sleds, these were soon abandoned because of mechanical failures. His team was left to rely on dogs and ponies that were not as well adapted to polar conditions as Amundsen's dogs. As men were forced to return to the base camp with the dogs and ponies, the remaining men pulled the sleds themselves, which was difficult and slow. Scott's choice to use ponies was harmful to the expedition in other ways. This proved detrimental on their return journey.
Scott's push for the South Pole began three weeks later than Amundsen's. While Amundsen had exceptionally good weather for travel, Scott experienced the opposite. He wrote, "Our luck in weather is preposterous." From December 4 to December 8, 1911, Scott and his crew were confined to their tents-forced to wait out a series of howling blizzards. As they ate away their precious rations, time slipped through their hands. By the time Scott's party reached the South Pole on January 17, 1912, the Norwegians had come and gone.
Scott's log records: "This is an awful place and terrible enough for us to have labored to it without reward of priority." They had lost crucial time in reaching the Pole and now faced the grim prospect of heading back to their base camp during the increasingly frigid Antarctic autumn. It was a journey they would never complete.

Which statement is an objective summary of the passage?
Robert Falcon Scott was not the first person to reach the South Pole, but he was the bravest and smartest explorer to try.
Robert Falcon Scott had a perfectly planned expedition to the South Pole that failed because of bad luck.
Robert Falcon Scott attempted to reach the South Pole first, but was beaten there by Roald Amundsen.
Robert Falcon Scott succeeded in reaching the South Pole after he first made a failed attempt.
