Phillis Wheatley was the first African-American woman to publish a book of poetry in America, and she did so while enslaved by John and Susannah Wheatley. During her time of enslavement, Wheatley was converted to Christianity, and many of her poems deal with Christian themes. One such poem, "On Being Brought from Africa to America" discusses Wheatley's faith as well as her thoughts on slavery. Though the poem, at first glance, appears to show a sincere, even grateful Wheatley discussing her faith and the "mercy" that brought her from Africa to America, a closer look reveals a more rebellious tone beneath.

Prompt:

After reading "On Being Brought from Africa to America," respond to the following question(s) with AT LEAST 150 words:

Through her poem, how does Wheatley rebel against the prevailing notion at the time that black, enslaved Americans were inferior to their white counterparts? In other words, how does she prove that this racist stereotype is false?

Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question.

[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.

[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.

[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.

[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.

Select two key details that could be included in a summary of the myth.

a Bacchus sent Midas to the river to wash away his golden touch.
b Bacchus sometimes found his teacher Silenus missing.
c Midas could not eat because of the wish Bacchus granted.
d Midas entertained Silenus in his kingdom for ten days.
e Silenus was found by peasants and carried to Midas.

our mountain regions are unique and beautiful places. We must preserve them for future generations. One of the most serlous threats to our
mountains is ridgetop development. Large housing developments built on steep slopes and along mountain ridges are unsightly. Also, they
adversely affect the scenic views that draw tourists to our region each year.
Who wants to drive to the mountains to see not the lovely tree-
covered outline of the gently sloping mountain ridges against the sky, but rows of houses jutting from the ridges and slopes with little or no tree
cover between them? With tourism as the biggest industry in our area, maintaining our scenic ridgelines is crucial to continued economic
success here.
Ridgetop development not only detracts from scenic mountain views and
threatens our area's top industry, it also harms the environment.
Stripping large areas to create multiple building sites removes the trees and other plants. These resources provide natural erosion barriers on
steep slopes. Large housing developments on ridges often Increase erosion and runoff into streams and rivers.
