She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister’s arms. When the storm of grief had spent itself she went away to her room alone. She would have no one follow her.

There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pressed down by a physical exhaustion that haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul.

She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. In the street below a peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which some one was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves.

There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled one above the other in the west facing her window.

She sat with her head thrown back upon the cushion of the chair, quite motionless, except when a sob came up into her throat and shook her, as a child who has cried itself to sleep continues to sob in its dreams.

She was young, with a fair, calm face, whose lines bespoke repression and even a certain strength. But now there was a dull stare in her eyes, whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky. It was not a glance of reflection, but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought.

There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know; it was too subtle and elusive to name. But she felt it, creeping out of the sky, reaching toward her through the sounds, the scents, the color that filled the air.

Now her bosom rose and fell tumultuously. She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her, and she was striving to beat it back with her will—as powerless as her two white slender hands would have been.

When she abandoned herself a little whispered word escaped her slightly parted lips. She said it over and over under the breath: “Free, free, free!” The vacant stare and the look of terror that had followed it went from her eyes. They stayed keen and bright. Her pulses beat fast, and the coursing blood warmed and relaxed every inch of her body.

She did not stop to ask if it were or were not a monstrous joy that held her. A clear and exalted perception enabled her to dismiss the suggestion as trivial.

The phrase “monstrous joy” in the first sentence of paragraph 10 is an example of
A.
onomatopoeia
B.
euphony
C.
personification
D.
oxymoron
E.

However they obtained it, the Greeks couldn’t resist adding their own original “explanations” to the definitions. For example, a Greek writer named Horapollo said correctly that the picture of a goose stood for the word “son.” But then he explained that this was because geese took spe­cial care of their young, which was completely inaccurate. He wrote that the image of a rabbit meant “open” because a rabbit's eyes never close—an equally false statement.

Ashley and Sarah are good friends, and both are students at the same high school. Ashley is concerned about Sarah, who eats indiscriminately. Whenever they talk, the conversation usually turns into a discussion of food and weight maintenance. Sarah seems to know the calorie count and number of fat grams of every food that she and Ashley eat. Recently, Ashley was surprised to see Sarah happily eat an entire box of chocolates at one time. Ashley and Sarah go to the gym to work out three to four times a week. However, Sarah has now started working out every day, and often twice a day. Sarah always grumbles to Ashley about how fat she looks. Ashley thinks that Sarah has lost a lot of weight, but finds it hard to tell because Sarah is usually wearing a baggy sweat suit even on hot days. Whenever they go out to eat, Sarah rushes to the bathroom after eating. Ashley can often hear water running. She has noticed marks that look like bite marks on Sarah's knuckles, and she saw a bottle of laxatives in her friend’s locker. Ashley is very worried, because Sarah even fainted in class on a recent day.
