Which two sentences in this excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams" seem to foreshadow Dexter's future obsession with "possessing
Judy Jones?
Now. of course, the quality and the seasonability of these winter dreams varied, but the stuff of them remained. They persuaded Dexter several
years later to pass up a business course at the State university- his father, prospering now, would have paid his way—for the precarious
advantage of attending an older and more famous university in the East, where he was bothered by his scanty funds. But do not get the
impression because his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich that there was anything merely snobbish in
the boy. He wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people-he wanted the glittering things themselves. Often he reached
out for the best without knowing why he wanted it--and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life
indulges.

Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

I was eager to hear any one speak of slavery. I was a ready listener. Every little while, I could hear something about the abolitionists. It was some time before I found what the word meant. It was always used in such connections as to make it an interesting word to me. If a slave ran away and succeeded in getting clear, or if a slave killed his master, set fire to a barn, or did any thing very wrong in the mind of a slaveholder, it was spoken of as the fruit of abolition. Hearing the word in this connexion very often, I set about learning what it meant. The dictionary afforded me little or no help. I found it was "the act of abolishing;" but then I did not know what was to be abolished. Here I was perplexed.

Douglass’s purpose in this excerpt is to

argue against abolition.
explain his discovery of abolition.
teach the history of abolition.

(1) I had known for a long time that the people about me used a method of communication different from mine; and even before I knew that a deaf child could be taught to speak, I was conscious of dissatisfaction with the means of communication I already possessed. . . .

(2) In 1890 Mrs. Lamson, who had been one of Laura Bridgman’s teachers, and who had just returned from a visit to Norway and Sweden, came to see me, and told me of Ragnhild Kaata, a deaf and blind girl in Norway who had actually been taught to speak. Mrs. Lamson had scarcely finished telling me about this girl’s success before I was on fire with eagerness. I resolved that I, too, would learn to speak. I would not rest satisfied until my teacher took me, for advice and assistance, to Miss Sarah Fuller, principal of the Horace Mann School. This lovely, sweet-natured lady offered to teach me herself, and we began the twenty-sixth of March, 1890.

(3) Miss Fuller’s method was this: she passed my hand lightly over her face, and let me feel the position of her tongue and lips when she made a sound. I was eager to imitate every motion and in an hour had learned six elements of speech: M, P, A, S, T, I. Miss Fuller gave me eleven lessons in all. I shall never forget the surprise and delight I felt when I uttered my first connected sentence, “It is warm.” True, they were broken and stammering syllables; but they were human speech. My soul, conscious of new strength, came out of bondage, and was reaching through those broken symbols of speech to all knowledge and all faith.
