Read the excerpt from A Short Walk Around the Pyramids
through the World of Art
In the past the Kota spoke to the bones of their ancestors
before making important decisions. They stored the bones in small baskets
woven of rolls of bark or leaves. Sculpture such as this piece- which is called a Kota funerary figure -was tied to the top of the baskets. We are not certain what the gure meant to the figure meant to Kota. Which text feature would best help the reader under
this excerpt?

a sidebar about other Afncan tribes
a glossary to define the word "funerary"
a graph showing the number of Kota sculptures
a chapter heading to summarize the text

Returning from vietnam, we were given a parade. crowds of screaming people waving signs — not just on one road, one day. no, they were everywhere. every day. on the streets, on the television, on the radio. a hot, angry tangle of shaking fists and ugly words that threatened us like a monster with a hundred heads. our country had chewed us up and spit us out, and now we were being treated as if it were our fault. which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone? a. our feet were frozen in place as the street itself strained to hold us back. b. i felt unappreciated and condemned for actions i had thought were heroic. c. i hadn't expected to find myself in a rags-to-riches situation such as this. d. we had come home to a feeding frenzy and were being treated as bait.
