Question 8( Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) (MC)
Read this excerpt from Little Brother and answer the following question
Marcus manages to flag down a vehicle and they get more than they bargained for...
It was a military-looking Jeep, like an armored Hummer, only it didn't have any military insignia on it The car skidded to a stop just in front of me, and I jumped back and lost my balance and
ended up on the road. I felt the doors open near me, and then saw a confusion of booted feet moving close by I looked up and saw a bunch of military-looking guys in coveralls, holding big,
bulky rifles and wearing hooded gas masks with tinted face-plates
I barely had time to register them before those rifles were pointed at me. I'd never looked down the barrel of a gun before, but everything you ve heard about the experience is true You
freeze where you are, time stops, and your heart thunders in your ears. I opened my mouth, then shut it, then, very slowly, I held my hands up in front of me
The faceless, eyeless armed man above me kept his gun very level. I didn't even breathe Van was screaming something and Jolu was shouting and I looked at them for a second and that
was when someone put a coarse sack over my head and cinched it tight around my windpipe, so quick and so fiercely I barely had time to gasp before it was locked on me I was pushed
roughly but dispassionately onto my stomach and something went twice around my wrists and then tightened up as well, feeling like baling wire and biting cruelly I cried out and my own
voice was muffled by the hood
Which line best shows the conflict in the passage?
The car skidded to a stop just in front of me, and I jumped back and lost my balance
I barely had time to register them before those nifles were pointed at me
Van was screaming something and Jolu was shouting
I cried out and my own voice was muffled by the hood

Match each excerpt to the correct stanza structure. it was many and many a year ago, in a kingdom by the sea, that a maiden there lived whom you may know by the name of annabel lee; and this maiden she lived with no other thought than to love and be loved by me. (from "annabel lee" by edgar allan poe) o thou, new-year, delaying long, delayest the sorrow in my blood, that longs to burst a frozen bud and flood a fresher throat with song. (from "in memoriam" by alfred lord tennyson) nature’s first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold. her early leaf’s a flower but only so an hour. then leaf subsides to leaf. so eden sank to grief,; so dawn goes down to day. nothing gold can stay. (from "nothing gold can stay" by robert frost) at sestos hero dwelt; hero the fair, whom young apollo courted for her hair, and offered as a dower his burning throne, where she should sit for men to gaze upon. the outside of her garments were of lawn, the lining purple silk, with gilt stars drawn; (from "hero and leander" by christopher marlowe) quatrain couplet octave sestet
