Ex 1 p 97 B. Why are the three words “though old so new” more important than anything else? No Libra sun No Halloween No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring But what it is, though old so new To fill your heart Like no three words could ever do The words “though old so new” are most important because they show that love is always fresh and real, no matter how long it’s been around. It’s the feeling that matters most, not special days or events.

Ex 5 p 99 Multiple Choice
Ex 5 p 99 Decide if the following statements are TRUE, FALSE or NOT STATED based on the text: Bill Bryson’s school science book was his favorite book at the time. The illustration showed a cross-section of the Earth as if it were a cake. Bill was most surprised that the Earth’s core was as hot as the sun. Bill’s mother was concerned because he never read before dinner. The science book did not answer questions about the sun inside the planet. Bill began to believe that there was a conspiracy among the science teachers at his school. Bill thought the textbook was very comprehensive but lacked illustrations. Not Stated: While the book was his “starting point,” the text doesn’t say it was his favorite book. False: The text states it was a cutaway diagram as if someone cut out a wedge, and not like a cake. Not Stated: While he was surprised about the core’s heat, he wondered “how they know that?” more than anything else, this is a key idea of his surprise. Not Stated: The text only says she felt his forehead and asked if he was okay, it does not suggest that he never read before dinner, or if she was concerned about this. True: The text says that the book “didn’t answer any of the questions that the illustrations stirred up in my mind” which includes the sun inside the planet. False: He suspected textbook authors, not science teachers, of being in a conspiracy. False: The text said that the text was not “altogether comprehensible” and that the illustrations where what stirred the questions, not that the illustrations where lacking. Not Stated False Not Stated Not Stated True False False
