  • Q #1: Dear Aunt Suzanne I have a few minutes before I get on the bus from Galway back to Dublin and wanted to tell you how my class trip to Ireland is going. We just spent 2 days on Inis Mor, the largest of the Aran Islands, which are just off the central west coast of Ireland. We took a ferry from Galway, a ride that takes about an hour and was quite gray and stormy. For an island that is only about 12 square miles, there is a lot to do and see on Inis Mor! After eating steak and vegetable stew and brown bread with butter, we went to the sweater market, where all kinds of woolen products are sold. The Aran Islands are known for their wool because sheep thrive here and generations have used woolen sweaters and hats to survive long cold days of fishing on the open sea. In fact, I learned that each family or clan has its own signature knitting pattern and some are able to tell which family someone belongs to by the pattern of their sweater! The Healy pattern is an interesting combination of twists and braids, and I found you a birthday souvenir with a beautiful example The next day, we rented bicycles and toured the island. We say ancient ruins, a prehistoric hill fort, and a white sand beach. We also cimbed down to a mysterious rack formation known as "The Worm Hole." a rectangular hole in a stone shore that fills with thrashing waves and looks like it houses a terrible serpent (see attached photo). The Worm Hole was difficult to find, and when we stopped someone for directions, she only spoke Gaelic! Sometimes this island seems stuck in an earlier time. I'm excited to see you when I get home. I have lots more pictures to share! Which of the following details supports the inference that Eva's family has Irish roots?

    A. Eva has found an example of the Healy knitting pattern for her aunt

    B. Eva is learning about the culture and traditions in ireland.

    C. Eva is communicating with her aunt while on a class trip to Ireland.

    D. Eva is taking a lot of pictures while on her trip to Ireland.

    Answer Explanation

    This suggests that Eva's family is connected to Irish culture, as the Healy pattern is associated with Irish families or clans, indicating a heritage or interest in Irish traditions.

  • Q #3: In 1943, the war in the Pacific raged on. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt went to rally the troops' spirits, despite the disapproval of military command. Roosevelt planned a grueling itinerary. She visited several islands and hundreds of wounded in her first 6 days. The indefatigable First Lady inspected Navy hospitals, delivered a speech, attended receptions, and visited convalescing officers, all within 12 hours of her arrival. She lifted spirits among the wounded and morale among the troops.
