The Academy Awards introduced a new category last year for Animated Feature Film. The first winner, announced just a few weeks ago, was Shrek. Ticket prices in our area during the run of this film were approximately $8.50.      For the year I was born, Oliver! won both musical score and best picture. During that year, my parents could purchase a movie ticket for about $1.25. Had they seen a musical on Broadway, tickets would have cost about $15.00.     If ticket prices for musicals rose at the same rate as did those for movies, what would it cost to see a musical version of Shrek ? S = Shrek Musical price; 8.50 = Shrek movie price S/8.50 = 15.00/1.25 = (Oliver Musical)/(Oliver Movie)   S = 15.00 * 8.50 / 1.25 = 102.00 ans At the movie theater, 202 tickets are sold. A child ticket costs $6 and an adult ticket $10. How many tickets of each were sold if the receipts totaled $1708? 6c + 10a = receipts ; a + c = 202;  substitute for c to get number of adult tickets

DAUGHTER OF INVENTION by  Julia Alvarez 1991 FONT SIZE A A A A Alvarez was born in New York but spent the first ten years of her childhood in the Dominican Republic until her family had to flee the country due to her father’s involvement in a political rebellion. The following story is from the novel  How the García Girls Lost Their Accents , which is about the lives of four sisters spanning thirty years in both the United States and the Dominican Republic. In this short story, Yolanda struggles to write a speech for school. "Untitled" by Jess Waters is licensed under CC0. [1] She wanted to invent something, my mother. There was a period after we arrived in this country, until five or so years later, when my mother was inventing. They were never pressing, global needs she was addressing with her pencil and pad. She would have said that was for men to do, rockets and engines that ran on gasoline and turned the wheels of the world. She was just f

Roald Dahl (1916-1990) was a British novelist, short story writer, and poet. Dahl’s books are known for their unexpected endings and often darkly comic themes. In this short story, a woman is betrayed by her husband and retaliates in an extreme way. As you read, take note of how Mary’s emotions about her husband change throughout the text. The room was warm and clean, the curtains drawn, the two table lamps alight1 — hers and the one by the empty chair opposite. On the sideboard behind her, two tall glasses, soda water, whiskey. Fresh ice cubes in the Thermos2 bucket. Mary Maloney was waiting for her husband to come home from work. Now and again she would glance up at the clock, but without anxiety, merely to please herself with the thought that each minute gone by made it nearer the time when he would come. There was a slow smiling air about her, and about everything she did. The drop of a head as she bent over her sewing was curiously tranquil. Her skin — for this was her sixth

“The Scholarship Jacket” is one of the best-known stories by Mexican American author Marta Salinas. It describes a difficult situation that Marta, called “Martha” by her teacher, is faced with after she earns excellent grades in school. As you read this story, take notes on the descriptive language and word choice that help reveal Marta’s point of view. The small Texas school that I went to had a tradition carried out every year during the eighth-grade graduation: a beautiful gold and green jacket (the school colors) was awarded to the class valedictorian, the student who had maintained the highest grades for eight years. The scholarship jacket had a big gold S on the left front side and your name written in gold letters on the pocket. T My oldest sister, Rosie, had won the jacket a few years back, and I fully expected to also. I was fourteen and in the eighth grade. I had been a straight A student since the first grade and this last year had looked forward very much to owning tha
