Read the two excerpts and make connections between them based on the evidence in the texts. Passage 1: “The ancient Assyrians, four thousand years ago, had an instrument they called a chetarah….The ancient Hebrews had their kinnura, the Chaldeans their quitra, and the Greeks their cithara and citharis—which Greek writers of the day were careful to emphasize were not the same instrument…members of a family of musical instruments called fides—a word that is ancient Greek for ‘strings.’ From the fides family, it is easy to draw lines to the medieval French Vielle, the German fiedel, the English fithele or fiddle, and the vihuela, national instrument of medieval Spain.

Passage 2: “This degree may be earned with a major in (1) performance; (2) general, choral and instrumental music; (3)composition; (4) music theory; (5) jazz studies; or (6) music history and literature. The student who majors in performance may choose piano (performance), piano (pedagogy), organ (performance), organ (church, music),harpsichord, voice or an orchestral instrument, including harp, classical guitar and multiple woodwinds, as the area of choice.” These passages demonstrate what shared attribute of expository text?
a) There are a variety of ways to organize texts to make the information more clear. b) There are no similarities between these two texts, since they are on completely different subjects.
c) These texts are connected because they both include details that do not matter and should be left out.
d) There are similarities in the syntax. They use a form of narrative syntax to make the ideas flow more smoothly.

What theme is the main theme of this excerpt from the metal pig by hans christian andersen? in the garden of the grand duke's palace under the roof of one of the wings were a thousand roses bloom in winter, a little ragged boy had been sitting the whole day long. the boy might serve as a type of italy lovely and smiling and yet suffering. he was hungry and thirsty but no one gave him anything and when it became dark and they were about to close the gardens, the porter turned him out. a long time he stood musing on the bridge which crosses the arno and looking at the glittering stars that were reflected in the water which flowed between him and the wonderful marble bridge trinita. he then walked away towards the metal pig, half note down, clasped it with his arms, and, putting his mouth to the shining snout, drink deep droughts of the fresh water. close-by lay a few salad leaves into chestnuts, which register for his supper. no one was in the street but himself. it belonged only to him. he boldly seated himself on the pig's back, leaned forward so that his curly head could rest on the head of the animal, and, before he was aware, fell asleep. it was midnight. the metal pig raised himself gently, and the boy heard him say quite distinctly, hold tight little boy, for i am going to run, and way he started for most wonderful ride first they arrived at the p as the del granduca and the metal horse which bears the dukes statue made allowed
