This is an extraordinary, curious, and remarkably industrious little insect, to which mankind are indebted for one of the most palatable and wholesome sweets which nature affords and which was one of the choice articles with which the promised land was said to abound.
In every hive of bees, there are three kinds: the queen, the drones, and the laborers. Of these last, there are by far the greatest number and as cold weather approaches, they drive from the hives and destroy the drones that have not labored in summer and will not let them eat in winter. If bees are examined through a glass hive, all appears at first like confusion; but, on a more careful inspection, every animal is found regularly employed. It is very delightful, when the maple and other trees are in bloom or the clover in the meadows, to be abroad and hear their busy hum.
Which sentence is an important point in the passage?

A.

Bees seem to be very confused at first, but are very organized.

B.

Nature affords humans wholesome, natural sweets.

C.

Bees are a remarkable, industrious little insect.

D.

It is very delightful to hear the bees hum.

Read the excerpts from “take the tortillas out of your poetry” and “speaking arabic.” my friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. he took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of spanish, english, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. in other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry. at a neighborhood fair in texas, somewhere between the german oom-pah sausage stand and the mexican gorditas booth, i overheard a young man say to his friend, “i wish i had a heritage. sometimes i feel—so lonely for one.” and the tall american trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head. which best states how the structures of both excerpts support ideas about cultural diversity? each incorporates non-english words. each incorporates academic words. each incorporates offensive words. each incorporates nonsense words.
