Asummer to remember
(1) when my parents told me i had to spend the summer with my uncle graham and aunt minnie, i begged them not to make me go. (2) however, i still found myself on a bus heading west.
(3) my uncle picked me up at the station, and i didn’t say much on the drive to his house. (4) i spent the day alone in the guest room, feeling absolutely miserable. (5) i covered my face with a pillow and hoped my sniffles were inaudible to everyone else in the house. (6) that first day, i emerged from the room only to eat meals with my aunt and uncle. (7) wondering what my mom was cooking at home, i stared at the chicken on my plate at dinner.
(8) the next morning, i awoke to an endless knocking on my door. (9) my aunt brought some food into my room. (10) aunt minnie placed the tray on the dresser and sat on the edge of my bed. (11) “because i have talked to your mom, i know that you love banana bread, annette. (12) i’m making some just especially for you,” she said, and i smiled.
(13) after breakfast, i went downstairs and spent time with my little cousin, lena. (14) she had wooden dolls that wore cute clothes. (15) i haven’t played with dolls in years, but it was fun. (16) afterward, i worked with my aunt in the garden, planting seeds for the first time in my life. (17) uncle graham brought home a dvd to watch after dinner. (18) we ate popcorn and laughed through the entire movie. (19) i began to realize that people choose to have fun or be unhappy. (20) the next day, we went to a neighbor’s house for a barbecue. (21) i met a boy named will and his sister, toni. (22) we have many similiar interests. (23) they invited me to go to the pool the next day. (24) uncle graham said i could go (but only if i promised to have fun).
(25) i spent the next afternoon at the pool with my new friends. (26) i met some other kids they knew, and we made exciting plans for the summer. (27) when i got home, aunt minnie said she was planning a surprise birthday party for uncle graham. (28) she asked me to organize it, and i enthusiastically agreed. (29) at that moment, i was certain that forgetting the events of this summer would be as likely as forgetting my own name. (30) this summer was great!

After depriving her of all rights as a married woman, if single, and the owner of property, he has taxed her to support a government which recognizes her only when her property can be made profitable to it…. he has denied her the facilities for obtaining a thorough education, all colleges being closed against her…. he has usurped the prerogative of jehovah himself, claiming it as his right to assign for her a sphere of action, when that belongs to her conscience and to her god. he has endeavored, in every way that he could, to destroy her confidence in her own powers, to lessen her self-respect, and to make her willing to lead a dependent and abject life. now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one-half the people of this country, their social and religious degradation--in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved, oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of the united states. read the passage on the left to answer the following questions: 4) in what manner was this document patterned off of the preamble to the declaration of independence? a) it uses the same language, but frames women being oppressed by men instead of the 13 colonies being oppressed by the british. b) it uses different language, but argues for a society in which men and women separate like the colonists separated from the british. c) it uses the same language, but frames the notion of men standing up for women instead of the 13 colonies standing up to the british. d) it uses different language, but argues for a society in which men and women join forces to attack the injustices that plague both sexes.
