36.“You have just said the most . . . the most poetic thing, Geraldine Moore,” said Mrs. Scott. Her hands flew up to touch the silk scarf around her neck. “Nothing lovely’s been happening in my life.” She repeated it so quietly that everyone had to lean forward to hear. 37 “Class,” Mrs. Scott said very sadly, clearing her throat, “you have just heard the best poem you will ever hear.” She went to the board and stood there for a long time staring at the chalk in her hand.

38 “I’d like you to copy it down,” she said. She wrote it just as Geraldine had said it, bad grammar and all.

the answer:

in the first part of the story running is all that matters to squeaky. running gives her confidence and defines who she is. at the beginning of the story she says that other kids call her mercury because she runs very fast. in the text she refers to herself as "miss quicksilver".

the line that provides the best evidence that squeaky has self-confidence is

" and i continue with my breathing exercise, strolling down broadway toward the ice cream man on 145th with not a care in the world cause i am miss quicksilver herself".

halibut, flounder, tuna, and trout are all fish. so your first answer is 1.) fish. and since fish is edible, your next answer would be 3). edible

to describe those fishes more thoroughly, some of those fishes live in fresh water, and some of the fishes live in salt water, and that is not a thing that they all have in common. the question is asking what is common with all of the fish, so answer choices 2). fresh water and 4). salt water are not right.
