QUESTION 1

Choice A is the best answer. Throughout the passage, the narrator

refers to Miss Spivey’s 1938 class as “we” and “us” and describes

interactions between Miss Spivey and her students as a firsthand

observer, indicating that the narrator was a member of this 1938 class.

Therefore, the narrator of the passage can best be described as one of

Miss Spivey’s former students.Choice B is incorrect because the narrator refers to Miss Spivey’s

predecessor, Miss Chandler, by name, not as “I” or “me,” and

therefore the narrator isn’t Miss Spivey’s predecessor. Choice C is

incorrect because the passage identifies the narrator as a member of

Miss Spivey’s 1938 class and also mentions the narrator’s mother and

brother, Ralphord. Choice D is incorrect because the narrator refers to

Miss Spivey by name and as “she” and “her,” not as “I” or “me,” and

thus can’t be Miss Spivey hersel

QUESTION 2

Choice B is the best answer. The description of the train’s arrival in

the first paragraph suggests that Threestep is a rural town: instead of

a paved platform, the tracks are lined with “burned grass.” Meanwhile,

the description of the school in the sixth paragraph implies that the

community is small: instead of individual rooms for separate grade

levels, the school’s single room contains twenty-six students spread

“across seven grade levels.” Therefore, Threestep is mainly presented

in the passage as a small rural town.

Choice A is incorrect because the narrator describes Threestep

as uncomfortably hot for its residents, not as a summer retreat for

vacationers. Choice C is incorrect because Miss Spivey refers to

prominent universities located in other cities, not ones located in

Threestep. Choice D is incorrect because in the first paragraph

Threestep is characterized as a small rural town that is experiencing

“hard times,” not as a comfortable suburb.
