excerpt adapted from The School Days of an Indian Girlfrom American Indian Storiesby Zitkala-Sa (Gertrude Simmons Bonnin)There were eight in our party of bronzed children who were going East with the missionaries. Among us were three young braves, two tall girls, and we three little ones, Judéwin, Thowin, and I.We had been very impatient to start on our journey to the Red Apple Country, which, we were told, lay a little beyond the great circular horizon of the Western prairie. Under a sky of rosy apples we dreamt of roaming as freely and happily as we had chased the cloud shadows on the Dakota plains. We had anticipated much pleasure from a ride on the iron horse, but the throngs of staring palefaces disturbed and troubled us.On the train, fair women, with tottering babies on each arm, stopped their haste and scrutinized the children of absent mothers. Large men, with heavy bundles in their hands, halted near by, and riveted their glassy blue eyes upon us.I sank deep into the corner of my seat, for I resented being watched. Directly in front of me, children who were no larger than I hung themselves upon the backs of their seats, with their bold white faces toward me. Sometimes they took their forefingers out of their mouths and pointed at my moccasined feet. Their mothers, instead of reproving such rude curiosity, looked closely at me, and attracted their children's further notice to my blanket. This embarrassed me, and kept me constantly on the verge of tears.I sat perfectly still, with my eyes downcast, daring only now and then to shoot long glances around me. Chancing to turn to the window at my side, I was quite breathless upon seeing one familiar object. It was the telegraph pole which strode by at short paces. Very near my mother's dwelling, along the edge of a road thickly bordered with wild sunflowers, some poles like these had been planted by white men. Often I had stopped, on my way down the road, to hold my ear against the pole, and, hearing its low moaning, I used to wonder what the paleface had done to hurt it. Now I sat watching for each pole that glided by to be the last one.In this way I had forgotten my uncomfortable surroundings, when I heard one of my comrades call out my name. I saw the missionary standing very near, tossing candies and gums into our midst. This amused us all, and we tried to see who could catch the most of the sweetmeats. Though we rode several days inside of the iron horse, I do not recall a single thing about our luncheons.It was night when we reached the school grounds. The lights from the windows of the large buildings fell upon some of the icicled trees that stood beneath them. We were led toward an open door, where the brightness of the lights within flooded out over the heads of the excited palefaces who blocked our way. My body trembled more from fear than from the snow I trod upon.29Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu.Read the excerpt.

Can you give me a postive response to this text?One of my biggest fears are heights. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll get on a plane and a roller coaster ride but I’ll always be hesitant and anxious. You won’t see me climbing no mountain or climbing up no tree, not at this age. The movie Final Destination and the attack on 9/11 have conditioned me to be less willing to go to amusement parks and less likely to book the room on the top floor. Knowing that technical malfunctions happen frequently at amusement parks as a kid, the movie final destination showed me these scenarios can pan out much differently. I didn’t realize this was a fear of mine until I found myself sitting out on the drop tower in Kings Dominion. I said to myself “nah that’s too high.” Whenever I book a hotel it’s the bottom floor. When I go to sign my lease I need a bottom floor. I’m not afraid I’m just not having it. Better safe than sorry.
