My turn approached, so I gathered up my nerves and headed to the stage. As the crowd stilled, I adjusted the plano bench along with my formal evening gown that tralled out behind me just like a wedding dress. The first chord rang through the auditorium, and my nervousness was forgotten. Every note sang melodic perfection. Finally, I finished. Forgetting about my long dress, I pushed the piano bench out excitedly, which created a tangled mess of dress and piano bench legs. Suddenly, I was lying on the stage with my feet straight in the air. Quickly, I jumped up and took a bow while the crowd applauded wildly. Walking offstage, I couldn't stop smiling, knowing it was a night I would never forget. Which statement best describes the theme or author's purpose of this text? A.

here is a little bio that might help with the answer


hang-­bo’s job was to report business stories. He toured collective farms, shops, and factories with a notebook and tape recorder, interviewing the managers. Back in the newsroom, he would write his stories in fountain pen (there were no typewriters) about how well the economy was doing. He always put a positive spin on the facts, although he tried to keep them at least plausible. By the time they were edited by his superiors in Pyongyang, however, any glimmer of the truth was gone. Chang-­bo knew better than anyone that the supposed triumphs of the North Korean economy were fabrications. He had good reason to scoff at the report about the rubber boots.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which two words in this excerpt from Bram Stoker's Dracula add to the Gothic tone and mood of the novel?
Dracula by Bram Stoker (excerpt)
How shall I describe what we saw? On the bed lay two women, Lucy and her mother. The latter lay (farthest) in, and she was covered with a white
sheet, the edge of which had been blown back by the draught through the broken window, showing the drawn, white face, with a look of (terror) fixed upon it. By her side lay Lucy, with face white and still more drawn. The flowers which had been round her neck we found upon her
mother's bosom, and her throat was bare, showing the two little wounds which we had noticed before, but looking horribly white and (mangled.) Without a word the Professor bent over the bed, his head almost touching poor Lucy's breast; then he gave a quick turn of his head, as of one who listens, and (leaping) to his feet, he cried out to me:-
"It is not yet too late! Quick! quickl Bring the brandy!"

How does the organizational structure of the passage support the author's
purpose?
Aren't you tired of players, parents, and coaches getting too upset over
kids' sporting events? Although children's sports should be about
learning, exercising, and having a good time, too many people make it
all about winning. For this reason, I think kids' sporting events should
not be scored. The focus would return to building skills and having fun.
It would also be good for players' self-esteem, because there would be
no losing team.
A. To inform the reader about the benefits of kids' sports, the author
uses a chronological structure that shares the most important
aspects of participating in Little League.
B. To persuade the reader that kids' sports should not be scored, the
author uses a problem-solution structure that explains how
eliminating scorekeeping would improve attitudes about youth
sports.
C. To persuade the reader that parents need to behave better at
sporting events, the author uses a chronological structure that
shows scoreless games have become more popular over time.
O D. To inform the reader about an important change to kids' sporting
events, the author uses a problem-solution structure that gives
reasons for focusing on having fun instead of on winning.
