Blue-Screen Technology
The camera rolls as an actor stands in front of a blue screen. The actor stands alone, saying his lines. However, when you see the actual movie, he is talking to a formidable seven-foot-tall monster in a creepy dark forest. A process called blue-screen technology is used to insert images into a background. Today, moviemakers use this process to combine digitally created, or computer-generated, characters with real people on the screen. Here’s how it works:
The scene calls for a real character to interact with a seven-foot-tall digitally created monster. First, the real character’s part must be filmed. He may rehearse with another actor who plays the part of the monster. During the rehearsal, the “monster” might wear a tall hat to represent the stature of the monster. The real actor practices looking at the top of the hat during the scene so that is seems that he is looking up at a very tall creature. The actor gets used to where the monster stands and moves. The monster’s movements are marked on the floor so that the actor doesn’t walk on top of the monster during the scene. Then it is time for the scene to be shot. The actor stands alone in front of a blue screen and delivers his lines as if the monster were there. Eventually, the blue background is deleted, using a computer, and images of the digital monster and background are then transferred to the film.

Which of these steps is second in the blue-screen process?
a.
The real character rehearses his part with another character playing the monster.
c.
The blue background is deleted, using a computer, and images of the digital monster and background are then transferred to the film.
b.
The scene is shot.
d.
none of the above

So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Read William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18. Note that it is divided into three quatrains followed by a concluding couplet. Which two signals indicate the start of the third quatrain in line nine?

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Read the introduction and first paragraph of an essay about energy sources.
Abc
(1) The nation's energy use is largely dependent on fossil fuels. (2) These fuels are nonrenewable
resources, and they cause pollution. (3) We cannot continue our reliance on a fuel that will eventually run
out. (4) Thus, we must find other ways to sustain our energy demands. (5) Pursuing alternative fuel sources
is the key to solving our energy crisis.
(6) Currently, about 1 percent of energy in the United States is produced by the sun, and solar energy has
the potential to become a more widely used energy source. (7) Through different technologies, such as
solar cells, scientists have learned to use the sun's radiation to create electricity. (8) Solar energy is both
inexhaustible and clean. (9) The major limit to this alternative source is that equipment is expensive. (10)
Developing a cost-effective way to harness the power of the sun will be a significant development in
solving our energy crisis.
Which is an alternative piece of evidence that supports the idea that solar energy could play a part in solving the
energy crisis?
Solar energy is not a suitable solution for all climates due to shorter hours of daylight
