English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.。

There would be no softball game thisafternoon. Lori let out a deep sigh."What's wrong, honey?" asked Nana."It's this rain, Nana." Lori looked sadly at her grandmother. "My softball game will be cancelled, and there's nothing to do today!""Nonsense," Nana genuinely looked surprised. "How can you say there's nothing to do?"Lori looked at the pile of fabric sitting on Nana's lap. "Well, what are you doing?""I'm working on this quilt! Would you like to help?""Quilting? I don't know. That doesn't sound very exciting." Lori reluctantly sat on the floor beside her grandmother. The fabric on Nana's lap was colorful and pretty, but quilting always looked so boring—not fun and exciting like softball."The first thing you need to think about is the pattern," Nana began. "You need to know the designbefore you start.""So what's your design?" Lori asked."It's a simple pattern of shapes, but I'm using beautiful fabric and I think it's coming together nicely. Would you like to try?"Lori looked doubtful. "Well," she began, "I'lltry . . ."Nana handed the quilt to Lori, and she explained how Lori should sew the small fabric square into the larger design. Even though Lori thought the fabric was pretty, she could only think about her cancelled softball game and quickly began to daydream.Lori snapped out of her daydream when she heard Nana shout, "Stop, honey! What are you doing?""I'm sorry, Nana," Lori said, embarrassed. "I wasn't concentrating.""I can certainly see that," Nana said. "Lori, whenyou do something—anything—you need to pay attention.""I know. I guess I don't think quilting is very interesting."Nana walked to the closet and pulled a dusty box from the top shelf. From inside the box, Nana pulled out a quilt. It looked old and well used. Lori unfolded the quilt and saw a large star patched together with faded red and blue triangles."What is it, Nana?""It's the North Star. This quilt was made by my grandmother's mother.""We learned about the North Star in science class, but why did your great-grandmother put it on a quilt?" Lori was paying attention now."Well, I wasn't there, so I can't guarantee this is entirely true, but this is the story my mother told me. My great-grandmother was born in the South before the Civil War, and she was a slave. I'm sure you'velearned about the Underground Railroad in school, right?"Lori nodded. "It was the route taken by runaway slaves when they tried to escape to the North. Many people were involved and risked their lives to provide slaves with a place to sleep or hide.""That's right. The story goes that mygreat-grandmother decided to run away and find her freedom. She quickly learned the secret signs of the Underground Railroad. One of those signs was a quilt with a North Star design."Lori was hanging on Nana's every word. She was fascinated. "What did the quilts mean?""Think about it. When do you see the North Star?""Of course! At night! The quilts told the slaves to travel north at nighttime, when it was safer.""I'm impressed! After my great-grandmother found her freedom, she made this quilt to remember the journey and the risks so many people took tohelp her. It has been passed down from mother to daughter ever since. I gave it to your mother whenshe got married, and someday she'll give it to you."Lori stood up and gave Nana a big hug. "I'm sorryI didn't pay attention before. Can I try sewing the square on your new quilt again?"41. W hich of the following would make the besttitle for this story?A. North Star SecretsB. Rainy Day ActivitiesC. Learning to QuiltD.
