If you are hungry, you might feel inclined to turn to poaching. But be careful: this is risky. Taking livestock is theft, and theft is a felony which carries the death sentence. Killing wild animals that live on another man's land is also against the law; even taking a single fish from a river can result in a fine of a shilling or more. It is unlikely that you will be hanged for taking a wild animal such as a rabbit; but, even so, you will get a fine amounting to three times the value of the animal as well as three months in prison, and you will have to enter into a bond to guarantee your good behavior in the future; a second offense will be treated more harshly. If a gamekeeper attacks you and you defend yourself, you can be charged with assault. You may find yourself on the gallows if you injure him. What is the author's purpose in this excerpt? to explain why many Elizabethans tried poaching to explain why poaching was dangerous to explain why landowners punished poachers to explain why poaching often was forgiven

The purpose of fasting on Wednesdays is specifically to encourage the eating of fish, to support the fishing industry. People therefore respond differently. Some households uphold the old religious fasts during Advent and Lent, as if they are still observing the religious law; others ignore Advent but observe the Lenten fast. Still others ignore Wednesdays and just fast on Fridays and Saturdays. Why does the author use third-person point of view in this excerpt? The author wants to present factual information effectively. The author wants to draw the reader deeper into the experience. The author wants to directly address the audience. The author wants to persuade the reader of his idea.

The underlying reasons for such differences are not hard to find. In a society in which people still starve to death, an orchard is not a beautiful thing in itself: its beauty lies in the fact that it produces apples and cider. A wide flat field is "finer" than rugged terrain for it can be tilled easily to produce wheat and so represents good white bread. A small thatched cottage, which a modern viewer might consider pretty, will be considered unattractive by an Elizabethan traveler, for cottagers are generally poor and able to offer little in the way of hospitality. Ranges of hills and mountains are obstacles to Elizabethan travelers and very far from picturesque features you go out of your way to see. Hills might feature in an Elizabethan writer's description of a county because of their potential for sheep grazing, but on the whole he will be more concerned with listing all the houses of the gentry, their seats and parks.

If a gamekeeper attacks you and you defend yourself, you can be charged with assault.

Food is valuable in Elizabethan England, far more so than in the modern world. A flock of 180 sheep is worth more than the average detached house. The difficulties of transportation mean that the food supply depends heavily on what grows locally and how much surplus is available. It also depends on the season. Harvest is obviously a time of much grain and fruit. Which ideas are implicitly stated in the excerpt? Check all that apply. Food was more valuable in Elizabethan times than it is today. Detached houses are cheaper than large flocks of sheep. Difficulty in food transportation limited food availability. Not many Elizabethans ate exotic fruit. Food was more scarce during the winter months. More people had food during harvest season

But you still have producers holding back corn supplies, even though hoarding is forbidden by law. In Stratford in 1597 seventy-five townsmen are found guilty of hoarding corn, including William Shakespeare, who is hanging on to ten quarters of malt. Worse than this, "engrossers" buy up all the local supply of an important commodity, such as eggs or butter, in order to drive up the price. In the 1590s certain unscrupulous businessmen buy up to twenty thousand pounds of butter—and this is disastrous because it is an important part of people's diet. Combined with hoarding, this has dramatic consequences for the poor. In some places the famine of 1594-97 proves as deadly as the plague of 1563. The details from this excerpt support the inference that even the rich suffered during times of famine. the laws prevented the rich from hoarding food. the rich often still prospered while the poor starved. many of the rich prevented the poor from starving to death.

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England. In such circumstances, storage of food is most important. The principal rule is to have separate places for different types of commodity: dry things can be kept in a pantry with bread and dry linen; wet things are normally stored in the buttery. Wine and meat must be kept apart, and cellars should be avoided on account of their dampness. Meat should be seethed in summer to keep it fresh, then kept in a cool cellar, soaked in vinegar with juniper seeds and salt. Most yeomen will have vats and presses for making cheeses—a valuable source of protein in the long winter season. Similarly, most livestock owners have troughs for salting meat or allowing it to steep in brine. What is the author's purpose in this excerpt? to explain how easy it was to store food properly during Elizabethan times to explain how the proper way to store food was taught to Elizabethan cooks to explain the complexities of proper food storage during Elizabethan times to explain the errors people made trying to store food properly during Elizabethan times

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England. Pig farmers keep their flitches of bacon back in storage until they can get a better price for them later in the winter. Such tactics are made even more profitable by the unhappy fact that harvests can fail, causing local—and sometimes national—food shortages. Large towns are less vulnerable, being part of an international market that sees preserved foods traded long-distance; but much of the countryside is dependent on fresh food. After a poor harvest, prices for all commodities—not just grain—rise dramatically and the poor are unable to make ends meet. Which detail from the excerpt best supports the inference that food was more consistently available in larger towns?

A summary is a statement of a text's central ideas in one's

The theory of the humors is just the basic framework into which physicians fit a number of other ideas. Galen teaches that every living thing is composed of the four elements: fire, earth, air, and water. Each of these corresponds with one of the four humors. Fire, which is said to be hot and dry, corresponds with choler; water (cold and wet) with phlegm; earth (dry and cold) with black bile; and air (hot and wet) with blood. These properties are all associated with parts of the body, so the brain is cold and moist, the kidneys hot and moist, and so on. If an imbalance in the humors clashes with the properties of an organ, the patient will be ill. Which sentence best summarizes the excerpt? Water was thought to be cold and wet, so it was associated with phlegm. Elizabethans believed that the balance of the four humors would keep them healthy. Galen taught Elizabethan doctors about fire, water, earth, and air. Air was the most important humor because it corresponded with blood.

When analyzing the development of a text's central ideas, readers should consider

The grim reality is that plague in the capital is as common as the stench of the cesspits and almost as unavoidable. You cannot predict where it will strike: People living next door to infected houses are left unaffected. Some people are not touched even when others in their own house have it. Which sentence best summarizes the excerpt? The plague was unavoidable, and unpredictable in regards to whom it would affect. The plague was associated with filthy cesspits. It was a dirty disease with a foul odor. People in diseased homes should certainly have left immediately to avoid infection. The capital was the center of all medical care, and Elizabethans came for treatment.

Which line best helps develop the central idea that the plague was a very deadly disease? "Elizabethans do not understand infection and contagion as we do." "In 1565 the people of Bristol count up the plague victims for that year and arrive at the figure of 2,070 . . ." "This last epidemic originates in Portugal and is brought to Devon by mariners." "It is ironic that the great naval ships that deliver the English from the Spanish threat bring another danger . . ."

Serious though influenza and malaria are, they are not the biggest killers of the age. That title belongs to the plague or "pestilence." No one knows precisely how many die over the course of the reign but the total is probably around 250,000. In 1565 the people of Bristol count up the plague victims for that year and arrive at the figure of 2,070, almost 20 percent of the population. Ten years later, after another deadly outbreak, they record a further 2,000 fatalities. What is the central idea of this paragraph? Another name for the plague in the 1500s was "the pestilence." In 1565 almost 20 percent of the population died of the plague. The plague was the most deadly disease of the Elizabethan era. Malaria and influenza killed almost as many people as the plague.

Elizabethan people suffer from some afflictions that no longer exist in modern England. Plague is the obvious example but it is by no means the only one. Sweating sickness kills tens of thousands of people on its first appearance in 1485 and periodically thereafter. It is a terrifying disease because sufferers die within hours. It doesn't return after a particularly bad outbreak in 1556 but people do not know whether it has gone for good; they still fear it, and it continues to be part of the medical landscape for many years. How does the paragraph develop the central idea that Elizabethans suffered from diseases that are unfamiliar to modern readers? It lists diseases found only in modern England. It describes the plague in great detail. It gives a description of the English landscape. It provides the example of sweating sickness.

Which sentence is an example of an objective summary? Mortimer is a witty writer who adds humor to history. It must have been horrible to live in Elizabethan times. Quality health care today is wonderful, but overpriced. Modern medicine has changed dramatically since the 1500s.

There is no concept of "health and safety" in Elizabethan England, so you will inevitably feel vulnerable when you arrive. Nauseating smells and sights will assail your senses; contemporary standards of cleanliness will worry you. People die every day from unknown ailments, the young as often as the old. Infectious diseases periodically kill thousands within a few weeks. Even when plague is not in town, it lurks as an anxiety in the back of people's minds and, when it does strike, their worry turns to terror. On top of the illnesses, the chances of being attacked and hurt are much higher than in the modern world, and workplace injuries are far more common. What is the central idea of this paragraph? Infectious diseases, like the plague, killed many people. Infectious diseases were a great source of concern. Elizabethans faced health challenges similar to ours today. Elizabethans faced a variety of challenges in staying healthy.

Elizabethans do not understand infection and contagion as we do. It is not that they are completely ignorant as to how illnesses spread—physicians believe they know perfectly well—it is rather that their understanding is very different from ours. The principal ideas underpinning most Elizabethan medical thinking come from Galen, who lived in the second century A.D. Physicians will cite him as an unquestionable authority when they explain to you that your health depends on a balance of the four humors: yellow bile or choler, black bile, phlegm, and blood. If there is too much choler in your body, you will grow choleric; too much blood and you will be sanguine; too much phlegm and you will be phlegmatic; and too much black bile makes you melancholic. It is from these imbalances that sickness arises. How does the paragraph develop the central idea that Elizabethan beliefs influenced their understanding of disease? It provides details about Galen's medical training. It compares modern and Elizabethan techniques. It details the belief that bodily humors affect health. It describes popular Elizabethan treatments.

Descriptive details help the reader eliminate unnecessary information. present information in a logical way. organize details in order of importance. envision a concept or scenario.

More theaters open their doors to the public. The Rose is built by Philip Henslowe at Southwark, not far from the bear-baiting and bull-baiting arenas, in 1587.

In 1574 the city authorities are given powers to restrict playhouses, forcing the actors to find new premises in the suburbs. This becomes a golden opportunity for John Brayne and his brother-in-law, James Burbage, who in 1576 build a new theater, simply called The Theatre, at Shoreditch, just half a mile north of Bishopsgate. The following year a second theater, the Curtain, is built just two hundred yards away. Despite some heavy opposition from Puritan preachers and moralists, both theaters are successful.

The driving age should be increased to nineteen years old nationwide to make the roads safer for everyone. (2) This would decrease the number of people who lose their lives in car accidents. (3) Drivers ages sixteen to nineteen are almost three times more likely than drivers age twenty or older to be in a fatal crash. (4) That being said, there may be other ways to decrease the number of accidents involving teen drivers, such as offering more rigorous driver's education classes and issuing tougher seat belt laws. Which is a possible rebuttal to the counterclaim? Those solutions may make the road safer, but increasing the driving age is proven to save significantly more lives, according to studies comparing different state laws. In addition to these solutions, teenagers should not be allowed to drive with other teens in the car, as this also increases the risk that they will get into an accident. Any law that regulates teenage driving could save lives, whether it increases the driving age, increases the penalty for driving without a seat belt, or limits who can be in the car. New laws and tougher driver's education courses are important, because many teenagers drive to school, help drive younger siblings, and drive to after-school jobs.
