Is there a particular geographical area of Africa that is most interesting to me?
Are there any recent current events that I am interested in learning more about?
What do I already know about Africa? Do I want to know more about one of those topics?
Am I most interested in a book that focuses on an economic, social, or political topic?

Read the following excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller and then answer the question that follows.
The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a few verbs like sit, stand and walk. But my teacher had been with me several weeks before I understood that everything has a name. I left the well-house eager to learn. Everything had a name, and each name gave birth to a new thought. As we returned to the house every object which I touched seemed to quiver with life. That was because I saw everything with the strange, new sight that had come to me.
Which of the following best summarizes the excerpt?
1. Helen's teacher taught her to finger spell doll so she knew how to tell her teacher what toy she wanted to play with.
2. Helen's teacher taught her all objects have a name opening the world of language.
3. Helen liked to touch all the objects in the house so she knew which ones she wanted to play with.
4. Helen was excited to learn that everything had a name so that she could talk with her teacher.
