Stranded
ReadWorks

It had been three days, and we were starting to feel helpless. We had already used most of our resources and knew that if anyone was to come and look for us, it would take them weeks to find us. It was a relief that Andrew was starting to feel better after being dehydrated. We were all happy to have started a fire so that we could now drink clean water. I decided it was time to start searching the island for food and resources. I knew I wasn’t the group leader, but I was going to take charge.

When I told Max that I would head out east toward the beaches, he said I was making a big mistake and that we all needed to stay together. I disagreed with him and told him that we eventually needed to search the island to see what we could use or if anyone else occupied this land that could help us call for rescue.

Jamie and Shannon went with me to search. We walked about three miles and started to hear a sound coming from a distance. We didn’t want to get much closer because we thought it would be better to get others to help us. So, we headed back and told the others. We agreed to return to the spot in the morning. That night, as I slept under the stars, I felt a sense of hope for the first time since being stranded.

What point of view does Lincoln express in this excerpt from the Gettysburg Address?
But in a larger sense we can not dedicate - we can not consecrate - we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who
struggled here, have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here,
but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought
here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these
honoured dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve
that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the
people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from this earth.

Song: To Celia
by Ben Jonson
Drink to me only with thine eyes,
And I will pledge with mine;
Or leave a kiss but in the cup,
And I'll not look for wine.
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
Doth ask a drink divine:
But might I of Jove's nectar sup,
I would not change for thine.
I sent thee late a rosy wreath,
Not so much honouring thee
As giving it a hope that there
It could not withered be.
But thou thereon didst only breathe,
And sent'st it back to me:
Since when it grows, and smells, I swear,
Not of itself, but thee.
