What is the central idea of the passage?
Half of this biocontainment operation was going to be
news containment, C. J. Peter's comments to The
Washington Post were designed to create an impression
that the situation was under control, safe, and not all that
interesting, C. J. was understating the gravity of the
situation. But he could be very smooth when he wanted,
and he used his friendliest voice with the reporters,
assuring them over the telephone that there really was no
problem, just kind of a routine technical situation,
Somehow the reporters concluded that the sick monkeys
had been "destroyed as a precaution" when in fact the
nightmare, and the reason for troops, was that the
animals hadn't been destroyed,

Intro

THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE
By Hugh Lofting

Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son
My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.

Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.

For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.

Which of the following best summarizes the main point of the plot as presented in the excerpt of "The Cobbler's Son"? (6 points)

Tommy had little hope of escaping his quiet life.
Tommy learned strange songs from sailors in his youth.
Tommy hoped to live a life of adventure in his youth.

Surely, I thought, my mother has told him, for he knows; but as if he guessed my thoughts he shook his head.
“No, I do not know. Tell me.”
I held back. He was a foreigner, and although I no longer stood in awe of him, still the secret had been long locked up in my breast and would not come out easily. “I have no sons,” I said at last, heavily. “Only one child, a girl."

It is likewise most lamentable to think, how in taking Negros out of Africa, and selling of them here, That which GOD has joined together men do boldly rend asunder [Matt. 19:6]; Men from their Country, Husbands from their Wives, Parents from their Children. How horrible is the Uncleanness, Mortality, if not Murder, that the Ships are guilty of that bring great Crouds of these miserable Men, and Women. Methinks, when we are bemoaning the barbarous Usage of our Friends and kinsfolk in Africa: it might not be unseasonable to enquire whether we are not culpable in forcing the Africans to become Slaves amongst our selves. And it may be a question whether all the Benefit received by Negro Slaves, will balance the . . . cash laid out upon them; and for the Redemption of our own enslaved Friends out of Africa. Besides all the Persons and Estates that have perished there.
