Description

[This book] is an anthology of stories, plays, articles, essays, and poetry. All of these can be read for themselves alone, but enrichment material has been included to deepen appreciation and expand horizons.... For deeper understanding and sharper reading skills, each selection has reading questions at the end. These focus on key reading skills like finding the main idea, identifying details, and drawing correct inferences. Words listed at grade 12 difficulty or above are tested. These are followed by questions designed to help you think about what you have just read.... [This book] draws upon American sources, but also searches the world for stories from many countries: Third World countries as well as industrialized nations. -To the student.
