Heading North (an excerpt) by Listeria Calvin

Elisa sat in a vinyl chair next to her mother and waited for Ms. Everett, the principal, to hang up the phone and emerge from her office to sign the documents that would finalize Elisa's transfer into the school. Elisa's mother pointed to the coat rack next to the door. Elisa knew that her mother wanted her to hang up her coat, but Elisa still felt cold—she had been barely able to contain her shivering since they arrived in this sleepy little Pennsylvania town. But Elisa obeyed her mother's wishes and hung her down-filled jacket on a hook…

Leaving her happy life in Sarasota was not easy for Elisa, who at first dug in her heels. She cried and pleaded with her mother to look for work in Florida. But she was no longer a little girl and realized that she had to accept her mother's decision because it was in their best interest. Elisa's mother had been out of work for a while and the job she had been offered was a good one. And Elisa also knew that there was more to her mother's decision than finances. Her elderly grandparents lived alone and were now at an age where they needed family nearby.

(1) fire extended humans’ geographical boundaries by allowing them to travel into regions that were previously too cold to explore. (2) it also kept predators away, allowing early humans to sleep securely. (3) fire, in fact, has been a significant factor in human development and progress in many ways. (4) other obvious benefits of fire are its uses in cooking and in hunting. (5) probably even more important, however, is that learning to control fire allowed people to change the very rhythm of their lives. (6) before fire, the human daily cycle coincided with the rising and setting of the sun. (7) with fire, though, humans gained time to think and talk about the day’s events and to prepare strategies for coping with tomorrow. the sentence that expresses the main idea is: (type the number of the sentence. then click “go.”)
