Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen
From this well-stocked basement came a whole new set
of really neat projects. My younger brother, Mitch, and
his friends, as well as some of my own friends, would
come after school to help. At sixteen I was now a young
entrepreneur, paying them for their help. I was surprised
by the number of orders I was getting for more and more
equipment. Soon I didn't have time to build and design
new things. Giving over this work to other kids gave me
more time to do what I wanted to do. This went on after
school and all summer long.
What can you conclude about Dean from the excerpt?
O His ultimate goal was to create jobs for his brother
and his friends.
His main interest was designing and inventing new
things
O He lacked the motivation to build the equipment by
himself
He valued money more than he valued his brother
and friends.

One element of lyric poetry is personal reflection. which lines in this poem most clearly illustrate that element? i wandered lonely as a cloudby william wordsworthi wandered lonely as a cloudthat floats on high o'er vales and hills,when all at once i saw a crowd,a host, of golden daffodils; beside the lake, beneath the trees,fluttering and dancing in the breeze.continuous as the stars that shineand twinkle on the milky way.they stretched in never-ending linealong the margin of a bay: ten thousand saw i at a glance,tossing their heads in sprightly dance.the waves beside them danced; but theyout-did the sparkling waves in glee: a poet could not but be gay.in such a jocund company: i gazed and gazed—but little thoughtwhat wealth the show to me had brought: for oft, when on my couch i liein vacant or in pensive mood,they flash upon that inward eyewhich is the bliss of solitude; and then my heart with pleasure fills,and dances with the daffodils.
