Read this section from “Born Worker” to identify story structure and answer the follow-up questions. “I hit my head,” Mr. Clemens said after smacking his teeth so that the fit was right.

José looked up and his gaze floated to a telephone pole, one his father might have climbed. If he had been there, his father would have seen that José was more than just a good worker. He would have seen a good man. He held the towel to the old man’s head. The poodle, now quiet, joined them on the lounge chair.

A fire truck pulled into the driveway and soon they were surrounded by firemen, one of whom brought out a first-aid kit. A fireman led José away and asked what happened. He was starting to explain when his cousin reappeared, yapping like a poodle.

Part A: What does José learn about himself after his experience with Mr. Clemens?
1.He should have listened to Arnie and run away from the scene.

2.Do your own work instead of relying on others to do it for you.

3.A willingness to do what is hard shows that someone is a good person, and his future may have more in it than just labor.

4.The only people who succeed in life are those who look out for themselves first.

Part B: Which sentence(s) from the passage supports your answer?

1.“A fireman led José away and asked what happened. He was starting to explain when his cousin reappeared, yapping like a poodle.”

2.“He climbed up and saw for himself what his father saw—miles and miles of trees and houses, and a future lost in the layers of yellowish haze.”

3.“‘I was scrubbing the pool,’ Arnie shouted, ‘and I said, ‘Mr. Clemens, you shouldn’t stand so close to the edge. But did he listen?’”

4.“José walked away from Arnie’s jabbering.”
