Read the passage below. Then, answer the questions that follow.
The Pin

1 My old school had just one class at each grade. It was a real-­life Little House on the Prairie. I was well­-known and popular. Other kids looked up to me and wanted to be my friend. You might say that I was a big fish in a small pond. When I started at my new school, I had to make a lot of adjustments.

2 That all changed when my family moved. My new school is three times bigger than my old school. At first, no one here knew me. The kids were polite, but they did not treat me like a good friend. For a few days, I felt sad and homesick. Then I decided to change my attitude. I could and would work hard to improve my situation.

3 First, I made a list of my goals. They included making new friends, getting to know my teachers, and keeping busy in a positive way. As I was walking through the hall, I saw a poster announcing the upcoming election for school officers. Suddenly, it all fell into place. I would run for freshman class president! The idea seemed a little crazy, even to me. How could a newcomer, an unknown, get elected?

4 I wore a corny-looking straw hat like old-­time politicians used to wear at conventions. I boldly walked up to people and introduced myself. I engaged students and teachers in conversations. I was honest about what I was doing and why. I felt like a character in an old Jimmy Stewart movie. I promised that if I were elected, I would work just as hard to improve the school as I had to win the office

5 Last week, I achieved my goal. Now, I wear a pin on my lapel that says “Freshman Class President.” I wear it proudly. I am very busy trying to keep my campaign promises, and I am very happy.

15. Read the following sentences from the story "Loyalties."
I was twelve years old at the time. One afternoon my father came rushing home earlier than usual.

"Wife," he shouted to my mother who was out the back preparing food; "wife, have you not heard the news?" He was so excited he went rushing through the house. I followed him.

"Aren't you ashamed of yourself, a grown man like you rushing around like a small boy? What is it?" my mother said.

"Ojukwu has announced the new state of Biafra. We are no longer Nigerians, you hear? We are now Biafrans," he said and smiled.

"And what then?" my mother asked.

"Woman, don't you know what you are saying? Don't you realize that this is an important day, an historic occasion?"

My mother stood up and put her hands on her hips. Her face was streaming from the heat of the fire.

"Whether we are in Nigeria or whether we are in Biafra we are almost out of firewood," she said.

"You will change your mind, Father, when you know Nene."

"I shall never see her," was the reply. From that night the father scarcely spoke to his son. He did not, however, cease hoping that he would realize how serious was the danger he was heading for. Day and night he put him in his prayers.
