Select the correct text in the passage,
Which sentence in this excerpt from Nathan's memoir, "The Big Race," reflects the main idea of the story?
Being a teenager can be a real challenge. A million different people have a million different expectations from you. Your mother wants you to
play soccer, while your brother wants you to take up football. I have definitely felt the weight of these expectations. When I was 13 years old my
mother signed me up for the school track team. "I am not good at running," I would whine every time she pushed me to try. I could barely run a
mile without getting all tired and exhausted. I did not have the body of an athlete, I was this little, skinny kid with the stamina of an old man. I
hated it

Caleb is researching the possibility of colonizing Mars. He found two sources for his topic. Read the two passages Caleb found.

Source 1

Many people say Mars is cold and desolate, and there’s nothing to grow there. We can genetically modify plants and algae to thrive in the Martian atmosphere. But who’s going to do the heavy lifting? We all would like to see futuristic cities on Mars, but robots are going to become much more adapted to working in these harsh environments by the end of this century, so we expect to see robotic construction workers building the fantastic domed cities you see in science fiction novels.

–Michio Kaku,
Quoted in "There’s Only One Way for Humanity to Survive. Go to Mars,”
Simon Worrall

Source 2

"I think we could produce most of our things on Mars except perhaps the most sophisticated electronics and such,” says van Susante. "From a biological standpoint the picture is less clear since there may be trace elements and vitamins, that we would need to import.”

–Paul van Susante,
Quoted in "Could We Survive Without Our Planet?,”
Abigail Beall

People will be able to grow different crops on Mars.

What makes you happy? Maybe its not what you think ...
Do you know what makes you happy or do you just think you know? At first, these two
questions look the same. If you think something makes you happy, then it makes you happy. You
know yourself, don’t you?
Write a list of all the things that make you happy. How many of them are fun? Most of them? So,
if you spend your time doing all these fun things, you’ll be really happy, won’t you?
Well, maybe not. For most people, fun isn’t enough for real happiness. Paul Dolan wrote a book
called Happiness by Design. He thinks happiness comes from both pleasure and purpose. If most
of the things on your list are about pleasure, that is what you think makes you happy. But you
also need activities with purpose.
We usually know if something is fun, but we don’t know what brings meaning. For example,
most people think air pilots have jobs with clear purpose. They fly hundreds of people all over
the world. But they spend a lot of time in boring hotels and airports and they do the same things
hundreds of times. Those activities might not bring meaning – and they’re probably not fun. So
pilots also need to find pleasure and purpose in their work and life.
There are different ways we can find purpose in things. Some activities might be motivating
because they work for the good of people and the world around us. Or what you do might help a
team you’re working in.
If you’re a student, your ‘job’ is studying and passing exams. It’s easy to do well in subjects you
like, but subjects you don’t like are less motivating. They’re not fun for you, but you have to
study them so you need to find purpose. An A in a subject you hate won’t help the world. But
can you be part of a study team with friends? Each person can study one part until they
understand it and then teach it to the rest of the group. The purpose becomes helping the team.
Go back to your list of things that make you happy. How many of them are activities that bring
purpose? Can you add any? Remember, some activities might bring both pleasure and purpose.
Now you need to design a happy life. Paul Dolan believes people should ‘decide, design, do’.
First decide what brings you pleasure and/or purpose – that means your two lists. Then, don’t
just think about these activities, fill your life with them. For example, you might love riding a
bike but never have time to do it. So, ride to school or the library or the shops. If you live too far
away, take your bike on the bus or train. Get off early and ride the rest of the way. If you go in
the car, put it in the back, stop a few kilometres away and ride the rest. Or move somewhere you
can ride more. Some parts of our lives are good or bad luck, but we can still design the rest to
make more happiness.

Read the excerpt from It's Our World, Too!: Young People Who Are Making a Difference. Andy Percifield had been busy, too. There were only two days before the next game. He was determined that his school would do the right thing, no matter what the principal said.

Andy has become very angry about the racist fans and he will put an end to their comments no matter what.
