Questions 12–17 refer to the poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost.
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
Which of the following best describes the poem’s theme?

Question 18 of 20
Questions 18–19 refer to the poem “Invictus” by William Ernest Henley.
Out of the night that covers me
Black as the pitch from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance,
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul.
The poem uses which of the following rhyme schemes?

Question 20 of 20
Question 20 refers to the following piece of travel writing.
Another Kind of Smoke
Just off the coast of Kagoshima exists Sakurajima, the most active volcano in Japan. The magma bubbling underneath produces the hot, mineral-rich water pumped into the city’s famed onsen baths. What classifies as an eruption happens annually, and the mountain puffs up smoke nearly every day, the dark ash trailing in the wind for miles.
Kagoshima residents live under the threat of a major eruption, just as we do in Santa Rosa with wildfires. It’s not uncommon for the air to turn to smoke, or ash to fall on the city. On less fortunate days, elementary school students venturing outside wear helmets to protect them from debris.
