Katy sadly put her last suitcase in the car. She planned to walk inside the only home she had known for thirteen years. Her dad had been transferred to another state, and he had to move because they needed the money. Katy had already said goodbye to her best friend, Gabby, who lived next door. She had told Gabby not to come over because Katy and her family had to pack their belongings. The truth was that she couldn't bear to say goodbye to her friend and the house she loved. Katy made her final walk through the house as she silently said goodbye to each room. When she finally reached her room, she took a good, long look at it, and closed the door. As she turned around to head for the front door, her parents were standing a few feet from her. Her mom started, "We know you are sad, Katy, but you'll love the new house and make new friends." Katy nodded her head as the tears dripped out her eyes. Her dad gave her an envelope. As Katy opened it, she began to smile. She pulled a round-trip airplane ticket out of the envelope and hugged her parents. Saying goodbye to Gabby wouldn't be that bad after all since they had something to look forward to in the near future.
Based on the evidence in the passage, you can tell that Katy

• Will miss her old home
• Will not write to Gabby
• Is looking forward to her new home
• Is mad at her parents

One of the rarest animals in the world is the okapi. They live in the rain forest in Central Africa. Few people have seen one alive. Every few years someone claims to see one, but they never have proof. A few years ago, some scientists who were studying plants found a skeleton, teeth and some skin in a remote area of the rain forest. They were excited, as they believed they had found the remains of a rare okapi. They drew a picture of what they thought the animal might have looked like when it was alive. The scientists then sent the picture along with the skeleton, teeth and skin to a scientific institution in Dallas, Texas.
What did the scientist probably do with the skeleton, teeth, and bones?

• Sold them
• Sent them to more experienced scientist
• Keep them for souveniers
• Compared them to other animals
