Read the paragraph below.
“I always win cause I’m the best,” I say straight at Gretchen who is, as far as I’m concerned, the only one talking in this ventriloquist-dummy routine. Gretchen smiles, but it’s not a smile, and I’m thinking that girls never really smile at each other because they don’t know how and don’t want to know how and there’s probably no one to teach us how, cause grown-up girls don’t know either. Then they all look at Raymond who has just brought his mule team to a standstill. And they’re about to see what trouble they can get into through him."

that Squeaky is confident in her running ability and isn't afraid to stand up for herself.

The common name for a disruption of blood supply to the brain is a stroke. It is caused by a blockage to an artery in the brain. The blockage is from some type of embolus: a blood clot, a fat embolus, or an air bubble. When the blood cannot travel through the artery, the surrounding tissue that is deprived starves and dies. Strokes will often result in the loss of very specific functions. A stroke in the lateral medulla, for example, can cause a loss in the ability to swallow. Sometimes, seemingly unrelated functions will be lost because they are dependent on structures in the same region. Along with the swallowing in the previous example, a stroke in that region could affect sensory functions from the face or extremities because important white matter pathways also pass through the lateral medulla. Loss of blood flow to specific regions of the cortex can lead to the loss of specific higher functions, from the ability to recognize faces to the ability to move a particular region of the body. Severe or limited memory loss can be the result of a temporal lobe stroke.
What can be inferred about strokes from this passage?
Strokes are caused by a surge of blood to one area
Strokes can only result in the loss of a single bodily function
The bodily functions affected are determined by where the stroke occurs
All strokes result in the same loss of functions
"Pest Control"
Homer consulted with Adrian, the local pest control authority. "My garden is a mess!" he complained. "I've been working on it for years, making it perfect and learning how to keep the bugs and beetles away. But now I find big holes all over the ground! Last night I saw a pair of armadillos in the flower beds. Luckily, my dogs scared them off, but I'm afraid they'll come back. Can you help me keep the armadillos away from my garden?"
"There are several methods you can use," said Adrian. "I have repellents that work well and are not harmful to humans or pets. But did you know armadillos can actually be good for your garden? They eat bugs and lots of other pests.
