Keela's New Rideby Bryan Ellett

Keela always got whatever she wanted. Her father gave her a new bike, a nicer bike than any of her friends had. One day, Keela went into a store and left the bike out front, and when she came back outside, the bike was gone. She didn't care; she could just get another one!
Keela's father said he would not buy her a new bike, and he said that she would have to do chores to earn enough money to buy another one. So, for the next two months, Keela took out the trash, did the dishes, and scooped the dog's poop. Finally, Keela's father told her that she had earned enough money for a new bike. "I'd better work for a few more days," she told him, "because I need enough money to buy a bike lock, too."

Which of these themes is reflected in this passage?

A. People value things more when they have to work for them.

B. Parents should never give anything to their children for free.

C. It is better to buy used bikes because they won't get stolen.

D. Children should always volunteer to help with the chores.

Explanation:

While at a friend's house watching a horror movie snow began to fall. It was late October and trees were still full of leaves. I said my good byes and began my trip to my apartment. As I was driving, I began to understand the danger I was in. The storm was quickly developing and heavy snow splashed on my windshield. A car crash being handled by firefighters required me a detour. Along a road I barely knew tree limbs began to fall, weighed low by the heavy snow. Luckily, I made it back to my apartment complex, where, with power out, someone had pried the gate open. I parked next to a neighbor's car with a tree on it. I worked my back towards my place in a complete blackout, then blazing light when the sky was lit completely blue by exploding transformers.

That next week there was no power for much of the region. Some parts of Connecticut were without power for 2 weeks. It's important to be prepared for winter weather before winter. If you lose power, heating, cooking, even getting money can be complicated. Having a car helped, but getting gas was difficult because most gas stations didn't have generators to power the pumps. The few gas stations that had power didn't have telephone lines to take credit card payments. Grocery stores allow for cash back on transactions which got us cash while ATMs were inoperable. Prepare just a few things mentally. I know in retrospect I wich I had!
