The Sami are indigenous people living in the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia's Kola peninsula. Originally, the Sami religion was animistic; that is, for them, nature and natural objects had a conscious life, a spirit. Therefore, one was expected to move quietly in the wildernss and avoid making a disturbance out of courtesy to these spirits. Ghengis Khan is said to have declared that the Sami were the one people he would never try to fight again. Because the Sami were not warriors and did not believe in war, they simply disappear in times of conflict. They were known as "peaceful retreaters". Closest meaning of the underlined word animistic, as it is used in the passage, is the irrational belief in supernatural beings the irrational belief in supernatural beings the belief that animals and plants have souls the belief that animals and plants have souls the belief that animals are gods the belief that animals are gods the primitive belief that people can be reincarnated

this is a long one so.... The Ruined Man Who Became Rich Again Through a Dream An adaptation of a story from 1,001 Arabian Nights Once there lived in the city of Chongqing a very wealthy man who lost all his belongings and his treasures and became very poor. He was so poor that he could only earn his living by laboring day and night. One night, extremely late, he lay down to rest. He was exhausted, dejected, and sick at heart. He fell into a deep sleep and dreamt that a wise old soul came to him and said, "Your fortune is in the city of Beijing; go there and seek it." The next day, he set out for Beijing. He arrived there deep into the night and he lay down to sleep for a bit in a hostel. Presently, as fate would have it, a company of thieves entered the hostel. They made their way into the house that adjoined the hostel. Soon, the people of the house, aroused by the noise, awoke and cried out, "thieves, thieves!" An alarm was raised and the chief of the police came to their aid with his officers. The robbers made off; but the police entered the hostel and found the man from Chongqing asleep there. They cast him into prison, where they kept him for three days. The chief of police sent for him and said, "Where did you come from?" "From Chongqing," whispered the man. "And what brought you to Beijing?" asked the chief. "I saw in a dream an old soul who said to me, 'Thy fortune is at Beijing; go there at once to find it.' But, when I came here, the fortune that I was promised proved to be an arrest and a jail stay." The chief of the police laughed until he showed his white, wide, broad teeth. He said to the man from Chongqing, "O man of little wit! Three times have I seen an old soul in a dream who said to me, 'There is a fashionable house in Chongqing, with a fountain in the front garden. Under the fountain there is buried treasure- a great sum of money. Go there and take it.' Of course I did not go. You, on the other hand, you of little wit, have journeyed from place to place, on the faith of a dream, which was but an illusion of sleep." Then the chief of police gave the man from Chongqing money, saying, "This is to help you get back to your native land." Now, the house that the chief described was the man's very own house in Chongqing! When he traveled home, he immediately dug underneath the fountain in his garden and discovered a great treasure! He received an abundant fortune in his own yard! Which of these events from the story best shows the conflict? Group of answer choices 1. The next day, he set out for Beijing. 2. Soon, the people of the house, aroused by the noise, awoke and cried out, "thieves, thieves!" 3. The robbers made off; but the police entered the hostel and found the man from Chongqing asleep there. 4. The chief of the police laughed until he showed his white, wide, broad teeth.

Read the excerpt from “The Shepherd’s Boy and the Wolf.”

A shepherds boy was tending his flock near a Village, and thought it would be great fun to hoax the villagers by pretending that a wolf was attacking the sheep: so he shouted “Wolf! Wolf!” and when the people came running up he laughed at them for their pains. He did this more than once, and every time the villagers found they had been hoaxed for there was no wolf at all. At last a wolf really did come, and the boy cried “wolf!Wolf!” as loud as he could: but the people were so used to hearing him call that they took no notice of his cries for help.
