Use your passages to answer the following questions. Pay attention to key words in the questions and the titles of the passages.

Which sentence from "Summer Is for New Adventures" supports the author's point about the new summer reading rule?

Our school requires that students read two books during the summer.

Students who found books that were great for them might end up reading three books, or four, or ten.

Reading is a valuable skill, and most students are willing to work hard to improve. 

Students agree that reading is an important skill, but they want to relax on vacation.

The books the school has chosen are good, but some students have already read them.

Summer is supposed to be a break from school, and students may forget what they need.
