2) Which answer is a score of 2/2:

• I think the theme of this text is that you should take time to enjoy certain moments, or take a break. This could be supported by Jim saying "Since the world has stopped anyhow, it won't matter if it take a little recess," or Jim not moving to release Father Time. Also, Jim saying that as soon as he lets Father Time go time will fly again.

• The theme of the text is even if you are good at something you still make mistakes.

• The theme is about a country boy who is good at lassoing, goes to stay with his uncle in the city. The boy goes out riding and catches something.

6) Which answer would only get a 1 out of 2?

• According to the text, I think Jim was happy to find Father Time because he knew that since he had captured him, he could have all the time he wanted.

• Jim’s feelings to Father Time are humorous and curious. “While Jim gazed wonderingly upon him, this venerable old man spoke in an angry voice:” Jim also feels rebellious, “ ‘Too bad!’ said Jim, with a grin. ‘But since the world has stopped anyhow, it won’t matter if it takes a little longer recess. As soon as I let you go Time will fly again.’” He shows that he has a little rebel in his heart. What he is saying is that he will keep Father Time tied up and have a longer “recess.”

• Jim’s feelings of father time is that he doesn’t like him that much.

10) Would this answer get a score of a 0, 1, or a 2? The author thought that the Celtic legacy was preserved, even though the Celts themselves are long gone. This is shown when the author states: “Though the ancient Celts are long gone, Celtic stories are very much alive and inspiring artists today.”
