Read these sentences from “Hachiko: The True Story of a Loyal Dog.” The dog was beautiful, but his sharp face reminded me of a wolf’s. I grabbed Mama’s kimono and stepped behind her, just in case. Why does the dog’s physical similarity to a wolf frighten the narrator?

Mama and I had stopped near the station entrance when I noticed the dog.

A few days later he was back at Shibuya Station, patiently waiting, his brown eyes fixed on the entrance.

People always say to each other, “Let’s meet at Hachiko.”

Read the final sentence from “Hachiko: The True Story of a Loyal Dog.” Today Hachiko is a place where friends and family long separated come together again. What is the most likely reason the author concluded the story with this statement?

It reminds the reader that Hachiko reunited with his owner each day, and his statue serves a similar purpose for friends and families.

It emphasizes that the statue still brings the community together, just as Hachiko tried to do while he was alive.

It suggests that Hachiko was lonely during his life, but today people show their love of him by gathering by the statue.

It helps the reader understand that Hachiko might have been forgotten, but luckily the statue acts as a reminder of the loyal dog.

The following question has two parts. Answer Part A first, and then Part B. Part A In “Hachiko: The True Story of a Loyal Dog,” what theme, or message about life, is revealed through Hachiko’s actions?

True loyalty to another is lifelong.

Loyalty must be taught to others.

Being loyal always results in pain.

Loyalty can cause one to lose hope.

Part A Answer: Hachiko's actions reveal this theme: "True loyalty to another is lifelong." Part B Which excerpt from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

As the years passed and Hachiko got older, he became very stiff and could barely walk to Shibuya Station. But he still went, every day.

Just then, Papa appeared. He was chatting with an older man. The dog bounded over to the man, his entire body wiggling and quivering with delight.

Hachiko stood wagging his tail next to Dr. Ueno. I reached to touch him, and he bounced forward and sniffed my face.

Hachiko would sniff me all over, wagging his tail, until he found a sticky bit of fish or soybean cake. Then he would nudge me with his nose, as if to say, “Give me my prize!”
