Things like, I need to come up with something first. I CAN"T JUST WALK INTO THE LION"S DEN WITHOUT A PLAN. Or, It's hopeless, there's no point anymore. You've waited too long.

The Piano Player
After the applause died down, Maria stared at the keys on the grand piano. She lifted her right hand to strike the first note, but then she paused. She could not recall the notes that formed the music. In fact, all that came to her mind was a sweet, simple tune she learned as a child.

Maria felt a weight rise in her chest and then sink in the pit of her stomach. It turned over and over, making her feel nauseous. Sweat gathered at the top of her forehead. Her long fingers had always danced over the keys. But now her fingers did not want to move. She could hear the audience shift in their seats, murmur to one another.

She looked at the notes on the sheet music, but they seemed heavy and difficult. Maria, absorbed in the sheet music, did not notice that the conductor had risen to his podium. Now other members of the orchestra picked up their instruments and prepared to play. With a signal from the conductor, the string section began. As the conductor waved his arms, he stared at Maria. Maria looked up and awkwardly smiled at the conductor. The conductor frowned.

Maria closed her eyes for a moment and listened. Her mind left the sheet music behind and the audience and let the orchestra's music flow into her ears and fill her body. Now she remembered. She lifted her hands and started to play.

For a long distance the road had been bordered by fields on both sides, but now on the left there was a forest of oaks, madronos, and gigantic spruces whose lower parts only could be seen, dim and ghostly in the fog. The undergrowth was, in places, thick, but nowhere impenetrable. For some moments Holker saw nothing of the building, but as they turned into the woods it revealed itself in faint grey outline through the fog, looking huge and far away. A few steps more, and it was within an arm’s length, distinct, dark with moisture, and insignificant in size. It had the usual country-schoolhouse form—belonged to the packing-box order of architecture; had an underpinning of stones, a moss-grown roof, and blank window spaces, whence both glass and sash had long departed. The growth had __________the abandoned building.

“Remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it. “Your father’s right,” she said. “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy . . . but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”

DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS: DAY OF THE DEAD what text structure is this
Día de los Muertos (pronounced DEE-ah deh lohs MWER-toess) is a Mexican
holiday celebrated October 31 - November 2. Some people mistakenly
interpret Día de los Muertos as "Mexican Halloween." Día de los Muertos is an
entirely different holiday that celebrates and honors deceased loved ones.
The multi-day festival is joyous, not a horrowful funeral. People hold a party
at their relative's gravesite. The grave is cleaned and decorated with marigold
flowers. Families set up candlelit altars that include photographs, an ancestor's
favorite foods, and cherished items from when they were alive. As family
members enjoy a huge feast, they laugh, sing songs, and share happy
memories of their loved one.
During Día de los Muertos,
skeletons and skulls aren't
scary. Painting their face like
a skeleton is just part of the
happy occasion. Treats and
toys are decorated as
brightly colored skulls. Life-
sized paper mâché skeletons
are posed as if they're
partaking in the celebration.
