Answer: PART B: Which TWO of the following quotes best support the answer to Part A? A. “Nicholas II, by contrast, was one of history’s most dismal examples of the wrong man, at the wrong time, and in the wrong place. His reign seemed to be almost predetermined to end in a momentous tragedy.” (Paragraph 6) B. “They had ruled Russia for more than 280 years, and most of their subjects—as the czar’s German-born wife, Alexandra, wrote to British Queen Victoria —practically worshipped them “as divine beings.” (Paragraph 9) C. “What the last Romanov did not have was an understanding and respect for the dirt-poor and frequently hungry peasants who eked out a meager living, and it was part of Nicholas’ misfortune that his abysmal insensitivity and weakness were revealed on the very day after his coronation.” (Paragraph 12) D. “In February 1904—less than four months later—Japan launched a surprise attack that destroyed a Russian fleet and threatened to seize Port Arthur, Russia’s only warm-water port. In the war that followed, the Japanese army decisively won every battle…” (Paragraph 24) E. “Nicholas also showed a puzzling disregard for a major uproar in his own court over the growing influence of a mystical faith healer named Grigori Rasputin.” (Paragraph 27) F. “After the control over the country shifted from a provisional government to Lenin’s radicals (the Bolsheviks), the royal couple, their son and four daughters, and the ex-czar’s personal physician and three servants were moved to a house in Yekaterinburg, a town beyond the Urals.” (Paragraph 30)
Gray billowing clouds, the howling wind and thunder in our ears, above our heads, we donned our ponchos, ready.

Daedalus and Icarus is the story of a Greek father and son who were imprisoned in a tower. To escape, Daedalus constructs two sets of wax wings. They fly out of the tower and over the ocean back home. Daedalus warns his son Icarus that he should not fly too far up or he will fly too close to the sun and the heat will melt his wax wings. Icarus refuses to listen and flies higher and higher over the sea. Soon his wax wings melt from the sun and he crashes into the sea and drowns. Daedalus has to watch his son drown knowing there he could have done. This greek legend is often used as a fable, the moral being always listen to the advice of your elders/ wise advice.
