Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain

4. Read this sentence from the selection.

“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”

In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —

• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion


5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —

• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off


8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?

• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.

• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.

• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”

• She did not know any synonyms for the word.


9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?

• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words

• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good

• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis
