Many species of birds migrate long distances. In the Northern Hemisphere, birds fly north as the weather becomes warm in the spring and south when the weather grows cool in the fall. Some migratory birds are called diurnal migrants because they migrate during the day when the sun heats the air. The warm air rises, creating a lift that helps these birds fly at higher altitudes. Predators such as hawks and eagles hunt other animals for their food and are diurnal migrants. By contrast, most song birds such as warblers and sparrows are called nocturnal migrants because they migrate at night to evade these predators. Some nocturnal migrants fly long distances before landing in the morning to forage for insects, fruit, or seeds in order to refuel for their next flight. Foraging birds may feed in an area for up to a week before setting off again under the cover of darkness.

Read this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global Climate Change. " As the Earth gets warmer, plants and animals that need to live in cold places, like on mountaintops or in the Arctic, might not have a suitable place to live. If the Earth keeps getting warmer, up to one-fourth of all the plants and animals on Earth could become extinct within 100 years. Every plant and animal plays a role in the ecosystem (for example, as a source of food, a predator, a pollinator, a source of shelter), so losing one species can affect many others. What can people do about it? Just like people, plants and animals will have to adapt to climate change. Many types of birds in North America are already migrating further north as the temperature warms. People can help these animals adapt by protecting and preserving their habitats. Based on the excerpt, what conclusion can be drawn about endangered species? Humans cannot help species that are already endangered. Humans cannot protect the habitats of endangered species. Humans can solve all problems that endangered species face. Humans can help endangered species adjust to new environments.

Sonnet XII

by William Shakespeare

When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls all silvered o'er with white;
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
And summer's green all girded up in sheaves
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard,
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;
And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.

Which characteristic of "Sonnet XII" shows that the poem is a sonnet?
