- 27. Multiple ChoiceHow to grill by Steven Raichlen
Once you have your grill assembled, the next thing to decide is where to put it. A grill puts out a lot of heat, so you should position it several feet away from the side of the house or any plants or shrubbery. You'll have an easier time with a spot that is sheltered from the wind. When positioning a grill on a wooden deck, remember that sparks and live embers can fall from a charcoal grill.first-personthird-omniscientthird-objectivesecond-person - 28.

I truly expected them to be challenged by some gang boss, but they said that the only person who came by was a scrawny little rat of a girl living alone. We let her have one of the mattresses.First-personsecond-personthird- limitedthird-objective - 30. Multiple ChoiceAlice's adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, John Tenniel

So she was considering, in her own mind whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.third-limitedfirst-personthird-objectivethird-omniscient - 31.
