Fractions
A fraction is one number over the other like this:
Numerators and Denominators
| Number | Numerator and Denominator | Result |
| 6 | is the numerator | Smaller |
| 7 | is the denominator | |
| 3 | is the numerator | Smaller |
| 4 | is the denominator | |
Common Dominators
| Fraction Number | Result | |
| ½ + 1/2 | 2/2 | Equal |
| ¼ + ¼ + 1/4 | 3/4 | Smaller |
| ½ + 1/4 | 6/8 | Smaller |
Only if you change ½ to the equivalent expression 2/4 thus: 2/4 + ¼ = ¾

Reading Comprehension
Read the following story and see if you can find the theme.
The Wolf
I shouldn’t have stopped to watch him. I let him see me, but I couldn’t look away. He glided soundlessly out of the cover of the trees. Huge, the grey and white coat forming a thick mane behind his massive head. Steam burst in a cloud around his face as he breathed out, then thrust his canine snout deep into one of my snowy footprints. Smelling me, tracking me.
That’s when he sees me. Those steel grey eyes lock on me. He’s measuring his strengths, calculating the odds, debating his options. Statue still. Nothing alive should be able to stand that still. I wonder if he’s alone? Will he suddenly begin to howl for his pack, or is he an old Alpha, his strength tested to it’s breaking point, usurped by one younger and stronger. Driven finally from his clan to make his way, alone and hungry in the pale cold winter.
I could turn and try to run. plod in knee deep snow as he glides across the distance between us until I feel his breath on my neck. Or I can stand and wait. I can wait and find out who we both are today. Is he a guest in my wood, or I a guest at his table?

History
The Warren Court
In 1953 President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed the governor of California, Earl Warren, to be the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. With a reputation as a fair but tough law and order politician, Warren became an activist on the bench, greatly expanding the power of the Supreme Court.
Under Warren the Supreme Court handed down several landmark rulings. In 1954, the court ruled in Brown v. the Board of Education, which effectively ended segregation in public schools. The Brown decision was not just a powerful moral statement, it also demonstrated the power of the Court to affirm individual rights.
The area in which the Warren Court was most active was in the area of criminal law. In 1961 the court ruled in the case of Mapp v. Ohio that evidence seized illegally could not be used as evidence at trial. In 1963, in Gideon v. Wainwright, the court ruled that criminal defendants were entitled to publicly funded counsel. In 1966, in the famous Miranda v. Arizona case, the Court ruled that police had to explain legal rights clearly to people in custody. Collectively, these cases and others remade the United States’ legal framework and made Earl Warren a major figure in the shaping of the way citizens interacted with their government.
