Reаd the pаssаge belоw frоm Rоdney Dangerfield’s memoir It’s Not Easy Bein’ Me. Then choose the five (5) statements after the passage which are most logically supported by the information given. Passage #1 We lived in the Bronx for a year, then moved to a rooming house in Far Rockaway, Long Island, near the ocean, on July 19. My mother waited until that date so that she could get the place cheap—$39 for the rest of the summer. The three of us—my mother, my sister, and me— lived in one room, ten long blocks from the beach. But it was a beach. My first day there I saw a kid I knew from the Bronx. He was selling ice cream on the beach. That became my job for the next four summers. It was hard work for a young kid— carrying around a heavy carton of ice cream loaded with dry ice so that the ice cream wouldn’t melt. It was also against the law, but no one cared—a minor offense—and I could make at least a dollar a day. For that kind of money I became a criminal. That first summer I did pretty good. I saved $100, and my mother put it in a bank for me. When I looked at my bankbook a few months later, I was shocked. All my money was gone. When I asked my mother about this, she just said that she’d needed it. And that was it. I said to myself, Hey, what’s the big deal? It’s your mother. But then I thought, She should have at least sat me down and told me what was going on before she took it. 19That would have been easier for me, but that was how my mother did things.
