Mr. Phileas Fogg lived, in 1872, at No. 7, Saville Row, Burlington
Gardens. ... He was one of the most noticeable members of the Reform
Club,1 though he seemed always to avoid attracting attention; a
[mysterious) personage, about whom little was known, except that he was a
polished man of the world. ...
2 Was Phileas Fogg rich? Undoubtedly. But those who knew him best
could not imagine how he had made his fortune, and Mr. Fogg was the last
person to whom to apply for the information. He was not lavish, nor, on the
contrary, [greedy]; for, whenever he knew that money was needed for a
noble, useful, or benevolent purpose, he supplied it quietly and sometimes
anonymously. He was, in short, the least communicative of men. He talked
very little, and seemed all the more mysterious for his taciturn4 manner. His
daily habits were quite open to observation; but whatever he did was so
exactly the same thing that he had always done before, that the wits of the
curious were fairly puzzled.
3 Had he travelled? It was likely, for no one seemed to know the world
more familiarly; there was no spot so secluded that he did not appear to
have an intimate acquaintance with it. He often corrected, with a few clear
words, the thousand conjectures 5 advanced by members of the club as to

Which statement best expresses the central idea of "The Return of the Wolves"?

The Pony Express
Chapter I
At A Nation's Crisis

The Pony Express was the first rapid transit and the first fast mail line across the continent from the Missouri River to the Pacific Coast. It was a system by means of which messages were carried swiftly on horseback across the plains and deserts, and over the mountains of the far West. It brought the Atlantic coast and the Pacific slope ten days nearer to each other.

It had a brief existence of only sixteen months and was supplanted by the transcontinental telegraph. Yet it was of the greatest importance in binding the East and West together at a time when overland travel was slow and cumbersome, and when a great national crisis made the rapid communication of news between these sections an imperative necessity.

The Pony Express marked the highest development in overland travel prior to the coming of the Pacific railroad, which it preceded nine years. It, in fact, proved the feasibility of a transcontinental road and demonstrated that such a line could be built and operated continuously the year around—a feat that had always been regarded as impossible.

The operation of the Pony Express was a supreme achievement of physical endurance on the part of man and his ever faithful companion, the horse. The history of this organization should be a lasting monument to the physical sacrifice of man and beast in an effort to accomplish something worthwhile. Its history should be an enduring tribute to American courage and American organizing genius.
