EXCERPT FROM ESCAPE AND ENTRANCE

must first become a prisoner. Prison is both a cell of anxiety and a cell of
opportunity. In a sense, writing is my breaking from the prison of anxiety but is also
my wanting to enter such room of opportunity.

As a person who never truly found his voice in speaking, I resorted to the
medium that gave me allowance to compose my thoughts, I found myself in writing.
Whenever placed in a situation of speech, the feeling of a drumroll heartbeat, pulses
racing on and off, sweat gliding through my body welcomes me; I feel as if the whole
world is staring down from an invisible distance, and that world forms its own arm
to rage off and drown me in my own container. Je e Be a Pa c
Prison seemed too much an entity. I was there, in one of the cells, conscious in every

the middle of that prison had unparalleled power. Michel Foucault was right,
surveillance was an authority not to be reckoned with. Everything was a feeling; I
felt chocked, I felt watched over, I felt judged, I felt mocked, and I felt contained
but these were all in my head, consumed by something I subjected myself with.

Escaping from such a nightmare barred with walls of steel, a mighty pen let
itself known, whispering to my ear that hope is not lost, promising that its utility
would penetrate the room that otherwise would be impassable. So, I did, from the
moment I held it with my fingers and palm, steel turned to cardboard and the gates
crumbled like falling debris. The pen gave me what speech never could a voice.
6. Based on the passage, what did the writer find in writing?

a. As a symbolic interpretation of how humans act under authoritative

b. As a literal and powerful way to establish power over criminals and

c. As an escape from societal oppression
d. As an outlet to freely express emotions and thoughts
8. Based on the passage, who was the designer of the Panopticon?
a. Jeremy Bentham c. John Lennon

HOTEL CALIFORNIA
The Eagles

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair


Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California


Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz


She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain


"Please bring me my wine."
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine."
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California


Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling


The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember


I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check-out any time you like
But you can never leave!"

Heaven or Hell. At the end of the song, for the speaker, was the hotel Heaven,
or Hell?

b. Heaven d. Neither
