    Vocabulary Word Story-Reading Passage:
    No one questioned the DISGRACEFUL conduct of the terrorists. The Office of Homeland Security wanted to have SENTINELs at every post office and POSTAL drop box. SENSORs to detect potential EXPOSURE to DISAGREEABLE items were also planned. Even a COMPOST pile accumulated by SENTIMENTAL environmentalists might be investigated! Its SUPPOSITION was that their department would receive CONGRATULATORY messages for the safeguards. There would be little RESENTMENT if the agency could GRATIFY the wishes of citizens.
