What do you think the author feels about their childhood?


Answers

In I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, author Maya Angelou’s purpose is to tell about her childhood, while her viewpoint shows how she thinks and feels about her childhood. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is a 1969 autobiography recounting the early years of American writer and poet Maya Angelou.

It is clear that this title had great significance to Angelou, as it was the title of her entire life story. In her autobiography, she talked about the struggle of being a black author and poet. She often felt that her words were not heard because of the color of her skin. She felt that in some ways, she was still experiencing slavery. Although African American people were free people in Angelou’s time, there were still many restrictions on them in society, making it so that many black Americans did not feel free at all.

Read the excerpt below and then answer the question that follows:

The Book of Dragons
Chapter III The Deliverers of Their Country, an excerpt
By E. Nesbit

It all began with Effie's getting something in her eye. It hurt very much indeed, and it felt something like a red-hot spark—only it seemed to have legs as well, and wings like a fly. Effie rubbed and cried—not real crying, but the kind your eye does all by itself without your being miserable inside your mind—and then she went to her father to have the thing in her eye taken out. Effie's father was a doctor, so of course he knew how to take things out of eyes.

When he had gotten the thing out, he said: "This is very curious." Effie had often got things in her eye before, and her father had always seemed to think it was natural—rather tiresome and naughty perhaps, but still natural. He had never before thought it curious.

Effie stood holding her handkerchief to her eye, and said: "I don't believe it's out." People always say this when they have had something in their eyes.

"Oh, yes—it's out," said the doctor. "Here it is, on the brush. This is very interesting."

Effie had never heard her father say that about anything that she had any share in. She said: "What?"

The doctor carried the brush very carefully across the room, and held the point of it under his microscope—then he twisted the brass screws of the microscope, and looked through the top with one eye.

"Dear me," he said. "Dear, dear me! Four well-developed limbs; a long caudal appendage; five toes, unequal in lengths, almost like one of the Lacertidae, yet there are traces of wings." The creature under his eye wriggled a little in the castor oil, and he went on: "Yes; a bat-like wing. A new specimen, undoubtedly. Effie, run round to the professor and ask him to be kind enough to step in for a few minutes."

"You might give me sixpence, Daddy," said Effie, "because I did bring you the new specimen. I took great care of it inside my eye, and my eye does hurt."

The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.

But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"

The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief.

"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."

It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch long—with scales and wings.

So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.

And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings.

"Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."

And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadays—and at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.

What words best describe the tone set by the narrator in the opening lines? (5 points)

A. Amazed, fearful, sinister
B. Interested, entertained, concerned
C. Peculiar, odd, strange
D. Suspicious, outrageous, funny

Answers

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

I used process of elimination.

Answer A doesn't work because there was no "amazed" and "sinister" part in the opening lines.

Answer B doesn't work because "entertained" isn't really an adjective to describe the opening lines.

Answer D doesn't work because there's nothing "funny" about getting something stuck in your eye.

I hope this is correct.

I think C is the most appropriate for the tone.

Pay It Off!
Let's say you have $1,000 in savings and are making 6
percent interest. That means that you make $60 a month
in interest. Let's also say that you have $500 you need to
pay off on your credit card. By not paying it off, they charge
you 18 percent interest a month. That means you owe an
extra $90 a month! It's just foolish to keep putting money
in a savings account when you have credit cards to pay off.
You'll save money if you pay off the credit cards and then
start saving
Save It!
I don't know why people don't try to save more. Now, it's
smart to go ahead and work on paying off any debt you
currently have on credit cards. But, it's even better to stop
using your credit cards! Instead of constantly buying
things on credit cards, put your money in a savings
account and wait until you have the cash to buy what you
want. That way you won't end up losing all your money to
credit card debt! Try to stop spending and start saving.
What is a common main idea from both of these texts?
A. It's important to pay off debt.
O B. You should never pay off debt.
C. It's a good idea to open a savings account.
D. You should always save.

Which of the following is not a part of speech A. adjective B. sentence C. noun D. preposition

Answers

Answer:

The option that is not a part of speech is:

B. sentence

Explanation:

It is important to understand the parts of speech to be able to correctly determine how a word functions in a sentence, not just grammatically, but also in meaning. It is also important to keep in mind that the same word may function as more than just one part of speech, according to the context. There are eight parts of speech: noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection. As we can see, option B. sentence is not included. As a matter of fact, a sentence is usually the result of the parts of speech being in use.

My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.

I have seen roses damask’d, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.

I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go—
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground.

And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.

—“Sonnet 130,”
William Shakespeare

4. Which detail from the story provides the best clue that the narrator's relationship with his
mother changed after his sister's death?

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

It causes the narrator to consider what could happen to him if he doesn't leave the reservation.

Answer:

The effect of Mary's death on the narrator is that C. It leads to the narrator having a stronger ...

Explanation:

This change in attitude towards the mother became necessary when Mary died. Her death brought the narrator to the realization that life is not permanent. It is ephemeral and can end anytime.

There is no time for procrastination. It is better to enjoy the love of your family now, developing stronger relationships with each other, than to wait until all things are right.

In this moving and emotion-filled memoir, "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me " by Sherman Alexie, the experience from the death of Mary taught the narrator that all things cannot be right.  Death removes the complications of life.

Thus, Mary's death led the narrator to develop a stronger relationship with his mother than when Mary was still alive.

How does the use of third person narration affect readers understanding of the seventh man?
Please help!!

Answers

Explanation:

One may ask: what is a third-person narration? Well, in simple words, it refers to story-telling from the point of view of another person not involved in the said action; usually the narrator.

Therefore, by narrating "the Seventh Man" story from the third-person point of view, readers are able to better understand what is been said; as it was understood by the narrator.

Recall, that the story is a flashback of a man; the seventh man recounting his life experiences to a group of men (the observers), so the author Haruki Murakami writes as though he was in the "small house" house when the seventh man's story was being told; and so he was giving first-hand information.

Women and men were not equal in the 19th century. Women were seen as 'the weaker sex'. This particularly affected middle class women because they had no reason to leave the home or go to work. The middle classes took the role of women very seriously because they did not have to worry about things like poverty. The ideal woman was to be 'the angel in the house' and support her husband.
