1. Read the excerpt from Rose in Bloom by Louisa May Alcott: But in spite of that the Don got through college with all the honors. Oh, wasn’t I proud when Aunt Jane wrote to us about it and didn’t she rejoice that her boy kept at the head of his class and won the medal!” cried Rose, shaking Mac by both hands in a way that caused Charlie to wish “the old chap” had been left behind with Dr. Alec. “Oh, come, that’s all Mother’s nonsense. I began earlier than the other fellows and liked it better, so I don’t deserve any praise. Prince is right, though. I did make a regular jack of myself, but on the whole I’m not sure that my wild oats weren’t better than some I’ve seen sowed. Anyway, they didn’t cost much, and I’m none the worse for them,” said Mac placidly. “I know what ‘wild oats’ means. I heard Uncle Mac say Charlie was sowing ’em too fast, and I asked Mama, so she told me. And I know that he was suspelled or expended, I don’t remember which, but it was something bad, and Aunt Clara cried,” added Jamie all in one breath, for he possessed a fatal gift of making malapropos remarks, which caused him to be a terror to his family. “Do you want to go on the box again?” demanded Prince with a warning frown. “No, I don’t.” “Then hold your tongue.” “Well, Mac needn’t kick me, for I was only…” began the culprit, innocently trying to make a bad matter worse. What can we infer from this passage? Charlie is envious of Mac’s success. Jamie is attempting to make Charlie look foolish. Prince is Jamie’s father, and feels responsible for his discipline. Mac is boastful of his achievements. 2. Read the excerpt from Moby wingspan by Herman Melville: Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people’s hats off-then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can. From this passage, what can we best infer about the narrator? He uses the ocean as a way to escape depression. He dislikes the monotony of everyday life. He is suicidal and wants to cause pain to others as well. He obsesses over death in the wintertime. 3. Read the following poem: “When You Are Old” By William Butler Yeats When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead And hid his face amid a crowd of stars. Why most likely did the author capitalize the word “Love”? In this poem, Love is the “you” to whom the author is referring. The author is assigning human qualities to Love to represent his own feelings. Love is representative of all humanity. Love is the name of a suitor of the object of the poem. 4. Read the following poem: “When You Are Old” By William Butler Yeats When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead And hid his face amid a crowd of stars. For what is the phrase “full of sleep” a metaphor? exhaustion old age the end of the day near death 5. Read the following poem: “Love’s Grave” By George Meredith Mark where the pressing wind shoots javelin-like, Its skeleton shadow on the broad-back’d wave! Here is a fitting spot to dig Love’s grave; Here where the ponderous breakers plunge and strike, And dart their hissing tongues high up the sand: In hearing of the ocean, and in sight Of those ribb’d wind-streaks running into white. If I the death of Love had deeply plann’d, I never could have made it half so sure, As by the unblest kisses which upbraid The full-waked sense; or failing that, degrade! ‘Tis morning: but no morning can restore What we have forfeited. I see no sin: The wrong is mix’d. In tragic life, God wot, No villain need be! Passions spin the plot: We are betray’d by what is false within. Which of the following phrases in this poem serves as an instance of onomatopoeia? “pressing wind” “plunge and strike” “hissing tongues” “unblest kisses”

Hissing tongues or unblest kisses. one of them. sorry i cant be of more help

Walt is asked to give a speech to his coworkers, and he decides to try to use a speech written by the great speaker President John F Kennedy. Walt is unlikely to succeed in his speech because _____. a. The audience will sense that he is being insincere b. The audience will not understand why he is speaking oddly c. The audience will lack engagement with his speech. d. All of the above

The correct answer is D. All of the above

Explanation:

Delivering a speech or giving a presentation for most people is one of the most difficult tasks as multiple factors need to be considered including the audience, the use of language, the purpose of the speech, the organization of the content, etc. Additionally, of all the aspects previously mentioned vary in every situation, which means each speech should be unique and respond to the context and situation of it. Because of this, using the speech of someone else instead of delivering the speech according to the factors previously mentioned might have different negative effects.

In the case of Walter delivering President Kenedy’s speech he might find the audience will not understand his purpose and the language he is using as Presidential speeches use different language to other speeches and languages and speeches have changed since Kennedy gave speeches (the 1960s); also, the audience will notice this and realize it is not Walter’s speech which means they will know he is not being authentic and because of this the audience will not be engaged to the speech or pay attention to the words of Walter which will make the speech a complete failure. Thus, in the case presented Waler is unlikely to succeed because the audience will feel he is unsincere, they will not understand why he is speaking oddly and will lack engagement with his speech or all of the above (Option D).

Which excerpt best exemplifies the gothic literary style? He approached the temple. As he went forward the light retired, and, when he put his feet within the apartment, utterly vanished. The suddenness of this transition increased the darkness that succeeded in a tenfold degree. Fear and wonder rendered him powerless. An occurrence like this, in a place assigned to devotion, was adapted to intimidate the stoutest heart. (from Wieland by Charles Brockden Brown) In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear. In the woods too, a man casts off his years, as the snake his slough, and at what period so ever of life, is always a child. In the woods, is perpetual youth. (from “Nature” by Ralph Waldo Emerson) Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time; (from “A Psalm of Life” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow) Darsie was the second daughter in a family of six, and by reason of her upsetting nature had won for herself that privilege of priority which by all approved traditions should have belonged to Clemence, the elder sister. (from A College Girl by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey)
