The courage that my mother had

Went with her, and is with her still:

Rock from New England quarried;

Now granite in a granite hill.

The golden brooch my mother wore

She left behind for me to wear;

I have nothing I treasure more:

Yet, it is something I could spare.

Oh, if instead, she'd left to me

The thing she took into the grave! -

That courage like a rock, which she

Has no more need of, and I have.

—“The Courage That My Mother Had,”
Edna St. Vincent Milla

Reread the poem. Look at the details in each stanza and write one to two sentences explaining the central idea of the poem.

The central idea of the poem is how her mother died and took her courage with her, something her child does not have. The child states how since she is dead she took it with her to her grave which is why they said she does not need it anymore. The mother left behind a golden brooch that she wore since it would remind her child of her even when she is gone. But the child wants her courage, not her brooch.

Cool person if you help me please, Read the excerpt from "We Are All Bound Up Together” by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper.

We are all bound up together in one great bundle of humanity, and society cannot trample on the weakest and feeblest of its members without receiving the curse in its own soul. You tried that in the case of the negro. You pressed him down for two centuries; and in so doing you crippled the moral strength and paralyzed the spiritual energies of the white men of the country. When the hands of the black were fettered, white men were deprived of the liberty of speech and the freedom of the press. Society cannot afford to neglect the enlightenment of any class of its members.

The author uses the words "crippled” and "paralyzed” to convince her audience that

racist people should be punished.
racism hurts everyone in society.
privileged people must help those less privileged.
privilege is something that needs to be earned.

Passage:

adapted from Hide and Seek
by Fyodor Sologub

Everything in Lelechka's nursery was bright, pretty, and cheerful. Lelechka was a delightful child, and her sweet voice charmed her mother. Lelechka's eyes were dark and large, her cheeks were rosy, and her lips were made for laughter, but it was not these charms in Lelechka that gave her mother the keenest joy. Lelechka was her mother's only child and that is why every movement of Lelechka's enchanted her mother. It was great bliss to hold Lelechka on her knees and to feel the little girl in her arms—a thing as lively and as bright as a little bird.
"Mamochka, let's play priatki (hide and seek)," cried Lelechka
Her charming inability to speak correctly always made Serafima, her mother, smile with tender rapture. Lelechka then ran away, stamping with her plump little legs over the carpets, and hid herself behind the curtains near her bed.
"Where is my baby girl?" the mother asked, as she looked for Lelechka and made her believe that she did not see her, and Lelechka poured out her rippling laughter in her hiding place. Then she came out a little farther, and her mother, as though she had only just caught sight of her, seized her by her little shoulders and exclaimed joyously, "Here she is, my Lelechka!"

Question:

How does the point of view affect the plot of the passage?
A. The reader knows only what the narrator thinks and sees.
B. The reader knows what some characters think and see.
C. The reader knows what Lelechka feels about Serafima.
D. The reader knows only what Serafima sees and believes.
