What does the phrase “sun through the trees printing her dress with soft luminous paws” (Lines 14-16) mean as used in the poem? Poem:
I was four in this photograph fishing
with my grandparents at a lake in Michigan.
My brother squats in poison ivy.
His Davy Crockett cap
sits squared on his head so the raccoon tail
flounces down the back of his sailor suit.
My grandfather sits to the far right
in a folding chair,
and I know his left hand is on
the tobacco in his pants pocket
because I used to wrap it for him
every Christmas. Grandmother’s hips
bulge from the brush, she’s leaning
into the ice chest, sun through the trees
printing her dress with soft
luminous paws.
I am staring jealously at my brother;
the day before he rode his first horse, alone.
I was strapped in a basket
behind my grandfather.
He smelled of lemons. He's died—
but I remember his hands.
Answer:
The answer is "the sunlight made a pattern on her dress"

President Obama’s National Address to America’s Schoolchildren
Which claim made in the speech is supported by reasons or evidence?
"The story of America isn’t about people who quit when things got tough."
"You might have to read something a few times before you understand it."
"You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song."
"You're not a varsity athlete the first time you play a new sport."
Answer: "You're not a varsity athlete the first time you play a new sport."
Explanation:
Varsity athletes have usually trained for years to earn the right to become athletes at a university level and even if they only became athletes at varsity level, they did not get selected to be varsity athletes from that first time thy played the sport.
They had to play a lot more times to be chosen to play at that level. This goes to show that the first time you play a sport, you cannot be a varsity athlete.
Of course the President meant this figuratively in that you cannot be as good as a varsity level athlete the first time you play a sport, but even this is still supported by reasons and evidence because you need to have practiced for a while to get to that level.
Spring and Fall
To a Young Child
by Gerard Manley Hopkins
Márgarét, áre you gríeving
Over Goldengrove unleaving?
Leáves like the things of man, you
With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?
Ah! ás the heart grows older
It will come to such sights colder
By and by, nor spare a sigh
Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie;
And yet you wíll weep and know why.
Now no matter, child, the name:
Sórrow’s spríngs áre the same.
Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed
What heart heard of, ghost guessed:
It ís the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for.
What do the falling leaves represent in "Spring and Fall"?
the heart that grows colder as years go by
the sadness felt by young people
the inevitability of aging and death
the process of learning and growing

Into the wild chapter 17 - What did Andy Horowitz say about Chris?
Answer:
A year after McCandless wanted to cross the river, Krakauer stands on the other side, also wanting to cross, with three companions. Krakauer has a map that shows that there is a gauging station only half a mile downstream, which has a wire crossing the river, and a basket that one can ride across in. When they get to the station, they see that the basket is on the far side of the river, and it had been there when McCandless wanted to cross—had he known about it, he easily could have crossed to safety. McCandless, however, wanted to be on uncharted territory, and so didn’t carry a good map with him.

Why did Swift publish his ideas in satirical format?
Answer:
He wanted his readers to see their own errors in logic and morality.
Jonathan Swift, arguably the greatest of all satirists, is very well-known for employing this form of literature that employs irony and humor, blended in a poignant social critique, to state a social issue of a problematic and unjust nature in order to signal its inhumane deficiencies and point towards a change of perspective that could foster social justice and care for those who are being wronged.

Which is the best example of a character archetype?
A. Francine, a busy mother who struggles to raise her son lan
B. A witty trickster who can talk himself out of any problem
C. A well-paid aircraft mechanic who is also a musical genius
D. A necktie that can observe the world just like a person
Answer:
B
Explanation:
A character archetype is kind of like a really general or even generic character that represents a specific trait, behavior, or moral, etc. A and C are too specific - they really only fit one specific person. The last one simply isn't a character - or at least it's too abstract to represent a specific trait in a person. However, B is a personality that can be applied to many people and characters alike.
