The excerpt above is from page 21 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling. Which passage represents a summary

from the excerpt above? Harry Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, unaware that his life has changed forever (Rowling 21). A wind sweeps gently over the trimmed hedges of Privet Drive, which lies quiet and neat under the dark sky, not a place where one would expect anything out of the ordinary to occur (Rowling 21). While Potter lies outside his aunt and uncle's house, he "[sleeps] on, not knowing he [is] special" and praised all over the country (Rowling 21). The Harry Potter books are so entertaining because they paint a picture of a world in which we all want to live. We all long to find that extraordinary secret that will reveal our own special quality. Like little infant Potter waiting outside his aunt and uncle’s house (Rowling 21), it's just a matter of time until we find that we are, after all, special.

Evgesh-ka [11]

"By the Waters of Babylon" is a short story written by Stephen Vincent Benet and it was published in 1937. This story is about an post-apocalyptic world in which a man, John, struggles to find the "Place of the Gods", following the beliefs and customs of his people, the hill people. John, and his people, believe that dead people are truly gods. Many are the adventures faced by this character as he undertakes what his father used to believe was a spiritual pathway, but that in truth was a journey to find the forbidden place.

1. This story is about a young character, John, who must face the destroyed industrial world and the difficulties of C: a post apocalyptic environment.

2. The rising action, which is the events that lead to the climax in a story, are a series of conflicts that the narrator, John, faces when he: C: travels to the Place of the Gods, which was John´s true goal.

3. The climax of the story, which is the highest point of the action, where all the attention if going to focus as the central issue, is when John realizes that in truth, those whom he and his people believed were gods, were in truth humans who were once overcome by their own sense of power. Correct answer here then is B: the gods were people.

4. The resolution of the story, the point at which all conflicts are resolved and explained, occurs when John returns to his people, the Hill People and, convinced by his father, that telling people the truth might be harmful, decides to state that : B: they must rebuild society slowly and carefully.

Read the descriptions of rhyme schemes below.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The poem "Harlem" uses the free verse form of poetry.

Explanation:

Langston Hughes' poem "Harlem" was written in the form of a free verse which means that there is no specific rhyme scheme or meter form. Free verse poems are nonetheless poetic. The absence of any consistent rhyme scheme did not defer in the poem's meaningful expression of the poem.

Hughes'<em> "Harlem"</em> is in the form of a question which the poet directed to the readers. The poem goes like this-

<em>What happens to a dream deferred? </em>

<em>      Does it dry up </em>

<em>      like a raisin in the sun? </em>

<em>      Or fester like a sore— </em>

<em>      And then run? </em>

<em>      Does it stink like rotten meat? </em>

<em>      Or crust and sugar over— </em>

<em>      like a syrupy sweet? </em>

<em />

<em>      Maybe it just sags </em>

<em>      like a heavy load. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>      Or does it explode?</em>

There are no specific rhyming scheme though some words do rhyme in some lines (sun/run, meat/sweet etc). But overall, there is no indication of any sense of rhyming or meter form.
