In Longfellow’s poem "The Village Blacksmith," Longfellow never gives a name to the blacksmith. By not naming the blacksmith, Lo

ngfellow makes him universal. This means the blacksmith can represent anyone in America who is a honest, hardworking member of the community. Who is someone you believe is like the village blacksmith?
In your answer make sure you have at least five sentences and cite at least two lines from the poem with page numbers that you would use to describe the person you believe is like the village blacksmith.

Answer:

My dad is like the village blacksmith.

The first and second verse of the poem, the writer describes the physical attributes of the blacksmith.

Then in verse 3, the blacksmith's innate qualities of consistency, and hard work are unravelled.

This is very typical of my dad who though is a farmer never slips up on his work and always keeps his promise.

Another quality of the blacksmith that I see in my dad is found in verse 5. It reads that the blacksmith sits amongst the boys on Sunday, connoting that he is a Christian.

My dad, same as the blacksmith not only goes to church on Sunday. He prays and teaches us to do the same.

He is quite inclined towards God. I guess it's because much like the blacksmith who from steel forges various kinds of tools and shapes objects, He recognises that many of the things around us too were "forged" by a Superior Blacksmith.

Cheers!

Ilya [14]

It depends on what that paragraph says. I don't have sufficient context to provide a solid answer.

If I had to guess, your paragraph was most likely about the conflict between ideals of individualism and community.

What challenges does Skloot face in communicating with Deborah? How is Deborah a difficult research subject herself?
SOVA2 [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not mention the book or the text you are referring to. Without information is difficult to know what you are talking about.

However, trying to help you we did some deep research and can comment on the following general terms.

First, you are referring to the book called "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks Teachers' Guide," written by Rebecca Skloot, a science writer that has published many interesting articles on this subject in prestigious slots such as the New York Times magazine.

The challenges that Skloot faced in communicating with Deborah was Deborah's personality and resistance to talk with Kloot. Deborah was a difficult research subject herself because she did not trust Kloot and her research. Deborah is the daughter of Henrietta, and for 20 years never knew about the existence of her mother's cells and that medical and research laboratories were investing millions of dollars in developing medicines. That is why Deborah showed resistance to talk to Skloot. She did not have a clear idea about what has happened with the cells of her mother and the purpose of the research.
