Just using common knowledge, most poems are written in a symbolic form. Like, figuratively.
So, I would start out by kind of trying to decipher the poem, or figuring out what the author is trying to say. The theme, basically.

BUT if there are specific answer choices, please please please show them to me, I would hate for you to miss a question because of me.

Read this excerpt from “The Monkey’s Paw” by W.W. Jacobs. Which lines reflect the theme that men must never go against fate?

Maru [420]

this is the excerpt

He took something out of his pocket and proffered it. Mrs. White drew back with a grimace, but her son, taking it, examined it curiously.

"And what is there special about it?" inquired Mr. White as he took it from his son, and having examined it, placed it upon the table.

"It had something put on it by an old Fakir," said the Sargeant-Major, "a very respected man. He wanted to show that fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow. He put a spell on it so that three separate men could each have three wishes from it."

"And did you really have the three wishes granted?" asked Mrs. White.

"I did," said the seargent-major, and his glass tapped against his strong teeth.

"And has anybody else wished?" persisted the old lady.

"The first man had his three wishes. Yes," was the reply, "I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for demise. That's how I got the paw."

His tones were so grave that a hush fell upon the group.

We are supposed to fill in the blanks using the verbs in parentheses in either the Simple Pat tense or the Present Perfect tense:

1. Are you going to have a rest tonight? You look tired. You have read so much.

2, Have you played that game yest? No, I haven't. I'm going to do it tonight.

3, Jane hasn't talked to me this week.

4. Would you like some more coffee? No, thanks. I have already had three cups.

5. The room looks so clean! Thanks, I have just vacuumed in here.

6. How many times have you seen him today?

7. His joke didn't come off yesterday. Nobody laughed.

8. I bought this car last week. It cost an arm and a leg.

9. I haven't danced since my childhood.

10. We had a lot of fun last summer. We went to Croatia by car and took a lot of photos.

The Simple Past tense is used to talk about actions that took place at a specific time in the past.

The action is over and does not present an evident connection with the present moment.

Common time expressions used with the Simple Past tense are: <u>yesterday, last week, last month, last years, a couple of days ago, three years ago</u>, etc.

Example: I saw you at the party last night.

The Present Perfect tense is used to talk about actions that happened or started to happen in the past and still have a connection with the present moment.
