English

Answer:

The poem shows that embracing one's identity leads to bigger dreams. This is evident when<em> the girl never backed down in playing the drums </em>despite people telling her she shouldn't and couldn't do it because <u>it is only reserved for the boys.</u>

Explanation:

"Drum Dream Girl" is a poem written by<em> Margarita Engle.</em> It centers on the character of a girl who lives on an island where music is popular (particularly, <em>playing the drums)</em>. Although she knew that only boys were allowed to play the drum, she continued to follow her dreams and<em> even became better</em> on it because<em> she was passionate.</em>

This situation led to<em> his father's hiring of a music teacher</em> who would judge the girl's skills in drumming. The teacher was impressed with her skills and gave her a chance to play at a starlit cafe for everyone to hear.  

So, this shows that when one embraces her identity, whether it be gender or race, there is always <u>a possibility of succes</u>s in achieving one's goal. <u>This leads to bigger dreams.</u>

Read this passage from "The Black Cat":
Virty [35]
B. It establishes a slow buildup to the climax of the story.

The short sentences increase the tension of this particular “scene” in the story. They show how the narrator (the person speaking) is having to make quick decisions in order to seem innocent. The short sentences show this and increase the tension towards the climax.

The sun's rays caressed the plants that were drooping from the heavy rains.

I am not quite sure what you want because that is not a question. Therefore there cannot be an answer. But, if you were looking for an opinion on that sentence I can give you that. First of all, caressed may not be the right word to use. You could go into more detail though.
 Such as:
The sun looked down upon the plant, it reached out and lifted it up from the rain. 
It could be along those lines, I hope that helps I really didn't know what you wanted to hear.
