Read the passage below and answer the question that follows: from Heidi By Johanna Spyri The early light of morning lay rosy red

upon the mountains, and a fresh breeze rustled through the fir trees and set their ancient branches waving to and fro. The sound awoke Heidi and she opened her eyes. The roaring in the trees always stirred a strong emotion within her and seemed to draw her irresistibly to them. So she jumped out of bed and dressed herself as quickly as she could, but it took her some time even then, for she was careful now to be always clean and tidy. When she went down her ladder she found her grandfather had already left the hut. He was standing outside looking at the sky and examining the landscape as he did every morning, to see what sort of weather it was going to be. Little pink clouds were floating over the sky, that was growing brighter and bluer with every minute, while the heights and the meadow lands were turning gold under the rising sun, which was just appearing above the topmost peaks. "O how beautiful! how beautiful! Good-morning, grandfather!" cried Heidi, running out. "What, you are awake already, are you?" he answered, giving her a morning greeting. Then Heidi ran round to the fir trees to enjoy the sound she loved so well, and with every fresh gust of wind which came roaring through their branches she gave a fresh jump and cry of delight. Read the excerpt below and answer the question that follows: The early light of morning lay rosy red upon the mountains, and a fresh breeze rustled through the fir trees and set their ancient branches waving to and fro. The sound awoke Heidi and she opened her eyes. The roaring in the trees always stirred a strong emotion within her and seemed to draw her irresistibly to them. So she jumped out of bed and dressed herself as quickly as she could, but it took her some time even then, for she was careful now to be always clean and tidy.

The author's argument about life in the mountains would be that life was emotional and beautiful. According to the text, it states, "while the heights and the meadow lands were turning gold under the rising sun, which was just appearing above the topmost peaks."  Another piece of evidence is: "<span>The roaring in the trees always stirred a strong emotion within her and seemed to draw her irresistibly to them." </span>This supports the author's argument that life in the mountains was actually very enchanting.

In what terms did Wordsworth describe the french revolution?
kkurt [141]

As it was an offense to write supporting the French Revolution, Wordsworth used his creativity to use figurative language and metaphors in order to disguise his true opinions on the issue.Because he was suspected of being some kind of French spy, he defended social justice and freedom of thought in ways only his readers and colleagues would understand.He described the revolution as fair because it was a scream for liberties people did not have.He also used words for showing his disapproval of the British attitude against the revolution.He mentioned the multitudes being oppressed, principles not taken into account and also said that these issues woke the anger of people ,who  for obvious reasons reacted violently
