Roosevelt means that a <em>muck-raker</em> - a journalist- is that person interested in dirt or filthy things - <em>muck</em>-. That person will do anything to get filthy information and to get it,  he / she will use a  <em>rake </em>to scratch the soil - or reality -  to pick up or invent the dark side of  humans. Roosevelt is furious because a group of journalists have disclosed controversial issues from his government. He shows his anger through   this speech on "The Man with the Muck- Rake" (1906).

Write a short free verse poem describing the panda bear in the image.
Setler79 [48]

When the panda bear thinks about sleeping

His hunger begins to speak

For the food he thinks about leaving

But sleep forces him to stay


When eating, sleep weighs

In sleep, hunger awakens him

Eat and sleep and live


While he strife

In the movie of his life

The panda bear dances

And moves as he fancies

How do the speakers in Shakespeare and Robert Frost’s poems agree on life? How do they disagree?
8090 [49]

Answer: William Shakespeare's poem "The seven ages of men" portrays as journey, as fate man has been granted to live. A life given to live throughout the seven ages being shown. Robert Frosts "The road not taken" gives us a sense of choices, a path that we may chose for ourselves. For we will never know what either hold, but only what we seek. Both writers show ways life may be lived, however they show opposing view points on how it is lived. They bring us to the same question many ask themselves, do we chose our fate, or does fate chose us?

Explanation: I hope this helps, both are wonderful pieces of literature as well as amazing writers
