Explanation: 12) D) Tom is characterized as clever though both internal monologue and dialogue.
Throughout the passage, Tom is trying to get out of going to school. It starts off with Tom's thinking about what he can do or what ailment he can fake so that he can stay home. He considers how his body feels before deciding on one to cleverly fake. Then, he acts upon this clever idea through his dialogue with Sid.
13) B) Tom shakes Sid in order to wake him up, so Sid can call for Aunt Polly.
Tom first tries a variety of groans to wake Sid up so he can get Aunt Polly. However, Sid is snoring so loud he doesn't wake up. Tom has to shake Sid in order to wake him. Tom then proceeds to groan more to really play up the injury and get Sid concerned about Tom's condition.
14) C) clever inventive ingenuity
Throughout the excerpt Tom is being clever and coming up with solutions to prevent him from going to school. While is behavior could also be considered deceptive and manipulative, that is not necessarily a trait that Americans would consider a classic trait of theirs.

the Harlem Renaissance was a rebirth of the musical and literary talent of the African American community. Named after the anthology of Alain Locke "The Negro Movement" of 1925, the Harlem Renaissance is a cultural and social movement that aimed to rediscover black culture and give voice to a society that was underlined.
Ralph Ellison
Both Langston Hughes and Ralph Ellison wrote about the inequality of African Americans during the modernist literary period. The modernist movement had a very self-conscious view of the society, and so the inequality was perceived as something to fix and denounce like many writers did in their work, in order to have an impact over the culture.
less traditional
in the 1960s poetry became less traditional. All the rules about poetry were erased at the beginning of a movement that rejected everything that existed before, in response to the fast change of a new society on the rise and as a wake-up call towards a society that had produced the devastation of the world war II.
they rejected the literary
The beat generation rejected the literary because they thought that literacy was part of a society that was no more existing.
