1. The correct answer here is the first option.
This poem by Langston Hughes who was born in 1902 and died in 1967 was a poet and social journalist among other things. In this poem which consists of two stanzas Hughes writes about the dreams, especially those of the African Americans. Here that dream is to be free and secure without constrain.

2. The correct answer here is the second option.
Both "Why We Wear Masks" and "I, too" by Paul Laurence Dunbar and Langston Hughes are similar in tone which is one of determination in making the society better. Dunbar shows in his poem that all is not well in the American society and the situation for the African Americans was not as good as it seemed. So he spoke out with determination in order to make the situation better. Hughes also spoke with determination about perseverance in the African American battle for equality which was long way from over.

3. That would be the second option.
The literary art of the Harlem Renaissance was influenced by the African American culture which was distancing itself from the white stereotypes and defining itself in its own terms through breaking apart from the Victorian moral which was able to enhance the prejudices the whites could have. This is all part of the cultural influence which could be defined as the factors (familial, historical and geographical) that shape and influence the certain processes which here is the Harlem Renaissance.
