Personification and a surprise ending
The use of "Timothy" implies that Grandfather is merely taking his grandson to the zoo; however, the twist ending is that Timothy is a tiger. Suddenly the reason "no one would share a compartment with them" is all too clear-- no one would want to share a compartment with a large tiger.

cluponka [151]
Perhaps Dunbar uses the image of a mask as wearing a face allows us to conceal our face - enabling us to hide any expression or emotion. In his poem, he mentions how black people felt the need to appear as content or happy when surrounded by people who were white - especially when they felt the opposite. The mask represents the false expressions the blacks had to wear.

Question 4: Does the sentence below change mood? Take stock of your situation, and, while there is still time, you can stop to w
zmey [24]

We can actually see here the sentence below changes mood. Therefore it is a YES.

<h3>What is mood?</h3>

In grammar, grammatical mood actually talks about the form of a verb as seen in a sentence. It usually denotes the tone of a verb used in a sentence which clearly states what the writer or speaker is saying.

There are three main verb moods. They are:

  • Indicative mood
  • Imperative mood
  • Subjunctive mood.

We see here that mood isn't "feelings" but rather a form of verb that is written or spoken with an intention.

Thus, we see here that the given changes mood. This is true because there is a "take stock" and then a "stop".
