Answer: d.The length of these elements reflects and stresses the importance of the speakers' actions.

Explanation:

The poem <em>We Real Cool</em>  by <em>Gwendolyn Brooks</em> speaks of the actions of a what we can assume are a group of teenagers. They skip school, they play pool, they stay out late and they drink strong liquor and so they think they are cool but know they will die soon.

We learn all these from very short lines and stanzas which were done that way to stress the importance of the actions of the teenagers. Gwendolyn Brooks did not want the actions of the speaker to be lost in a lot of words but instead wanted the actions of the speaker to be well pronounced such that the reader understands the impact that the actions of the speaker could have on them.

How do you think the map influenced established immigrants who saw it in the 1860s?
Dahasolnce [82]
All of the names on the map are Irish, so the map suggests that Irish immigrants may take over the United States by the 1900s.
You may well be right about people's fears that immigrants, lots of them from Ireland, would overrun the country. Look up when the potato famine was, though. The map may be from the early 1900s, but, if so, not about the potato famine in Ireland.

I hope this helps.
