Answer:
Stevenson wanted to say that this poem was extremely striking and so profound that it can reach very remote points of the human soul.
I believe that the poem is chilling as a whole and that no part stands out, because all its lines are equally striking.
Explanation:
When Stevenson states that "the furthest reaches of disdain and rage ... bereft of all 'normal human feelings," she means that what she has just read is something very strong and loaded with meaning, capable of touching the reader of grandly. That's because the poem is extremely deep and can reach very remote parts of the soul and trigger feelings so strong and obscure that the beds didn't even know they had them.
This question is missing the answer options. I have found them online. They are the following:
A. "She reached the end of the street and made one majestic leap..."
B. "The stray cat stalked down the street."
C. "Her walk was proud..."
D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Answer:
The detail that contains an allusion is:
D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Explanation:
As is explained in the instructions, an allusion is a reference to a famous character or person, one whose story - true or fictional - is well known.
<u>In the passage we are analyzing here, the allusion takes place when the author mentions Cleopatra, a famous queen from Ancient Egypt. By comparing the cat to Cleopatra, the narrator is attributing characteristics of the queen to the animal - dignity, pride, beauty, elegance. </u>The allusion makes is possible for the author to not have to say those words. Since everyone knows who Cleopatra was and what traits and behaviors she was famous for, by simply alluding to her, the author conveys a deeper description.
To build suspense. Plays are not interesting without conflict. In this case the conflict surround John Proctor, the tragic hero, we would not be interested in Puritan drama.
