Answer and Explanation:
What "cage" did Lizabeth realize that her and her childhood companions were trapped in during the Great Depression?
Lizabeth is a character is Eugenia Collier's short story "Marigolds", set during the Great Depression. According to Lizabeth, who is also the narrator of the story, the cage in which she and the other children in story were trapped was poverty.
How did this "cage" limit Lizabeth and her companions, and how did they react to it as children?
<u>Lizabeth says poverty is a cage because it limits her and her companions. They know, unconsciously, that they will never grow out of it, that they will never be anything else other than very poor. However, since they cannot understand that consciously yet, the children and Lizabeth react to that reality with destruction. They channel their inner frustrations, project their anger outwards - more specifically, they destroy Miss Lottie's garden of marigolds.</u>
<em>"I said before that we children were not consciously aware of how thick were the bars of our cage. I wonder now, though, whether we were not more aware of it than I thought. Perhaps we had some dim notion of what we were, and how little chance we had of being anything else. Otherwise, why would we have been so preoccupied with destruction? Anyway, the pebbles were collected quickly, and everybody looked at me to begin the fun."</em>
Answer: C) ABCB.
Explanation: To determinate the rhyme scheme of a poem we need to pay attention to the ending sound of each line and we need to assign the same letter to similar sounds and different letters to different sounds. In the given poem, we have that the second and last lines end with similar sounds: "toes" and "knows" and the first and third lines end with different sounds: "bottom" and "end", and the second verse is also like that (second and last lines: "shy" and "spy" and the first and third lines are different: "bold" and "me"). So the rhyme scheme would be ABCB.

Evidence is "the last time our park was cleaned, visitors to the park increased by 23 percent."
Explanation:
- The claim that the author is making here is that the local park is in a poor condition and that it is up to everyone to clean it.
- The reason for making this claim is that if the park is cleaned, more people will visit the local park, and the kids will have a cleaner place to play.
