ELEN [110]3 years ago
5 0
There are a couple points that are significant about the boy finding his own drawings in the chest.

The chest was long the repository of things important to his mother. Finding his drawings in there showed him how his mother felt about him. He had created something that his mother deemed so important that she could not throw away.

The chest was also the repository of old things, things from the past. By finding his drawings in there, it was proof that his childhood was over, a thing from the past.

Why is Churchill's speech considered historically important?
Greeley [361]

Answer:

B. Because it renewed Britain's resolve to fight the war against Germany

Explanation:

Probably Churchill's most famous speech was that of June 18, 1940, when Britain was left alone in the war after the defeat of France, which occupied part of the territory occupied by the German army.

This speech earns important credit for cheering the UK on the eve of the British-German air confrontation over the waters of the English Channel.  Despite initial skepticism, Churchill's words inspired the British and for many historians played a key role in boosting Allied victory in World War II.

How does the use of stanzas affect the meaning of "Pears" and "Hunger"?
Sav [38]

The correct answer is "In both poems, the final stanza sums up the poem's meaning."

In "Pears", the first stanza describes how the speaker's aunties have swelled at the waist and resemble pears, but this swelling is due to the goodness of their lives, making a refuge for a child. Thus, in the second stanza we are told that the sweetest people the speaker knows are those who resemble pears, because of what he or she explained in the first stanza.

In "Hunger", stanzas from 1 to 3 describe the feeling of hunger and how to "cure it" with lots of food. In stanza number 4, the speaker is not feeling good after she or he ate a lot. Finally, the last stanza is the one that sums the poem meaning, telling us that hunger is suppressed by eating (stanzas 1-3) but do not eat too much or you will feel sick (stanza 4), thus summing up the meaning of the whole poem.
