Identify the connotative meaning of each word based on the context of the poem. A free bird leaps on the back of the wind and fl

oats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange sun rays and dares to claim the sky. But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing. The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom. The free bird thinks of another breeze and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own. But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing. The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom. –“Caged Bird,” Maya Angelou The connotative meaning of sky is “ .” The connotative meaning of narrow is “ .” The connotative meaning of dreams is “ .” The connotative meaning of shadow is “ .”

<span>The connotative meaning of sky is “limitless." The sky is limitless for a bird who has freedom.

The connotative meaning of narrow is “limited.” The narrow cage is limited/restrictive for a bird who's caged.

The connotative meaning of dreams is “hopes and desires.” Even though caged, the bird still hopes and dreams for his freedom.

In Act I of The Importance of Being Earnest, how do the cucumber sandwiches address elements of Victorian society?
ycow [4]

Explanation:

The victorian era had the division of people into the noble upper class, middle class and the working class.

Algernon's display of cucumber sandwiches was referred to as reckless extravagance in a young person by Jack. But the irony here is that cucumber sandwiches are not even extravagant or reckless to serve at tea. Another is the fact that the lady that the sandwiches were meant for is not even a young person.

We have the hypocrisy of algernon who scolds jack for trying to take a sandwich but yet does so himself. He even ends up eating it all before lady Bracknell arrives. Then he has his servant lie that there were no cucumbers at the market.

The lady's reaction is that of indifference about the sandwiches. A great part of this play explores the consequences of the reckless formalities of society. Jack considered as rash behavior, the formal extravagance of the upper class.
