Which lines or phrases from this excerpt of her poem "Poetry" does Marianne Moore use to show the impact of great poetry? (I put

the options in parenthesis.) There's more than one answer.
I, too, dislike it: (there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle.)
(Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one
discovers in
it after all, a place for the genuine.)
(Hands that can grasp,) (eyes
that can dilate,) (hair that can rise if it must),
(these things are important not because a)

(high-sounding interpretation can be put upon them but because
they are
useful. . .)

Answer:

I'd say that the lines or phrases from this excerpt of <em>Poetry</em> that Marianne Moore uses to show the impact of great poetry are:

  1. <em>Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one  / discovers in  /it after all, a place for the genuine.</em>
  2. <em>these things are important not because a</em>
  3. <em>high-sounding interpretation can be put upon them but because  / they are  useful. . .</em>

Explanation:

I chose these three options because in those lines the author expresses that, for her, readers can take good and important concepts from reading poetry, she thinks that it has a perfect contempt to discover genuinity and that that content poetry has is very useful for life. <em>She thinks poetry make readers grow and that is a place where to feel comfortable, a place where to find yourselves and feel represented</em>. <u>All these ideas are the ones that come from reading these three lines and that is why I chose those options.</u>

The Kite Runner<br> Amir believes Baba hates him because amir did what to his mother?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Amir's birth led to the death of his mother.

Explanation:

Khaled Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" is the story of Amir, a boy from Afghanistan who, more than 26 years later, recounts his childhood years. It also revolves around the theme of identity, belonging and the effects f the numerous traumatic events that he experienced.

Amir's relationship with his father is not the good and he also admitted to being the cause of it. For, Amir's mother had died while giving birth to Amir. Baba blamed him for taking away the life of his wife, even though she gave him a son too. He even stated in Chapter III "<em>I always felt like Baba hated me a little. And why not? After all, I had killed his beloved wife, his beautiful princess, hadn’t I?</em>" Thus, Amir believed that Baba hated him for the death of his mother.
