Answer:

The answers are B and C: The girl does impossible things, and the story has humorous exaggerations.

Explanation:

“How Mighty Kate Stopped the Train” is a tall tale because the main character, Kate, is stronger than real-life people and does impossible things; for example, after Kate was born and the doctor weighed her, she weighed the doctor. In addition, “How Mighty Kate Stopped the Train” is a tall tale because the story has humorous exaggerations and hyperbole; for example, the statement, “When the wind and rain raged so hard that homes shook in fear, trees ran for their lives”, is humorous and a great exaggeration of reality. Typically, a tall tale is a tale or story of characters that are greater or stronger than real life characters; also, tall tales have humorous statements that are exaggerated.

To a mouse poem. How does the poets comparison of mice and humans in the final 2 stanzas contribute to the poems overall meaning

Scilla [17]

Answer:

In the stanzas containing the famous phrase 'of mice and men' Robert Burns, the poet, compares a rat's ability to live in the present to the human's inability.

Explanation:

Robert Burns is one of the defining figures of Romantic thought. this poem compares the state of bliss that animals live in to the unnatural life a human leads due to their excessive thinking and the woes of modern life.

this is evident in the last 2 stanzas of the poem 'to a mouse' when Burns first calls the mouse 'no thy-lane' and then calls it more fortunate because it can blissfully live in the present while a human is doomed to worry about the future and keep thinking about the past.
