Read the poem “Hope Is the Thing with Feathers,” by Emily Dicinson. Hope Is the Thing with Feathers Hope is the thing with feath

ers, That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard, and sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. I’ve heard it in the chillest land and on the strangest sea, Yet, never in extremity, It asked a crumb of me.
can someone please explain the tone and also what figurative language was used

The tone is very bright, hopeful, and optimistic.
Dic_kinson uses various instances of figurative language, mostly personification (portraying hope as a bird) and metaphor.

What is the implicit meaning conveyed by Pearl in the excerpt?
Olegator [25]

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer: Pearl notices that the scarlet letter on her mother's bosom has paved the way for lack of sunshine in her mother´s lie.

Explanation:

The question refers to The Scarlet Letter: A Romance (1850), by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

In the provided excerpt, Pearl notices that the sun seems to dislike her mother because of the scarlet letter on her bosom. Pearls comment about how that doesn´t happen to her because she doesn't have the scarlet letter yet implies that she thinks she will when she grows up to be an adult woman.

This means that she doesn´t think that the scarlet letter is unique to her mother, but something she will also get when she grows up. And she doesn´t admire her mother for it, as she dislikes how the sun runs away from her.

Pearl´s words imply that she, who is usually aware of things that others can´t see, has realized that the lack of sunshine in her mother’s life is caused by the scarlet letter on her bosom.

Which excerpt from the "The Turtle" best expresses the theme that all living things are a part of, and are guided by, a natural
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The excerpt that best expresses the theme that all living things are a part of, and are guided by, a natural purpose is:

<u>She's only filled with an old blind wish. It isn't even hers but came to her</u>

Explanation:

"The Turtle" is a poem by author Mary Oliver. The speaker in the poem talks of the beauty and effortlessness of turtle laying eggs in the sand. It's a sacred action, which the turtle itself cannot understand since the drive to do it does not come consciously. It is a purely instinctive drive, guided by nature. The speaker admires the turtle's determination and patience in completing the task while remaining unaware of itself as an individual. The turtle sees itself as the world, and the world as itself.
