Answer:

To convey the teenagers' rebellion against their parents and teachers.

Explanation:

<em>'We Real Cool' by Gwendolyn Brooks illustrates the theme of identity of a group of teenagers, black males. The tone of the poem indicates rebellion and adamant deference of the gang. These are the boys who are unwanted by family and society due to their indecent activities like "lurk late", "strike straight", "thin gin" and "sing sin". </em>The poet also elaborates that they may be true to their own desires unlike the masses yet he calls them pathetic. They celebrate jazz June filled with energy and spirit but which could also be the climax as it leads the premature death of this 'macho gang'(as a consequence to their relentless pursuit of youth and energy)

aksik [14]

The correct answer is D. Protolanguage

Explanation:

In linguistics which is the study of language, a "protolanguage" is a language, which in most cases has not been proven but it is hypothesized, that is attributed to be the language that led to other languages due to evolution in language and historical processes of human societies.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Option number three is correct.

Explanation:

Edgar Guest is an American poet, famous for his optimistic tone. He was also called People's Poet.

A hero is defined as someone who is valuable or appreciated by his achievements or good qualities or by his courage.

In the third option, the speaker contrasts two different groups: first one is described in line 3 of the excerpt ("Are you one...?") and the characteristics of the other group are defined in the other lines (The things that...) and the final line adds emphasis by asking a direct question. The semantic field is also related in the statement and in the excerpt (uncharted, new discoveries, path and undone things, lead, way), making the third option the right answer.
