Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from "Poetry" by Marianne Moore) -----> the feeling that a person or an object is worthless

...One must make a distinction however: when dragged into prominence by half poets, the result is not poetry, nor till the poets among us can be "literalists of the imagination" - above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, "imaginary gardens with real toads in them," shall we have it... (from Poetry" by Marianne Moore) ------> rude and disrespectful behavior

The jar was round upon the ground And tall and of a port in air. (from "Anecdote of the jar" by Wallace Stevens) ------> an opening for the passage of steam or liquid

How has bud's ability to cope with a new environment changed since spending the night in amoses shed?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Bud's ability has changed for the better, contributing greatly to his courage to go looking for his father.

Explanation:

When Bud went to live with the Amoses, he was very afraid to impose himself, to defend himself and to be faithful to his own wishes. In this case, he behaved with great passivity, which contributed to the Amoses being extremely abusive towards him and promoting a completely inhospitable and unpleasant environment. This allowed Bud to understand, that acting the way others wanted did not protect him from anything, but left him in a disadvantageous position and so he decided to impose himself, take courage and face everything that tried to destabilize him.

Read the excerpt adapted from Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce: The wide playgrounds were swarming with boys
frutty [35]

Answer:

D. Gloomy.

Explanation:

James Joyce's "Portrait Of An Artist As A Young Man" follows the life of the protagonist Stephen Dedalus, focusing on his intellectual and religious awakening. At the same time, it also deals with the themes of betrayal, alienation, and finding his identity on his way to becoming the famous person he will be.

As seen in the given passage from the text, we see a young Stephen among other boys on the playground. While the others were playing football, he remained on the sidelines, <em>"out of sight of his captain, out of the reach of the rude feet, pretending to run now and then"</em>. Added to that, the narrator states that the <em>"evening air was pale and chilly"</em>. Through these words, we can know that the <u>scene's mood is gloomy</u>, with no real sense of happiness or excitement in the young Stephen.
