Answer:

"the martyred President as the standard bearer to the conscience of his countrymen"

Explanation:

This is the line that best exhibits such connotative language. Connotation refers to a meaning that a word has that is different from its denotation, or dictionary meaning. In this case, the words "martyred," "standard bearer" and "conscience" all imply a high level of respect and admiration for the figure of Abraham Lincoln. The words also imply that the author considers Lincoln an example of everything that is great and good.

What is the central idea of William Blake "the school boy"​
laila [671]

Answer:

The speaker of the poem is a young boy who's at school in the summer. He can't focus in class because he wants so badly to play outside and enjoy the weather; he feels like a songbird trapped in a cage. Towards the poem's end, the boy wonders how children can grow and thrive if they are not allowed to enjoy the summer.

Explanation:

“The School Boy” is a poem included in William Blake’s collection Songs of Innocence. It is told from the perspective of a young boy going to school on a summer day. The boy loves summer mornings, but to have to go to school when the weather is so nice is a misery to him. He sits at his desk in boredom and cannot pay one iota of attention to the lesson, so desperately does he wish to be playing outside. In the fourth verse, the speaker asks, “How can the bird that is born for joy / Sit in a cage and sing?” Here the poet is comparing young children, so full of energy and happiness, to songbirds, who deserve to tumble free and soar on the winds. But, like songbirds trapped in a cage, children trapped in a classroom cannot express themselves, cannot capitalize on all that excess energy, and therefore their potential is being wasted.

The speaker addresses parents in the final two verses, asking how, “…if buds are nipped / …and if the tender plants are stripped / of their joy...How shall…the summer fruits appear?” That is, if children are stripped of their ability to play and have fun in the summer season, how shall they grow and develop to the fullest extent?

This poem is about allowing children to be children – to run and play outside, to experience the benefits of nature and of the seasons. This practice is equally as beneficial to them as academic learning, and in times such as those in the poem, arguably more so, for on this beautiful summer day the speaker can pay no attention to his lessons – he would rather be outside.

From the book: "The Face on the Milk Carton" by Caroline B. Cooney-
disa [49]
Well the one of the most suspicious things in the book is when Jamie sees her own face on the milk carton, hence the title.
Hannah is likely the one who kidnapped Jamie, but with good intentions. Jamie's grandparents weren't at fault.
The clues revealed very little, just that Hannah's conflct with the cult hindered her ability to take care of Jamie.
Conflict was resolved when they found each other again.
Jamie found evidence to every aspect of the alleged kidnapping, including the dress in the picture, which she found in the attic.

Hope this helps!
