Hughes opens and closes the lines with this word. He uses it for times and each of them has its own interpration. Hughes begins his poem with this line:

<em>I </em><em>dream </em><em>a world where a man</em>

The line means that the poem itself is about a dream, some unimaginative reality. After three lines he emphasizes the word again:

<em>I </em><em>dream </em><em>world where all</em>

With this line, Hughes introduces second set of his dream for the active process. The process is about the present that Hughes has not yet given up that he uses present tense. Therefore, the next line starts the next concept:

<em>A world I </em><em>dream </em><em>where black or white</em>

And the last line completes the process by summing up all the wishes:

<em>Of such I </em><em>dream</em><em>, my world. </em>

The word "dream" emphasises the longing which the persona holds that is not quite tangible - the repetition implies this "dream" is reoccurring, showing that the persona's longing is all the more strong.

NeX [460]

Answer:

to clear up confusion about an issue

Explanation:

The likeliest reason the author uses the phrase "a gross exaggeration" in paragraph 1 is that he wants to clear up confusion about an issue.

The word "exaggeration" means making something appear bigger than it actually is, so if the author describes something as being a gross exaggeration, then it means he wants to clear up confusion about an issue.

Dvinal [7]

Answer: The audience for the essay Sojourner is every person that is interested in poetry-like and reflective essays. The purpose is to raise awareness of our roll on this planet, and how we are "the sojourners" in it. Annie Dillard uses metaphors such as comparing mangroves to humans, to convey the message.

Explanation: Annie Dillard speaks to a very general public, her audience is every person that would like to reflect on who we are for the world, and her purpose is to raise awareness on people through metaphors and allegories. She compares, for instance, mangroves to humans, saying that we are "the sojourners" on our planet, being nomads and not belonging anywhere, but she also refers to the planet itself as a sojourner.
