The poem I have chosen is Small Dragon by Brian Patten.

The poem appeals to children's imagination to tell them about a dragon that the author has found in the forest. The author depicts the dragon. He says that it feds on many things  like grass, roots of stars, hazel nut and dandelion. Then the author says the dragon made a nest among the coal not unlike a bird but larger. the author says that if you believed in it he would come hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder. In this way he leans on children's innocense to make them believe.

What I liked about this poem is that in a world in which children are treated like adults and they have to worry about life. In a world in which children are forced to work and they have to make a living, there is this dragon that appears in the forest. Thus the author appeals to the innocense of children to make them believe in a wonderful creature, in a wonderful life.  

The quote that I like is

If you believed in it I would come

hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder,

Because that makes me think that there is a dragon, that there is a wonderlful creature in the forest. I just have to believe.

How is the story's theme reflected in the conversation between Hazel and George that concludes the story?
marusya05 [52]
For a second, there seems to be hope when Hazel cries about her son dying. That fleeting moment disappears, and we know this because when George says "you can say that again", she repeats it, misunderstanding his statement because of her average (more like way below average) intellect.

Kurt Vonnegut's goal was not writing a story about courageous people overcoming their weaknesses and defying odds, but how society shuts down those non-conforming, defiant people.

Select the correct answer.
mihalych1998 [28]

The idea discussed in both Tim O'Brien's "Ambush" and John Steinbeck's "Symptoms" is the after effects of the combat on the soldiers after a war is over. It talks about what the soldiers go through, their pain and their turmoil once they come back from having faced a war.

Explain the FBI supervisor's
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

They had no proof whatsoever!

Explanation:

The problem is that, if the american teachers thought they saw that specific painting, and the person who later offered the police officers fruit, and acted surprised, could've hid the painting before the police got here. What the teachers could've done is take a picture and have proof for when the cops did get there. If they didn't have a phone, they should've kept their eye on the painting, someway or another.

HOPE THIS HELPS!! (:
