In this poem, the author describes the "music" that the movement of the black girl brings to our ears. He talks about the way in which the girl's playing makes her braids move, and he describes this musicality by using words such as "symphony","crescendo", and "movement." These words are employed as imagery, and their effect is that they create an image in the mind of the reader. This image contributes to the meaning of the poem by portraying the vivacity and cheerfulness of the girl.

Answer B
Correct. In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author makes the claim that “merriment” (amusement) can be produced only by “a sudden impression,” that is, a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances that claim by using the clause “which is expected” to assert that jests (witty remarks) lacking such an element of surprise (because the audience is expecting them) lose much of their humor and are thus effectively “already destroyed.”
Try to avoid distractions and really pay attention to what you are doing
