Answer:
Cal and Pop live like hoboes because of the great depression.
Explanation:
Cal and Pop had a farm they worked for and had rural work as their only occupation. However, during the great depression the farm was lost and Carl and Pop had nowhere else to go or what to do and so they decided to wander the trail for years, living like real hoboes, without a home, without a job, without food and without occupations.
Fragile - tenuous: Whatever they were in the mountains, they could be no more. However tenuous their well-being, however much they had suffered and would suffer again, they had found a way out of the wilderness.
Tenuous means fragile or delicate. After the people found their way out of the wilderness, they were most likely fragile from a lack of proper care and nutrition.
Lobby - beg and barter: In order to consummate the ancient sacrifice—to impale the head of a buffalo bull upon the medicine tree—a delegation of old men journeyed into Texas, there to beg and barter for an animal from the Goodnight herd.
The verb lobby means to persuade. In this passage the old men are trying to persuade someone for an animal.
Pensive - brooding: My grandmother was spared the humiliation of those high gray walls by eight or ten years, but she must have known from birth the affliction of defeat, the dark brooding of old warriors.
Pensive means to be deep in thought. Brooding also means to be deep in thought but usually over something that has a negative outcome. The person brooding usually wishes to change what has happened.
Antagonist - Enmities: Some of them painted their faces and carried the scars of old and cherished enmities.
Enmities is another word for something that is hated, just like an enemy. An antagonist goes against a person or thing and is often hated or strongly disliked so this would be the best choice.

Romeo repeats his request for news of Juliet twice because it is the most important question for him. He says that "nothing can be ill, if she be well", meaning that none of the other news is as important.
Balthasar's response suggests that he's trying to make the news easier for Romeo to handle. He uses peaceful imagery like "her immortal part with angels lives" in order to soften the news of her death. He saw Juliet being laid in the monument himself, no one told him the news.
The description of Romeo as pale and wild foreshadows his death, as a corpse would be pale and 'wild' means that he looks like he is about to do harm to someone else or himself.
The problems you see: is where is says “won’t eat nothing accept” when it should be “won’t eat anything accept”
ALSO it should be spelled leaves, not leafs.
