<em>2. Which of the following words does the author use to describe the objects and people in this poem?</em>

<em>The correct answer is A. slumped, pinched, pouting.</em>

  • <em>“A doll slumped behind the door”: a doll suddenly fell </em>
  • <em>“the pinched armor of a vanished cricket”: a worn cricket armor, that was never used again. In here “vanished” represents the frustration of a sport never played again, represents the good time they lived before.  </em>
  • <em>“before Liza appeared pouting from”: before Liza appeared showing an “I’m-about-to-cry” face. </em>

<em>3. The author uses a lot of words in this poem that have a negative connotation, yet she titles her poem "Daystar." Why?  </em>

<em>The correct answer is C. Because despite the subject's grueling work and sacrifices, she is a "star," or heroine, in the eyes of the author.  </em>

  • <em>Here the title Daystar refers to “A star during the day”, the heroine that saves the day of the human kind, by being a mother, by leaving all the things she really wanted behind. There is no time for thinking when duty calls for this heroin, this heroin that changes diapers. A heroin that changed her palace for “pinched armors” and “ and “floating maple leaves”. </em>
