Incomplete question. The full question read;
In the foyer up four steps a semicircular desk presided To the left side the card catalog On the right newspapers draped over what looked like a quilt rack Magazines face out from the wall —"My First Memory (of Librarians)," Nikki Giovanni. What do the explicit details in this section of the poem describe?
A. the route the speaker took to the library
B. the different people who used the library
C. how the library was arranged
D. how to look up a book in the library
Answer:
C. how the library was arranged
Explanation:
Remember, an<em> explicit detail </em>also refers to a detail that <u>can be plainly observed by a person.</u>
By telling his audience about where the publications were placed, the author directs our attention to the manner in which the library was arranged.
For example, we notice that Nikki Giovanni said that the <em>card catalog was found on the left, </em>and she further mentioned that the newspapers were on the right.
Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the B) MacArthur wants to impress his listeners; Long wants to make them think.
Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the question is asking specifically for the purposes of their respective speeches. It is important to take into account that MacArthur's excerpt is part of an acceptance speech, whereas Long's excerpt is part of a radio address that the politician gave during the Great Depression. MacArthur is praising and commending the military for their work, using, for that purpose, a very poetic and symbolic language ("you are the leaven which binds together...," or "the shadows are lengthening for me. The twilight is here," just to give an example). His is clearly a speech aimed at impressing his listeners. Long, on the contrary, presents a series of facts and he then poses two very straightforward questions, which seem to be directed to those who were running the country at that time. He responds to the first one firmly, but he does not give an answer to the second one, since it is a rethorical question. His speech, therefore, definitely makes you think and reflect upon his words.
