Answer:

Disrespectfulness

Explanation:

<em>In the play the word is used when Keller says, "You be quiet! I’m badgered enough here by females without your impudence." The first trick to identifying a word's definition using context clues is to decide if the word is used in a positive way or a negative way. After reading Keller's statement, we can tell he is frustrated and annoyed, so he is not going to be talking in a positive way. This eliminates the first two options immediately. </em>

In "Auspex," the phrase “dead leaves and snow” at the end of the first stanza implies that the speaker is experiencing feelings
tatiyna

The correct answer is the second one “an absence of love or passion.” In the poem, the general intention of the author is to describe his feelings about the love/passion that it is leaving his life. The sentence “dead leaves and snow”, is the way in which he introduces the absence feeling that he is going through. The birds, as well as the leaves of the tree, are metaphors of love, which are abandoning the tree (his life).

How does Maya Angelou use figurative language to enhance the message of her poem?
makkiz [27]

Answer: no matter what is done to the speaker and to her people, her power is such that "still, like dust, I'll rise." This simile suggests that the speaker is lighter than air, floating upward, above the "lies" of her oppressors. The poem is replete with similes. The speaker compares herself to "moons" and "suns" and describes herself as having "the certainty of tides," all images which suggest constancy and a capacity to stay the course and outlast naysayers. The speaker also uses figurative language to suggest that she behaves as if she is wealthier than she is, knowing that there is an internal, natural wealth inside her. She behaves "like I've got gold mines" and "like I've got oil wells," indicating that the speaker carries herself with the confidence of someone who has valuable natural resources, and knows it.
