20 POINTS!!! Read the following excerpt from the poem "Casabianca": They wrapt the ship in splendor wild, They caught the flag o

n high, And streamed above the gallant child, Like banners in the sky. Then came a burst of thunder-sound—The boy—oh! where was he? Ask of the winds that far around With fragments strewed the sea, With mast, and helm and pennon fair, That well had borne their part But the noblest thing which perished there Was that young faithful heart. In one well-developed paragraph with a topic sentence and supporting details, explain how the language in this excerpt develops the mood.
AND REMEMBER, IT HAS TO BE A [WELL DEVELOPED] PARAGRAPH

Answer:

Hello. So, I'm not going to just do your work for you, sorry, but I can offer a few tips! :)

Explanation:

First, what do you notice about the language. Does the language seem formal or casual, does it seem older or modern? I would say the language in this poem seems medieval and proper. This gives a sort of magical, yet somber mood, because the many descriptive words, like, "splendor," and , "gallant," or, "Perished," and "Strewed." Another thing to think about, is how the old-timey language and words make <em>you </em>feel. Do they make you think, do they make you sad? Etc...

Answer:

B. It shows that Douglass's new awareness of how owners maintain control over slaves allows him to better understand how to improve his situation.

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass was an American African man born into slavery. He later learned to read and write, later gaining his freedom and became a huge abolitionist working for the freedom and rights of his fellow black people. His memoir "Narrative of The life of Frederick Douglass" became one of the foremost important documentation of a slave and in general, the slavery system.

The given excerpt is from when Douglass was a slave in the household of the Aulds. There, Mrs. Sophia Auld being unfamiliar with having a slave was surprisingly good to him. She even taught him how to read and learn the alphabet, Douglass wrote "<em>she very kindly commenced to teach me the A, B, C. After I had learned this, she assisted me in learning to spell words of three or four letters"</em>. But then her husband came to know about it and prevented her from continuing this education, "<em>telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read.</em>"

This is when Douglass realized that education is what a slave needs to get equal with the white masters, admitting that his "<em>youthful understanding had struggled, but struggled in vain</em>". But Mr. Auld's prevention of his education made him more aware of the slave owners' authority over their slaves and it was this moment that he understood what he needed to improve his situation.
