I think Yeats wants his daughter to “think opinions are accursed” so that she doesn’t give in to other people’s thought’s about her. It is so hard to ignore other people’s opinions, but once she sees them as accursed, she won’t worry so much. This might differ if he had a son because boys are often not judged as much, and treated differently than girls. Normally, the negative opinion’s from other’s won't impact their reputation as much as a girl’s would be impacted.

Explanation: not sure if it's right lol and also is this ms pannecouk's hw hahahaha

In the book sounder, Armstrong says: “Each bark bounced from slope to slope in the foothills like a rubber ball.” What does the

Answer:

Sounder tells the story of an African American boy, his family, and their beloved coonhound. As in author William H. Armstrong's book, none of the main charac- ters has a name-except the dog, Sounder.

" 'Sounder and me must be about the same age,' the boy said, tugging gently at one of the coon dog's ears, and then the other," the book tells us as it introduces this canine who is named for his bark that resonates across the countryside when he trees a raccoon or opossum.

Sounder is not a true story, but it is an accurate piece of historical fiction about a black sharecropper's family in the southern area of the United...

The boy hears his father may be in Bartow and later Gilmer counties, but the author does not specify where the boy lives. Sounder won the Newbery Award in 1970 and was made into a major motion picture in 1972.

ExplPatterned after a story told to Armstrong by an older school-teacher, the novel is concerned, in part, with the family's loyal coon dog named Sounder—named for his resonant howl that reverberates across the country-side—whose fate in many ways parallels the life of the narrator's unjustly treated father.
