Answer:

She wants to <u>explain her reasons for writing a memoir.</u>

Explanation:

<em>A Girl named Zippy: Growing Up Small in Mooreland, Indiana</em> is a memoir of the narrator/ author Haven Kimmel. She used this book to describe the childhood life that she and her family had in the small town of Mooreland, and also as a means to make people aware of the unknown town.

The author included the prologue to provide a sort of introduction of her home and the place, which most people seem to be unaware of. She recounts how her sister has <em>"assumed that the book on Mooreland had yet to be written because no one sane would be interested in reading it"</em>. Then, she also stated her own belief that <em>"there was so much more to the town than its trappings"</em>, which is in a sense why she decided to write the book.

Read the poem "Heat" by H.D. in Explorations in Literature.
MrRa [10]

The first answer is correct: "They suggest that the heat is stifling, giving the poem an oppressive mood".

The author begins the poem with the sentence cited above. The use of the expression "rend open" plus the use of the imperative mode, suggest some sort of desperation caused by the heat. That is why the author prays for wind (an unbeatable natural force) to come and defeat heat, ending the suffering.
