Written questions:
Number 5: Stanzas 12-13 contribute to the theme of the poem by showing how Casey's pride gets the best of him and he ends up striking out.
Discussion questions:
1. Casey's pride causes him to strike out because he thinks he is going to hit no matter what.
2. Casey attained this power by working hard and being good at baseball. We elevate athletes because we admire their ability and talent in the sport they play just like Casey's fans admire him when the text says, "...It pounded on the mountain and recoiled upon the flat, For Casey, mighty casey, was advancing to the bat."
3. Casey does not utilize this power wisely. His power and fame are corrupt because he is so arrogant to the point where he thinks he controls his fans.
Multiple choice in the pdf below.
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found it online. It is the following:
Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars."
By sending these children away, "you are handing them a death sentence," says José Arnulfo Ochoa Ochoa, an expert in Honduras with World Vision International, a Christian humanitarian aid group. This abrogates international conventions we have signed and undermines our credibility as a humane country. It would be a disgrace if this wealthy nation turned its back on the 52,000 children who have arrived since October, many of them legitimate refugees.
The underlined words and phrases have strong negative connotations. How do they support the author's purpose? [...]
Answer:
They support the author's purpose because:
A. They draw attention to the opinion that the United States is not doing enough to help these children.
Explanation:
<u>Even though the excerpt is missing the underlined words and phrases, there is only one option that has any true connection with what is being said. The excerpt is about how the U.S. has been failing to help children who arrive in the country as refugees. Instead of welcoming them with care and safety, they are often sent away, back to their countries. It is clear that the U.S. is not doing enough for those children. Therefore, the correct option is letter A.</u>
Options B through D can be easily eliminated. This excerpt does not concern other countries' roles in this crisis, international conventions, or the way in which the U.S. will be regarded by other nations.
