Hello. Although you haven't referenced a text, you haven't submitted any questions about them. This makes it impossible for me to provide any answers. However, I will try to help you as best I can by explaining what these references mean.

All references shown can be found in "Life on the Mississippi" written by Mark Twain. In this book, Twain presents his experiences when he was being trained to become a steamboat captain when he was 21 years old. In all the references presented above, we can see how Twain mocked himself and joked about his own intellectual capacity.

When he tries to drive the boat for the first time, he is very impressed, but finds his ability ridiculous.

When he doesn't show up for the first night watch, he starts to mock his ability to be responsible and makes a lot of self-deprecating jokes.

When he finds out that he will need to learn  the entire river, he also makes self-deprecating jokes and scoffs at the whole situation.

It is essential; for teachers to guide students on how to combine sentences to determine the crucial phrases that reused when forming a single sentence from multiple ones.

Basically its saying  photography has become a bit too focused on the past - even if it’s the immediate past. Just take all that talk about, let’s say, how colour photography became an accepted part of art photography (you could also pick the New Topographics<span> or whatever else). And then re-read the quotes…

Being new is not sufficient. 
Popularity right now is not enough. 
Someone liking the poem now is not enough. 

Does a poem conform to the new times? 
Is a poem individual and different? 
These are coexisting requirements for a poem to be valuable. 

>is a work of art that conforms completely really a work of art? 

"Conforming", in the sense of forming the leadership for a new age. 
Yes, conforming is a necessary, but not sufficient requirement for a poem: 
"its fitting in is a test of its value–a test," 

>should contemporary works of art be judged as “better” or “worse” than past ones? 

There is no way that new poems be as bad as old poems, or their canons. 
"certainly not judged by the canons of dead critics."</span>
