Answer:
The boys went to the park to play basketball, soccer, tennis, and football.
Explanation:
Although the rest of the question is not included, we can still describe what this quote means in the novel. This quote comes from the book <em>The Pearl</em> by John Steinbeck.
In this quote, Kino is describing his wife Juana. Kino has always been obsessed with manhood, and what it means to be a man. Similarly, he wants his wife to be a typical woman. Juana is indeed patient, fragile and submissive. She obeys her husband and fulfills ideals of traditional womanhood. However, she is also very strong. She is resilient, practical and brave. This semi-contradiction shocks Kino, but also allows him to rely on her for support throughout their troubles.
Answer: The sun has a wondrous effect on icy birch branches.
Explanation:
Robert Frost in this excerpt speaks of how birches are affected by ice and then by the environment around them from how the birches are bent by ice to how the icy branches are then affected by the wind, rain and sun.
At the end Robert describes the effect the sun has on the branches and notes how the sun enables the birches to shed to snow in such heaps that one might think a part of heaven has fallen. As heaven is considered so beautiful, it must mean that the effect the sun had was a beautiful and wonderful one.
