Spender's childhood, based on this poem, was lonely and he spent much of his time frightened of the boys in his neighborhood.
The majority of the poem describes these rough boys who held Spender down. He describes their knees on his arms and the way they mocked his lisp. They threw mud at him and were never nice to him.
The beginning of the poem, however, makes clear that his parents kept him away from these kids. As a child, he was therefore lonely and scared.
Looking back on his childhood, the poet expresses sadness that these boys never showed him kindness. The final line shows that as a boy he would have forgiven them if they only smiled -- which they never did.
In a neat literary twist, Elizabeth's positive qualities are also her negative ones. She is a virtuous woman who is steadfast and true—but these traits also make her a bit of a cold fish. When we first meet her, she's especially cold...and thinks she smells something fishy.<span> She's got good reason to be suspicious and kind of distant, though: her husband has recently had an affair with their housekeeper, Abigail Williams.</span>
Answer:
supervisor and general manager
Explanation:
They mean the same thing
Both "her" and "their" could be used correctly in this case, but i'm presuming they want you to write down "their" if it is a single choice question.
