Margie's calves were cramped and aching as she slowly pedaled to the top of the steep hill. The painful twinges were a reminder

that this
was her first time out on her bike since last October. However, the hill she'd just crested was the toughest part of the ride along Canyon Road, and
her reward would be a long, effortless glide down the other side.
Nearing the bottom of the hill, Margie spotted a puddle right in the middle of her path. With a sense of pure glee that made
her feel like a small child, Margie plowed straight through it, laughing as the muddy water splattered her from head to toe.
Kelly wants to add more vivid and descriptive details to help readers understand what Margie is experiencing.
Which sentence should she add to the blank to most effectively achieve this goal?
1. As Margie moved faster and faster down the shady hillside, she noticed how good the cedars smelled.
2. As Margie rode quickly down the hill, she was aware of the scent of the cedars and the air on her skin.
3. Margie drank in the sharp, green fragrance of the cedars as her bike rocketed down the hill and into the refreshing shade.
4. Margie enjoyed the scent of the cedars as her bike accelerated down the hillside, which was so much shadier than the uphill side.

Both “Silky” Bob in “After Twenty Years” and Tessie in “The Lottery” face threats to their lives or freedom. Compare and contras
Radda [10]

  Bob and Tessie's personas may me considered very different, as Bob seems a person that is very proud of his success and Tessie looks like a simple person, acting unpretentious. Their behavior can be based and figured out by the following paragraphs:

  • In "After Twenty Years"

<em>   “You were successful in the West, weren’t you?” asked the cop.</em>

<em>   “I surely was! I hope Jimmy has done half as well. He was a slow </em>

<em>mover. I’ve had to fight for my success. In New York a man doesn’t </em>

<em>change much. In the West you learn how to fight for what you get.”</em>

  • In "The Lottery"

 "<em>Clean forgot what day it was," she </em>(Tessie) <em>said to Mrs. Delacroix, who stood next to her, and  they both laughed softly. </em>

<em>  "Thought my old man was out back stacking wood," Mrs. Hutchinson went on.   "and then I looked out the window and the kids was gone, and then I remembered it was the twenty-seventh  and came a-running." She dried her hands on her apron, and Mrs. Delacroix said, "You're in time,  though. They're still talking away up there.</em>"

  The difference of Bob and Tessie's situation was that Bob had his freedom threatened, as he was arrested for committing a  crime, but instead of being immediately arrested, he has the opportunity to meet his friend (even if by this time he doesn't know the first police man is his friend) and his friend has mercy on him, calling other man to do the arrest ; Tessie, on the other hand, has been the "winner" of a "death lottery" in which with no crimes or bad attitudes she has been chosen out of luck to a death sentence. Immediately, the city, which at first seem so friendly, has no mercy at all and even her family engage on the stoning.

  Bob feels <u>surprised</u>, as he discovers that his old friend does not look the same person he made the appointment 20 years before; That can be inferred  in these excerpt of the final paragraphs:

<em>   "  </em>The man of the West <u>stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away</u><em>. </em>

<em>    "You're not Jimmy Wells!", </em>he said, "<em>Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a man's nose!" "</em>

   As for Tessie, the feeling she has is the feeling of being<u> wronged</u>, as if the whole lottery has been <u>unjust</u> and she is not supposed to be the one who's the "winner". This feeling starts when her family has been drawn  from the black box of papers:

  <em>"People began to look around to see the Hutchinsons. Bill Hutchinson was standing quiet, staring down at  the paper in his hand. Suddenly. Tessie Hutchinson shouted to Mr. Summers. "You didn't give him time  enough to take any paper he wanted. I saw you. It wasn't fair!"</em> "

  And she continuously feels the situation more unfair as she draws the paper with the black spot and finally prepares herself for the popular stoning.

 

  I hope you may be able to fill in your chart with these informations!

In “Disappointed” by Paul Laurence Dunbar, the story of an old man planting an orchard symbolizes ____.
Tom [10]

The story of the old man planting in the orchard symbolizes life.

<h3>Why is life symbolized in the orchard?</h3>
  • By reading the poem, we can see that the old man decides to plant in the orchard as a way to have good fruit.
  • He is very dedicated to the plantation and tries to do everything to make it successful.
  • However, bad weather conditions destroy everything he worked to achieve.
  • The old man is desolate, but he hears a lost voice asking him to start work again.

Just like the old man's orchard, we need to dedicate ourselves to our life, which will have good times and bad times, where we will have to start over and dedicate ourselves to our goals again.
