Answer:
1. Wes' mother Joy simply wanted her son to attend a private school instead of the public schools. But the segregation suffered by Wes made him lose focus, and his mother decided to send him to a Military school.
2. It was a good investment that Wes' mother made, for the military school made Wes more disciplined and kept him away from the bad influences in his former neighborhood.
Explanation:
The book, The Other Wes Moore tells the story of two personalities named Wes. Wes whose mother was Joy had moved from Jamaica to The United States. She wanted her children to get a quality education.

The private school made her son relate with the rich kids and this made the kids in the neighborhood unhappy with Wes.

Answer:
Dear {Friend Name},
Where do I even begin? I suppose saying “I’m sorry” is a start.
I’m sorry.
Looking back, I can’t believe that I {state offending action}. But I suppose hindsight is always 20/20. It was stupid and I wasn’t the friend that you expected me to be. Even if I explain my actions, it still doesn’t justify that I {said/did} some pretty hurtful things.
I hope you can forgive me for what I did and put this matter behind us. I treasure our friendship and all the things we’ve done and been through. And hopefully, what transpired can become one of those incidents that make our bond stronger than ever.
If you have anything on your mind regarding this, please feel free to share it. I promise to listen before I speak. It’s the least I could do if you’re willing to forgive me. You know how to contact me. I hope you do.
Your friend,
{Name}

I believe it is an Idiom. Are there options to choose from?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
1. English
Edmund Spenser is English. He varied the traditional Shakespearean English sonnet form by changing the rhyme scheme which creates couplet links that connect the quatrains together.
2. abab bcbc cdcd ee
Spenserian sonnets repeat the last rhyme as the first rhyme of the next quatrain. This continuation of a rhyme from quatrain to quatrain ties them together more than previous sonnet forms.
3. lasting love
The poet uses phrases like "endure for ever" and "naught but death can sever" to show how long love can last.
4. metaphor
He is comparing the burning oak to the patience it takes when wooing. He does not use like or as which would indicate a simile. Also, the oak is not being given human traits which is required for personification.
5. knot
He compares the depth of love to a knot so tightly tied and tangled that it cannot be undone.
