Answer:
Paragraph 1
Explanation:
The setting is defined as the description of the time, place, or circumstance in which the event or action took place in the narrative. The first paragraph informs the readers that the characters are 'stuck on the couch' and unable to 'believe the storm' that has come in. They expected themselves to be surfing but this storm has marred their plan. Thus, paragraph 1 informs the readers about the circumstance and the time in which the action is being narrated.
Answer:
I love family traditions. They were very important to me growing up. I remember being very proud to tell my friends that our family always had grandma's stuffing for Thanksgiving, went camping every summer, or had burgers every Saturday. I especially counted on the holidays being the same each year - doing the same things and serving the same foods. It was comforting to me and helped ground me in my place in the world.
As an adult I think back on the things I looked forward to each year, our traditions, with a fondness that helps me remember and appreciate my family - even those who are long gone.But beyond how it makes me or my family feel, why are these seemingly little things we do together regularly as a family important?
Explanation:
In order to analyze a poem, the best choice would be to go stanza by stanza (letter C).
Each stanza uses different symbols, imagery, figurative language, and sound devices necessary for analyzing a poem. Once you have gathered all these important aspects, that would be easy for you to understand the meaning of the whole poem, even the author himself since every piece of writing is connected to the author's life.
Letter A must not be your choice. Ignoring any metaphors would also mean ignoring the figurative language. Metaphors are important since they add beauty to the poem.
It can't also be B. Reading a poem only one time means failing to understand the whole meaning of the poem. Analyzation does not happen in one reading but twice or many times.
It can't be D. You don't need to write your own poem just to analyze a certain poem. Just as you don't need to do the mistakes of others to understand your own life. Simply learn from them and make a difference.
