Answer:

OB. helps the speaker remember his words more vividly.

Explanation:

In the given passage, the narrator/ speaker admits how he would never live up to his father's expectations. Moreover, he also believes that his father would never be satisfied with the way he is living his life.

But most of all, he clearly remembers the words of his father- <em>"Waste of time in your prime is a crime, my boy!"</em> which always becomes a reminder of how "aimless" his life is/ felt like. And this echo of words became more like an alarm ringtone. The rhyme of words such as <em>"time, prime, crime" </em>presents a vivid memory in the boy, making it more ingrained in his consciousness.

Thus, the correct answer is that the rhyme helps the speaker remember his father's words more vividly.

What "cage" did Lizabeth realize that her and her childhood companions were trapped in during the Great Depression? How did this
Makovka662 [10]

Answer and Explanation:

What "cage" did Lizabeth realize that her and her childhood companions were trapped in during the Great Depression?

Lizabeth is a character is Eugenia Collier's short story "Marigolds", set during the Great Depression. According to Lizabeth, who is also the narrator of the story, the cage in which she and the other children in story were trapped was poverty.

How did this "cage" limit Lizabeth and her companions, and how did they react to it as children?

<u>Lizabeth says poverty is a cage because it limits her and her companions. They know, unconsciously, that they will never grow out of it, that they will never be anything else other than very poor. However, since they cannot understand that consciously yet, the children and Lizabeth react to that reality with destruction. They channel their inner frustrations, project their anger outwards - more specifically, they destroy Miss Lottie's garden of marigolds.</u>

<em>"I said before that we children were not  consciously aware of how thick were the bars of our  cage. I wonder now, though, whether we were not  more aware of it than I thought. Perhaps we had some  dim notion of what we were, and how little chance we  had of being anything else. Otherwise, why would we  have been so preoccupied with destruction? Anyway,  the pebbles were collected quickly, and everybody  looked at me to begin the fun."</em>

Read John Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question.
Sergio [31]

<em>presents endless possibilities to experience and appreciate .</em> This is the correct option. The author, John Muir , refers to this idea when he says: "....and glorying in God's abounding inexhaustible spiritual beauty bread. ...were welcomed as friends. " The words <em>abounding</em> and <em>inexhaustible </em>refer to endless possibilties. He also uses the phrase <em>spiritual beauty bread</em>. This means that nature can be eaten like bread and the taste of nature can be tasted or appreciated. Plants, storms , thunderstorms and winds in the woods  are in <em>the beauty bread</em>.

These options are not right:

-is filled with countless opportunities to discover rare plants. The writer sets the focus on nature as a whole not just on plants.

-needs to be conquered and controlled by human exploration. The writer enjoys nature ; he is not interested in controlling it.

-offers many unique challenges for the mind, body, and spirit. The writer enjoys nature ; he does not see it as challenging.
