Answer and Explanation:
"Islands and Icebergs" by Ralph Semino Galan is a poem about reading a poem. <u>The speaker asks readers to imagine the paper as being the ocean and the words to be floating on the that ocean. That is a clue as to why he writes three lines per stanza. The length of the lines, along with their number, reminds us of the waves, even the foam, to floats up and down, back and forth, on the ocean. The author wrote three lines per stanza as a way to make the poem itself resemble an ocean, instead of simply asking as to imagine it.</u>

Someone who is from the West and whose parents are from the West.
Explanation:
In Gary Sato's <em>Like Mexicans</em>, he tells the story of how his parents and family want him to marry a girl from his own race and ethnicity. They seemed to emphasize the importance of marrying within the same 'race', which he also tries hard to obey as far as he can.
In the given passage, Gary mentioned his best friend Scott as <em>"a second-generation okie"</em>. And like he mentioned in the beginning of the story, and according to his grandmother, <em>"everyone who wasn't Mexican, black or Asian were Okies"</em>. So, though Okie is a term generally used to refer to a resident of Oklahoma or a native of that place, Sato used this term as a generalized term for anyone from the West and whose parents are from the West.

Answer:
Miyax is thoughtful and cautious, but she is also extremely proactive and ready for any activity that protects her goals.
In "Julie of the Wolves" we have introduced Miyax a character with a lot of depth and complexity.
The author prefers to describe her by her actions and it is through this that we realize that she is a cautious, thoughtful, rational, and intelligent girl. This means that she was a more introspective person and that she preferred to solve any problems that might arise, based on her racism. However, she also shows herself to be a very proactive and dynamic character, who spares no effort to defend herself and her territory, even though physical resources and strength are necessary for this.
