The Snow-Storm by Ralph Waldo Emerson Announced by all the trumpets of the sky, Arrives the snow, and, driving o'er the fields,

Seems nowhere to alight: the whited air Hides hills and woods, the river, and the heaven, And veils the farm-house at the garden's end. The sled and traveler stopped, the courier's feet Delayed, all friends shut out, the housemates sit Around the radiant fireplace, enclosed In a tumultuous privacy of storm. Come see the north wind's masonry. Out of an unseen quarry evermore Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer Curves his white bastions with projected roof Round every windward stake, or tree, or door. Speeding, the myriad-handed, his wild work So fanciful, so savage, nought cares he For number or proportion. Mockingly, On coop or kennel he hangs Parian wreaths; A swan-like form invests the hidden thorn; Fills up the farmer's lane from wall to wall, Maugre the farmer's sighs; and, at the gate, A tapering turret overtops the work. And when his hours are numbered, and the world Is all his own, retiring, as he were not, Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone, Built in an age, the mad wind's night-work, The frolic architecture of the snow. Question 1 Part A What inference can be drawn from "The Snow-Storm"? The wild changes brought by a snowstorm are brief, and human works are easily rebuilt. The wild changes brought about by a snowstorm are all a welcome change of pace. The snowstorm is a force of nature people simply cannot control. The snowstorm is a welcome event for many people, as they sit inside by a fire. Question 2 Part B Which evidence from the text best supports the answer in Part A? "Delayed, all friends shut out, the housemates sit Around the radiant fireplace, enclosed In a tumultuous privacy of storm." "And when his hours are numbered, and the world Is all his own, retiring, as he were not, Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone." "So fanciful, so savage, nought cares he For number or proportion. Mockingly; . . . Fills up the farmer’s lane from wall to wall, Maugre the farmer sighs;" "Come see the north wind’s masonry. Out of an unseen quarry evermore Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer Curves his white bastions with projected roof​

Answer:

The inference that can be drawn from the poem is:

C. The snowstorm is a force of nature people simply cannot control.

The evidence that best supports the answer above is:

C. "So fanciful, so savage, nought cares he For number or proportion. Mockingly; . . . Fills up the farmer’s lane from wall to wall, Maugre the farmer sighs;"

Explanation:

In Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem, the snowstorm does not care if people have plans or itineraries. It is such a tremendous force that people can do nothing but wait patiently for it to pass. Uncontrollable and savage, the snowstorm will force farmers and travelers to delay their work and designs. In some cases, it may be a welcome change, but that is not what the poem focuses on. It is not just about the people who get to sit inside and enjoy the fire's warmth. It is about not having control over nature, not being able to make the storm go away faster.

In order to complete the dialogues between Connie and John and between Erica and Manuel, we must take the context into consideration.

The answers to the first dialogue are:

  • What’s on your mind?
  • Yeah, right! One year is long?

The answer to the second dialogue are:

  • That’s good. Now what should we do?
  • I think I’m going to make the chicken salad

<h3>What is a dialogue?</h3>

A dialogue is a conversation that takes place between two or more people. For this question, we must choose among the answer choices provided which ones best fit the blanks, so that the dialogues make sense.

In order to choose the best answers, we must take the context of each dialogue into consideration. That means we must read the whole dialogue to find clues as to what is going on:

  • In the first dialogue, John clearly does not think Connie should buy a new parka. She thinks it is absurd to wear something from last year, but he does not.
  • In the second dialogue, Manuel clearly says something that leads Erica to talk about the menus. He also mentions chicken all of a sudden, which means Erica must say something related to chicken as well.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the correct answers to complete the dialogues are the following:

  • What’s on your mind? (first dialogue)
  • Yeah, right! One year is long? (first dialogue)
  • That’s good. Now what should we do? (second dialogue)
  • I think I’m going to make the chicken salad (second dialogue)
