At first, Miri keeps getting into trouble for talking back, even costing the other girls a visit home when she talks back to Tutor Olana (which makes everyone hate her). The only person who seems willing to talk to Miri is Britta, a girl who just moved to Mount Eskel from the lowlands (after her parents died) and is shunned by the other girls because they assume that she thinks she's better than them.
After some time though, Miri starts to excel at her lessons. She finds that she loves to read and spends all of her free time in the classroom going through Tutor Olana's books and reading about the history of Danland. She also starts to figure out how to use quarry-speech—the way that villagers communicate with each other silently when they're working in the quarries.
She often hears the other girls—especially an older girl named Katar—talking about how annoying she is, but Miri ignores them and continues to excel in her lessons. When it comes time for spring holiday, Tutor Olana springs an exam on the girls and says that only the girls who pass will be able to go home. Miri and Katar pass, but Miri thinks that it's unfair for the other girls to have to stay behind, so she uses quarry-speech to tell them all to run, and they scamper back to the village even though Tutor Olana protests.
My best guess for the answer to this question is that the listener in My Last Duchess interacts with the speaker while the listener in Life in a Love does not. In My Last Duchess, a rich duke is having a conversation with a man about a portrait of his late wife while negotiating a deal to marry a new woman. Life in a Love is about a man's reaction to a woman possibly leaving him. In the first poem, there seems to be a more active conversation going on. I hope this helps. None of the other answers seem as relevant, so I think this is the right one.
Answer:
The book I choose to do is the Weedflower.
Explanation:
The book, Weedflower, is about a 12 year old girl named Sumiko. It takes place before and after Pearl Harbor. Franklin D. Roosevelt signs a bill that allows the army to move all peoples of Japanese ancestry, even if like Sumiko was born in the US. As suspicions grow, Sumiko and her family find themselves being shipped to an internment camp in one of the hottest deserts in the United States. The camp she is moved to is also on a Native American reservation and there she finds that the life she has come to known is now gone. Here, she finds the Native Americans and feels that the Japanese are still unwanted as before they moved here. She meets a young Mohave boy who might just become her first real friend, when he can ever stop being angry about the fact that the internment camp is on his tribe's land. This book tells the truth of how Native Americans and Japanese met through the eyes of a young girl, desperate to fight it, make friends, and find a normal life
