Answer:

1.) The monkey’s paw is an actual monkey’s paw but on this one, a holy person, known as a fakir, put a spell on it so that 3 people can have 3 wishes and see that fate cannot be changed. In paragraph 26 it states, “He wanted to show that fate ruled people’s lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow.” Herbert White thinks the monkey’s paw as a joke. In paragraph 52 Herbert reacts with “pretended horror” and says "Likely. Why, we're going to be rich, and famous and happy. Wish to be an emperor, father, to begin with; then you can't be henpecked." He is saying this to lighten up the mood. In another paragraph Herbert thinks that the monkey’s paw might be of use. In fact, when Mr. White says that he needs nothing, Herbert encourages his father to wish for 200 pounds. In the text it states, “Well, wish for 2 hundred pounds.”  Then he sits down at the piano to strike "a few impressive chords." In conclusion, Herbert’s dialogue expressed his feelings which shows readers what he thinks about the monkey’s paw.

3. In her biography of Plath, Bitter Fame, the poet Anne Stevenson says that this poem
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Stevenson wanted to say that this poem was extremely striking and so profound that it can reach very remote points of the human soul.

I believe that the poem is chilling as a whole and that no part stands out, because all its lines are equally striking.

Explanation:

When Stevenson states that "the furthest reaches of disdain and rage ... bereft of all 'normal human feelings," she means that what she has just read is something very strong and loaded with meaning, capable of touching the reader of grandly. That's because the poem is extremely deep and can reach very remote parts of the soul and trigger feelings so strong and obscure that the beds didn't even know they had them.
