Answer:
Explanation:
What could be a worse fate for a modern American female poet than to be lumped into a nebulous, chauvinistic and ever slightly misogynistic pool of cess stereotyped as a “domestic poet.” Anyone unfamiliar with the term coming across it from the first time in reference to a female poet might well believe that domestic poetry is sweetly rhyming verse taking as its subject situations like getting the kids into the van for soccer practice, making cookies for the PTA meeting and, of course, a litany of hatred expressed toward husbands who are never there to help with domestic issues.
Never mind that Robert Frost and Walt Whitman and Wallace Stevens have all at one time or another found a niche within the broadly defined movement or genre of domestic poetry. Which, for the same of brevity, shall be termed poetry dealing with the commonplace of everyday as opposed to epic tales, transcendental unity of man with nature, mysticism, avant-garde experimentation with form over content and various other assorted and sundry types of poems with which the average person cannot relate. Linda Pastan, in other words, writes poems in which she consistently returns to touch upon universal themes dealing with family and relationships and the difficulties of normal existence and the emotional distress of just getting up and living live as it comes.
The tension that always exists between members of a family regardless of the definition or connotation applied to the term “family” has been a great source of inspiration to Pastan from her earliest verse and throughout her development and maturation. By contrast, an equally concentrated examination of the tensions introduced by religious and spiritual expectations has tended to dissipate throughout that process of growing older and becoming more domesticated. In its place Pastan has created a body of work that is far more elegiac and meditative and, it must finally be admitted, less domestic. With the introduction of a more melancholic and reflective poetry that moves into a greater sense of isolation and a solitary contemplation of tactile nature rather than abstract spiritualism, Pastan succeeds in tossing off whatever chains may have been tied around her verse as a result of the unfortunate constriction of trying to pigeonhole her as merely a domestic poet.
Answer:
Hi there, your answer here is C. Skimming is reading key words or reduced numbers of sentences to find the main idea, while scanning is reading to look for specific information. While both techniques use rapid eye movement and key words, they are used to move quickly through a text for slightly different purposes. When you skim a text, you want to find the main idea. When you scan a text, you want to find specific facts.

The correct answer is D. Mood
Explanation:
In literature, including poetry, the mood refers to the atmosphere created by the author or the narrator through the election of words, the setting, the theme, and other literary elements. Additionally, this atmosphere evokes specific feelings, emotions, reactions, and thoughts on the reader. In the case of poems, the mood or atmosphere that evoke certain feelings or emotions is prevalent during all the poem in most cases, but in longer literary works such as novels the mood changes with the actions of the characters and the setting of the story. Examples of mood include words related to feelings such as sad, serious, dark or peaceful. Considering the previous ideas it can be concluded the feeling or emotional quality that a poem evokes or creates on the readers is called "mood".
