Answer:

The narrative starts with Death, who is personified as a chariot driver. He picks up the speaker from her house and takes her on a pleasant ride in his carriage. They ride past many places, from the schoolyard to the fields full of grains, until they finally reach their destination, the speaker’s grave site.

In the beginning of the poem, it seems as though the speaker is recounting the events of a single day. This day passes quickly in the poem. At the start of her journey with Death, the speaker passes the school full of children enjoying recess. A few lines later, the carriage is passing the “Setting Sun,” indicating that the day is over and night has begun. This detail helps to mark the rapid passage of time. In contrast, the pacing of the narrative is leisurely and unhurried. The point of this contrast between the pacing and the passage of time may be to demonstrate that the speaker has crossed over into immortality. This idea is emphasized again in the final stanza, when the speaker says that centuries have passed since the events of the day she’s describing. The poem can be read as the speaker juxtaposing her journey in regular time (one day) with infinite time, which she attains once she dies.

From the poem "Because I Could Not Stop for Death" by Emily Dickinson...


Answer to the First Question: The speaker describes in the narrative her short trip alongside what she considers to be a male individual - presumably the Death itself -. The speaker presumes the little journey felt like a day to her, but it actually took centuries. The pacing of the narrative goes relatively quick compared to the real time stated by the reader (centuries), given that she mentioned what one would commonly see on a daily routine along the road (i.e. A school, grain fields, and the sunset).


Answer to the Second Question: The speaker means to express how lightly she takes death (Felt like a day) by comparing it with the patience requiered to endure daily life (Centuries to her). In other words, she considers daily life to be a never-ending routine.

This is evidenced by the quote "I surmised the Horses' heads were toward eternity", assuming the horses pulling the carriage would have taken her through the sight of her daily life over and over again.

The poem's subtitle, below, adds to the development of the entire poem mainly by
Karolina [17]

Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:

suggesting that she (the speaker in the poem) prefers hardcover books to paperbacks

setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker

pointing out how difficult it was for the speaker to access books when she was a child

explaining that no one had any idea of what the speaker was going through

Answer:

setting up (preparing to show) how important Mrs. Long would be to the speaker

Explanation:

The poem's subtitle reinforces the importance of the speaker and the experiences she has to tell. This establishes Mrs. Long as a central part of the poem, as it is she who will explain the subtitle, placing the reader in relation to the message emitted by the poem. In this case, we can say that the subtitle is important for the development of the poem, as it prepares Mrs. Long as the speaker, who will narrate the poem.

Why was the battle of Saratoga a turning point in the war
ANTONII [103]
The battle of Saratoga was important for several reasons. First, it was a major victory for the Americans as they captured a large number of British soldiers. Second, it was a morale boost to the Americans who had been losing most of the Battles against the British. Third, it stopped the British army from meeting up with more British forces which were headed to Philadelphia in order to capture the city. Most importantly however, the battle gave the King of France confidence in the ability of the Continental Army, resulting in French military aid to the colonies.

When is it not appropriate to send a message via e-mail?
klemol [59]
I'd say probably when the person you are contacting prefers communicating via call or text or another form of messaging. For almost anything professional or business related, it would be appropriate and acceptable to email.
