Read the first stanza from "The Raven."
Which best describes the scene that the author is
setting through the use of imagery in the stanza?
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak
and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten
lore-
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a
tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber
door.
'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber
door-
Only this and nothing more."
The speaker is up late at night reading and hears a
knocking sound.
The speaker is sleeping and is awakened by
someone calling to him.
The speaker is reading a ghost story and imagines
that he sees a ghost.
The speaker is napping and does not hear a visitor
who taps on the door.

Read the excerpt from ernest hemingway’s “soldier's home.” his father was in the real estate business and always wanted the car to be at his command when he required it to take clients out into the country to show them a piece of farm property. the car always stood outside the first national bank building where his father had an office on the second floor. now, after the war, it was still the same car. nothing was changed in the town except that the young girls had grown up. how does hemingway’s description of the town as unchanged impact the readers’ perception of krebs? it emphasizes that while the town has remained the same, krebs has changed. it illustrates that krebs despises the town he grew up in because it is boring. it demonstrates that krebs views himself as similar to the other soldiers from his town. it reveals that krebs is jealous of those who were able to stay in town and avoid the war.
