Read the excerpt from “the scarlet ibis.” daddy, mama, and i went back to the dining-room table, but we watched doodle through the open door. he took out a piece of string from his pocket and, without touching the ibis, looped one end around its neck. slowly, while singing softly “shall we gather at the river,” he carried the bird around to the front yard and dug a hole in the flower garden, next to the petunia bed. now we were watching him through the front window, but he didn’t know it. his awkwardness at digging the hole with a shovel whose handle was twice as long as he was made us laugh, and we covered our mouths with our hands so he wouldn’t hear. when doodle came into the dining room, he found us seriously eating our cobbler. he was pale and lingered just inside the screen door. “did you get the scarlet ibis buried? ” asked daddy. doodle didn’t speak but just nodded his head. which example of sensory imagery from the excerpt best shows that doodle is upset about the death of the scarlet ibis?

Read this excerpt from “what i hope to leave behind.” for a number of years it took so much vitality to keep the home going, and that home represented so many different kinds of activities, that none of us had any urge to go outside of this sphere. if “what i hope to leave behind” was the subject of a class discussion, why might paraphrasing this sentence be ? you could analyze the key themes while also staying true to the original language. you could summarize the key ideas, which would shorten the length of the excerpt. you could use your own ideas and concepts, which would add important information. you could rephrase it in your own words, which might clarify the meaning of the excerpt.

Read the passage from a vindication of the rights of woman. that the society is formed in the wisest manner, whose constitution is founded on the nature of man, strikes, in the abstract, every thinking being so forcibly, that it looks like presumption to endeavour to bring forward proofs; though proof must be brought, or the strong hold of prescription will never be forced by reason; yet to urge prescription as an argument to justify the depriving men (or women) of their natural rights, is one of the absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense. does wollstonecraft maintain an objective tone in the passage? yes, because she uses objective language such as “society is formed in the wisest manner.” yes, because she uses objective language such as “it looks like presumption to endeavor.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “though proof must be brought, or the strong hold.” no, because she uses subjective language such as “absurd sophisms which daily insult common sense.”
