HELP!!! When I took up my abode in the woods, that is, began to spend my nights as well as days there, which, by accident was on Independence day, or the fourth of July, 1845, my house was not finished for winter, but was merely a defence against the rain, withou plastering
or chimney, the walls being of rough weather-stained boards, with wide chinks, which made it cool at night. The upright white hewn studs and
freshly planed door and window casings gave it a clean and airy look, especially in the morning, when its timbers were saturated with dew, so that I
fancied that by noon some sweet gum would exude from them. To my imagination it retained throughout the day more or less of this auroral
character, reminding me of a certain house on a mountain which I had visited the year before. This was an airy and unplastered cabin, fit to
entertain a travelling god, and where a goddess might trail her garments. The winds which passed over my dwelling were such as sweep over the
ridges of mountains, bearing the broken strains, or celestial parts only, of terrestrial music. The morning wind forever blows, the poem of creation is
uninterrupted; but few are the ears that hear it Olympus is but the outside of the earth every where,
(from Walden by Henry David Thoreau)
Based on the allusion to Olympus, what does the author most likely believe?
O 1. Every person who lives in nature is surrounded by grandeur.
O 2. A home that was built by hand is finer than one that was not.
3.
A lavish home is better suited for gods and goddesses than it is for humans.
4. Living in an incomplete home helps one develop strength against the elements of nature.

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.

In a 10-12 sentence response-style paragraph, explore the degree to which you agree or disagree with faulkner’s message. “i believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. he is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. the poet's, the writer's, duty is to write about these things. it is his privilege to man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. the poet's voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to him endure and prevail” (faulkner 773-775).
