Back in 1913, I worked on one of Paul Bunyan’s famous crews. Let me tell you, there are many good tales about the legendary Paul Bunyan, but they don’t tell half the story. He was a giant of a man who could pick up four horses with their load of logs and turn them around on the road. He led crews of us loggers to hew trees and chop them into logs during the days when this country was growing fast.

Feeding Bunyan’s crews of ravenous loggers was a big job. Paul’s cook Big Joe wanted a griddle to cook pancakes. So, Big Ole, the blacksmith, made an immense griddle. The pancake batter was stirred in machines like concrete mixers. It was poured on the griddle with cranes.

One year, everything got buried during the Winter of the Deep Snow. It was quite a predicament. Paul dealt with the challenge by digging down to find the tops of the tall pine trees and lowering his loggers to chop logs. His blue ox, Babe, wore snowshoes to haul the wood to the surface of the snow.

Paul had a cow named Lucy. She had the appetite of a wolf. In the winter of the Deep Snow, the loggers gave Lucy a pair of Babe’s old snowshoes and green goggles. They turned her out to graze in the snow. She learned to run in the snowshoes, and she ran all over North America.

One of Paul’s loggers took a load of logs down the Mississippi River for Paul. When the logs were delivered, they were the wrong logs. Paul had to get them back upstream. Driving logs upstream is impossible, but an impossible job never stopped Paul. He fed Babe salt and took him to the upper Mississippi to drink. Babe drank the river dry, and the logs traveled up the river faster than they had gone down.

Paul could solve problems like no one else I ever knew or you ever heard of. In the Winter of the Blue Snow, Shot Gunderson was in charge of the Big Tadpole River area. He chopped his logs so that they landed in a lake. He planned to move them in the spring. To his surprise, when he tried to move the logs, he discovered the lake had no outlet to the river. He thought the whole winter’s work was lost. But Paul was always clever. He came up with an ingenious idea. He called in Sourdough Sam, a cook who made everything out of sourdough except the coffee. Paul ordered him to mix enough sourdough to fill the big water tank. Then he hitched Babe the Blue Ox to the tank and dumped the sourdough into the lake. Dough rises. As Sam said, it “riz” and pushed the logs over the hills that surrounded the lake. They rolled all the way to the river. Today a lake in Minnesota is named “Sourdough Lake.”

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. ‘you make me feel uncivilized, daisy,’ i confessed on my second glass of corky but rather impressive claret. ‘can’t you talk about crops or something? ’ i meant nothing in particular by this remark but it was taken up in an unexpected way. ‘civilization’s going to pieces,’ broke out tom violently. ‘i’ve gotten to be a terrible pessimist about things. have you read ‘the rise of the coloured empires’ by this man goddard? ’ ‘why, no,’ i answered, rather surprised by his tone. ‘well, it’s a fine book, and everybody ought to read it. the idea is if we don’t look out the white race will be—will be utterly submerged. it’s all scientific stuff; it’s been proved.’ in this passage, tom’s ideas about race relations come off as uncivilized. what literary device is fitzgerald using here?
