Read the poem.
A March in the Ranks Hard-Prest, and the Road Unknown
from Drum-Taps
by Walt Whitman
A march in the ranks hard-prest, and the road unknown,
A route through a heavy wood with muffled steps in the darkness,
Our army foil’d with loss severe, and the sullen remnant retreating,
Till after midnight glimmer upon us the lights of a dim-lighted
building,
We come to an open space in the woods, and halt by the
dim-lighted building,
‘Tis a large old church at the crossing roads, now an impromptu
hospital,
Entering but for a minute I see a sight beyond all the pictures and
poems ever made,
Shadows of deepest, deepest black, just lit by moving candles
and lamps,
And by one great pitchy torch stationary with wild red flame and
clouds of smoke,
By these, crowds, groups of forms vaguely I see on the floor, some
in the pews laid down,
At my feet more distinctly a soldier, a mere lad, in danger of
bleeding to death, (he is shot in the abdomen,)
I stanch the blood temporarily, (the youngster’s face is white as a lily,)
Then before I depart I sweep my eyes o’er the scene fain to absorb it all,
Faces, varieties, postures beyond description, most in obscurity,
some of them dead,
Surgeons operating, attendants holding lights, the smell of ether,
the odor of blood,
The crowd, O the crowd of the bloody forms, the yard outside
also fill’d,
Some on the bare ground, some on planks or stretchers, some in the
death-spasm sweating,
An occasional scream or cry, the doctor’s shouted orders or calls,
The glisten of the little steel instruments catching the glint of
the torches,
These I resume as I chant, I see again the forms, I smell the odor,
Then hear outside the orders given, Fall in, my men, fall in;
But first I bend to the dying lad, his eyes open, a half-smile gives he me,
Then the eyes close, calmly close, and I speed forth to the darkness,
Resuming, marching, ever in darkness marching, on in the ranks,
The unknown road still marching.
In “A March in the Ranks Hard-Prest, and the Road Unknown,” readers can infer the speaker is shocked by the scene he encounters when his troop stops at the church.
Which lines from the poem support this inference?
“Entering but for a minute I see a sight beyond all the pictures and poems ever made,”
“We come to an open space in the woods, and halt by the dim-lighted building,”
“Till after midnight glimmer upon us the lights of a dim-lighted building,”
“‘Tis a large old church at the crossing roads, now an impromptu hospital,”

Which of the following excerpts from "The Neglected Senses" BEST
illustrates the typical first-person point of view used by memoir writers?
A. I was surprised by the ease and harmony the blind students had
with their physical realm and was eager enough to understand it that at
Sabriye's suggestion I agreed to let myself be blindfolded and led
through the streets of Lhasa by two blind teenage girls, Choden and
Yangchen.
B. Choden, a year younger that Yangchen, was pink-cheeked and ever
smiling. She too wore a ponytail, plaid flannel shirt, denim jacket and
pants, baseball cap, and hiking boots.
C. Yangchen, the older of the two, interjected nervously, "Cane? Well,
no. Maybe no cane. Choden must have her own cane. Otherwise she
can lose the road."
D. All the blind students spoke this way--"We are watching you. Nice to
see you. See you again. Please let me see that book." For them, the
vocabulary of vision was metaphorical, a symbolic representation of
human connection, interest, and concern.
Answers
I was surprised by the ease and harmony the blind students had with their physical realm and was eager enough to understand it that at Sabriye's suggestion. Thus option A is correct.
What is an excerpt?An excerpt is a section or section chosen out of a textbook, talk, play, etc., and studied as such. The excerpt's goal is to highlight important sections of a text in order to determine whether it has the details visitors need.
In The Neglected Senses it was accepted allowed to be taken through the alleyways of Lhasa while wearing a disguise by two blind adolescent girls.
They were named Choden as well as Yangchen at Sabriye's recommendation. The blind kids' comfort and synchronization with their physical setting startled. Therefore, option A is the correct option.

Was Sandra Cisneros' choice of color a cultural declaration or a political provocation? Or Both?
Answers
Answer: A cultural declaration
Explanation:
The question most likely refers to the article "The Purple Passion of Sandra Cisneros," by Kathy Lowry, whose perspective of Cisneros´ actions is condemnatory and described as an uncalled-for political provocation disguised as a cultural declaration.
Looking into the case, and researching on Cisneros´own account of the events, found in "My Purple House. Color is a Language and a History," it becomes clear that she was trying to make a point about how the houses of the Latin community have been disregarded by the San Antonio Conservation Society, and her choice of a color deemed as “too vivid and modern” for its historical context is an example of how her culture is being erased.
So, in my opinion, Cisneros´choice of color was a cultural declaration and not merely a stubborn political provocation.

Knowing when you will use "a" or "an" is very simple and you will only need to look at the first letter of the word that is written after these articles.

What is the main difference between Sandburg’s "Fog" and Frost’s "Mending Wall"? "Fog" uses everyday language, while "Mending Wall" does not. "Fog" uses metaphor, while "Mending Wall" does not. "Mending Wall" is in a modern format, while "Fog" is not. "Mending Wall" is in free verse, while "Fog" is not.
Answers
Answer:
"Fog" uses metaphor, while "Mending Wall" does not.
Explanation:
In Carl Sandburg's "Fog", the speaker uses metaphor when talking about the fog. Sandburg describes the fog as "looking over harbor and city" and then moving on.
On the other hand, Robert Frost's poem "Mending Wall" does not use metaphor. Instead, Frost focuses on the theme of the relationship between the neighbors.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
