Read the following poem, Dreams, by Langston Hughes. Can you identify a metaphor in the poem?

x

Dreams by Langston Hughes

x

Hold fast to dreams

For if dreams die

Life is a broken-winged bird

That cannot fly.

x

Hold fast to dreams

For when dreams go

Life is a barren field

Frozen with snow.

x

The poem contains structurally simple metaphors which follow the formula a is b. These can be found in both stanzas. The first contains this line:
Life is a broken-winged bird
While the second stanza contains the following line:
Life is a barren field

x

1. What is this metaphor referring to in this poem?

2. How do these metaphors work in relation to the poem's title, "Dreams?"

3. How is this description different from saying simply that when dreams are unfulfilled life is difficult?

4. How is it different from saying that a life without dreams is like a broken-winged bird? Would using a simile rather than a metaphor negate or weaken Hughes' poem?

5. What makes this an effective metaphor and why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The metaphor is, "Life is a broken-winged bird"

Answers

Never give up , problably

Answer:

As Manny once said “Boxing is not about your feelings. It’s about performance.”  This basically means that doing great is important but not as important as doing what you set out to do.  He's also said the quote

“It’s just a game. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.” Manny Pacquiano had what was arguably the biggest fight of his life on May 2nd 2015 against Floyd Mayweather. Pacquiano lost.  In the end, it’s a game. Or it’s work. It’s what we do, it’s not who we are.  Who are we? Sons or daughters, fathers or mothers, friends, neighbors, colleagues. Innovators, business people or artists. And we’re on to the next fight in our lives. Also he said “Life is meant to be a challenge, because challenges make you grow.”

Write a story in about 150 words using the outline given below : A railway bridge gives way during heavy rains – a train approaching – a boy sees the train – stands on the track -- ignores the warning whistles – waves his shirts – prevents the accident --- rewarded for his bravery .

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Brian walks to school about one mile from his home in rural Connecticut. He set up for school as usual by 6am hoping to arrive in an hour's time. Brian had walked for about 30 minutes when without warning, heavy rain began to fall. Within minutes, Brian was soaked to the skin. On reaching the railing intersection, he noticed that the railway bridge has given way during the heavy downpour. As he was about crossing, Brian sees the train coming. It took his mind seconds to register that this means a ghastly accident for the oncoming train. Without a second hesitation, Brian stood on the track, ignoring the warning whistles and started waving his shirts. Providence was on his side because the captain of the train sited him from a good distance and started applying the brake. Just a few metres from where he stood, the train halted and the accident was prevented. Brian was rewarded for his bravery .

There has been much debate in our community lately about the
starting time of schools. It is clear from the evidence presented that
the high school needs to have a later starting time. Records show that
70 percent of tardy high school students show up before the end of
first period. Some residents believe that this is due to early morning
doctor appointments, but only eight percent of those students had
medical excuses. They are simply sleeping in. Additionally, parents of
younger children complain that they have to wait until 8:45 to see their
kids off to elementary school.

What is the purpose of pronouns?
1) to streamline our writing and speech
2) to keep from having to repeat a proper noun over and over again
3) to take the place of a common noun only

Answers

answer is the second one
hope it helps :)
Answer:
2. To keep from having to repeat a proper noun over and over again

Explanation:
When we think of pronouns like ‘She’ ‘Him’ ‘Her’, they are used in sentences in place of a regular name. If the proper nouns (which is a persons name) were always used, sentences and paragraphs would run on and not make any sense. That’s why we say “Cindy has a bracelet which she loves very much” and not “Cindy has a bracelet which Cindy loves very much”. If this made sense please let me know!

Read the passage, then answer the question that follows: People who like the idea of a plant that traps, kills, and eats meat love Venus Fly Traps. Despite that terrifying idea, the plants eat only tiny insects.
In the sentence above, what is the purpose of the transition despite?

A. To summarize an idea
B. To show a contrast
C.To show a comparison
D. To introduce an idea

Answers

Answer:

B. To show a contrast

Explanation:

In the given passage, the purpose of the transition despite is to show a contrast.

The first sentence tells us that people who like the idea of a plant that kills its prey and eats mean love venus fly traps. The second sentence tells us that venus fly traps eat only tiny insects. We can see that the content of these sentences is pretty different. Based on the first sentence, we could think that these plants are dangerous, but then, the second one tells us that they are actually harmless (unless you're an insect). The transition despite is used to connect these two sentences and emphasize the contrast.

Read this excerpt from the bachelor's story in "The Story-Teller," in which he is describing the character Bertha: "'Was she pretty?' asked the bigger of the small girls. 'Not as pretty as any of you,' said the bachelor, 'but she was horribly good.' There was a wave of reaction in favour of the story; the word horrible in connection with goodness was a novelty that commended itself. It seemed to introduce a ring of truth that was absent from the aunt’s tales of infant life." What does the phrase "horribly good" imply about Bertha's goodness?A that she is actually bad whenever she has a chance to be B that being pretty is not necessarily part of being good C that some aspect of her "goodness" is not really good D that the three children hearing the story should try to be as good as she is.

Answers

Answer:

B that being pretty is not necessarily part of being good

Explanation:

According to this excerpt from The STORY-TELLER, the narrator describes the character Bertha as being pretty, though not as pretty as either of the girls but "horribly good".
