Ted is analyzing the sonnet “Composed upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802.” As you read the sonnet, notice what the author says about urban and rural settings.

Earth has not anything to show more fair:

Dull would he be of soul who could pass by

A sight so touching in its majesty:

This City now doth, like a garment, wear

The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,

Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie

Open unto the fields, and to the sky;

All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.


Never did sun more beautifully steep

In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;

Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!

The river glideth at his own sweet will:

Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;

And all that mighty heart is lying still!


How does the poem’s form contribute to its meaning?


A. The rhyme scheme emphasizes the beauty and natural elements of the city.

B. The octave creates an image of the city, while the sestet gives the speaker’s awed reaction.

C. The octave introduces the speaker’s opinions about cities, while the sestet contradicts those opinions.

D. The meter, iambic pentameter, mimics the sounds of natural elements while the lines describe an urban scene.

Passage 1:Friends and neighbors, we must save Tall Oaks Arts Center. This place contains so many memories. I remember learning pottery and weaving here, and starring in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs back when I was in second grade. I got to have so many precious experiences, and some of my lifelong friendships were nurtured in this amazing place. We need to do whatever it takes to keep the center open for the next generation.Passage 2:Closing the Tall Oaks Arts Center is the best option for our city. While the center has been a wonderful part of our history, its use has been declining steadily for many years now. With an expanded arts program in our public schools, local kids have been taking arts classes in school instead of at the center, and most classes are now canceled due to low enrollment. Furthermore, the building is now 83 years old, and the inspection board has called for millions of dollars' worth of repairs in order to make it safe.Which statement best compares the ways that the two arguments use appeals?

A.Passage 1 appeals to authority by explaining the speaker's personal experience, while passage 2 appeals to emotion by referring to children.

B.Passage 1 appeals to emotion by using words that have a strong effect, while passage 2 appeals to authority by using bold, uncompromising language.

C.Passage 1 appeals to authority by showing that the speaker is an expert in the arts, while passage 2 appeals to logic by giving statistics.

D.Passage 1 appeals to emotion by telling a personal story and using passionate language, while passage 2 appeals to logic by sharing facts.

Civil Disobedience

Part 1

Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond.

Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.

Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.

It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote “If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.

Read the following excerpt from The First Men in the Moon then answer the question below.

He was quite willing to supply information. Indeed, once he was fairly under way the conversation became a monologue. He talked like a man long pent up, who has had it over with himself again and again. He talked for nearly an hour, and I must confess I found it a pretty stiff bit of listening.

Based on the excerpt, what does the author imply about Mr. Cavor's character?

He feels emotional about his work.
He spends much of his time alone.
He is willing to supply information.
He is a skilled public speaker.

why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

What is the author's tone of this paragraph from "The Gift of the Magi" (Hint: This occurs at the very end of the story when Della and Jim realize that they traded their prized possessions for each other.)?

The magi, as you know, were wise men—wonderfully wise men—who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. Of all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi.
