In I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, author Maya Angelou’s purpose is to tell about her childhood, while her viewpoint shows how she thinks and feels about her childhood. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is a 1969 autobiography recounting the early years of American writer and poet Maya Angelou.
It is clear that this title had great significance to Angelou, as it was the title of her entire life story. In her autobiography, she talked about the struggle of being a black author and poet. She often felt that her words were not heard because of the color of her skin. She felt that in some ways, she was still experiencing slavery. Although African American people were free people in Angelou’s time, there were still many restrictions on them in society, making it so that many black Americans did not feel free at all.

Summary of “Video Games in the Age of Cell Phones” by Lev Grossman
The article "Video Games in the Age of Cell Phones" by Lev Grossman talks about cell phone games. Especially how they make money and the problems that developers face. Lev Grossman, in his article, talks specifically about a cell phone game called Two Dots and how successful it was. The game was different from the games available at that time which caught people's attention. The game gained a lot of popularity, and the developers could make a reasonable amount of money from it, even though its economic plan was not the best. This leads Grossman to talk about the different ways cell phone games make money; he explains the advantages, disadvantages, and problems that every method has; besides, he talks about how powerful companies rule the market. These big companies do not allow small businesses in this market to grow as it happened in the past. As a result, game developers tend to struggle to make money, create original games, and thrive in an industry ruled by a few and in constant change.

"President Jefferson believed that the future of America lay in the West. Now that so much new
land belonged to the United States, he wanted to have it explored. He hoped to find a
waterway across North America to the Pacific Ocean."
Answer:
Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States between 1801 and 1809. He was a politician who fervently defended expansion to the west, relying on the doctrine of Manifest Destiny, which urged the United States to expand towards the Pacific Ocean. Thus, during his government, he took several measures in this direction: the Louisiana Purchase, which doubled the territory of the United States, expanding it westward, and the Lewis and Clark expedition, which consolidated American sovereignty over these territories.
Precisely, the phrase of the question refers precisely to the Lewis and Clark Expedition, which occurred between 1804 and 1806, by means of which President Jefferson entrusted the explorers to find a river route from the East Coast to the Pacific.

Eleven eyes. When at last he dared to look up, what he noticed was their eyes. Each pair a different color: green as a stormy sea, blue as the sky, black as night, or brown as his own. One man had only one eye, and that one as gray as a cloudy day. The other eye was covered with a patch.
There did not seem to be any tails, horns, or fangs among them. There were some alarmingly hairy faces and plenty of big noses, though!
Six big noses, in fact: one long and hooked, two long and straight, one squashed and wide, one turned up at the end, and another as big and red as a radish.

Act I, Scene II
Capulet’s orchard.
(Enter Romeo)
ROMEO: He jests at scars that never felt a wound.
(Juliet appears above at a window.)
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!
JULIET: Ay me!
ROMEO: She speaks:
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art
As glorious to this night, being o'er my head
As is a winged messenger of heaven
Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes
Of mortals that fall back to gaze on him
When he bestrides the lazy-pacing clouds
And sails upon the bosom of the air.
JULIET: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
ROMEO: (Aside) Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
JULIET: 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
ROMEO: I take thee at thy word:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo
JULIET: What man art thou that thus bescreen'd in night
So stumblest on my counsel?
ROMEO: By a name
I know not how to tell thee who I am:
My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself,
Because it is an enemy to thee;
Had I it written, I would tear the word.
JULIET: My ears have not yet drunk a hundred words
Of that tongue's utterance, yet I know the sound:
Art thou not Romeo and a Montague?
ROMEO: Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike.
JULIET: How camest thou hither, tell me, and wherefore?
The orchard walls are high and hard to climb,
And the place death, considering who thou art,
If any of my kinsmen find thee here.
ROMEO: With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls;
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do that dares love attempt;
Therefore thy kinsmen are no let to me.
JULIET: If they do see thee, they will murder thee.
ROMEO: Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye
Than twenty of their swords: look thou but sweet,
And I am proof against their enmity.
JULIET: I would not for the world they saw thee here.
ROMEO: I have night's cloak to hide me from their sight;
And but thou love me, let them find me here:
My life were better ended by their hate,
Than death prorogued, wanting of thy love.
JULIET: By whose direction found'st thou out this place?
ROMEO: By love, who first did prompt me to inquire;
He lent me counsel and I lent him eyes.
I am no pilot; yet, wert thou as far
As that vast shore wash'd with the farthest sea,
I would adventure for such merchandise.
Answer:
Romeo stands in the shadows beneath Juliet's bedroom window. Juliet appears on the balcony and, thinking she's alone, reveals in a soliloquy her love for Romeo. She despairs over the feud between the two families and the problems the feud presents. Romeo listens, and when Juliet calls on him to "doff" his name, he steps from the darkness saying, "call me but love."
After the two exchange expressions of devotion, the Nurse calls Juliet from the balcony. Juliet leaves, but returns momentarily. They agree to marry. Juliet promises to send a messenger the next day so that Romeo can tell her what wedding arrangements he has made. The scene concludes as day breaks, and Romeo leaves to seek the advice of Friar Laurence.
