The Tropics in New York
Claude McKay
Bananas ripe and green, and ginger-root,
Cocoa in pods and alligator pears,°
And tangerines and mangoes and grape fruit,
Fit for the highest prize at parish fairs,
5 Set in the window, bringing memories
Of fruit-trees laden by low-singing rills,
And dewy dawns, and mystical blue skies
In benediction° over nun-like hills.
My eyes grew dim, and I could no more gaze;
10 A wave of longing through my body swept,
And, hungry for the old, familiar ways,
I turned aside and bowed my head and wept.
--------------------------
2. alligator pears: avocados, tropical fruits. All the foods mentioned in this stanza grow in Jamaica, the Caribbean island where the poet was born.
6. rills: streams; brooks.
8. benediction: blessing.
The title of the poem, “The Tropics in New York,” is ironic because —
a.
it is a very unusual title for a poem
b.
sometimes it gets extremely hot in New York
c.
we don’t expect to find the tropics in New York
d.
the weather is a lot nicer in the tropics
Answer:
The title of the poem is ironic because C) we don’t expect to find the tropics in New York.
Explanation:
The title is oxymoron because as we know tropics never grew in New York and never will.

all that apply.
"The bicycle," she wrote, "will inspire women with more courage, self-respect and self-reliance and make the next
generation more vigorous of mind and of body."
In August 1895, a cyclist named Ann Strong caused a stir when she compared the value of a bicycle to that of a
husband in the Minneapolis Tribune.
Politicians, soldiers, business leaders, and even the leading athletes in the new sports of baseball and football
were all men.
Now the bicycle brought a taste of independence to women on a very personal level, and some of them took the
opportunity to express their discontent with old traditions and expectations.
Bicycle manufacturers retooled their factories to build them (automobiles and bicycle repair shops installed

Answer:
A) "The bicycle," she wrote, "will inspire women with more courage, self-respect, and self-reliance and make the next generation more vigorous of mind and of body.”
B) In August 1895, a cyclist named Ann Strong caused a stir when she compared the value of a bicycle to that of a husband in the Minneapolis Tribune.
D) Now the bicycle brought a taste of independence to women on a very personal level, and some of them took the opportunity to express their discontent with old traditions and expectations.
Explanation:
All of these mention values and attributes. The first one states multiply attributes that women are gaining that have never really been looked for in a woman before.
The second one states that "Ann Strong caused a stir when she compared the value of a bicycle to that of a husband". It caused a stir because women usually are supposed to be quiet, and not have opinions, and that was changing.
The fourth one states that the bicycle has brought independence that women never had before. Like the second option, because of this freedom, they start expressing their own opinions.

This revolution was ended by establishing the bill of rights, which established rights that could not be withdrawn from citizens, no matter what the current ruler said. Among these rights were freedom of expression and possession of private property.

The Glorious Revolution showed the American colonists that unjust leader could and should be overthrown.

A. The author's tone would be more difficult to identify.
B. The author's tone would become one of horror and disgust.
C. The author's tone would be less sympathetic, more detached.
Answer:
The answer is C)
Explanation:
I got it right on my test.
If the author changed the word dreadful to long in this sentence, the tone is altered as the author's tone would be less sympathetic, and more detached. Therefore option C is the correct response.
What is unconscious?The mental processes that happen spontaneously, are not accessible to introspection and include thoughts, memories, interests, and motives that make up the unconscious mind.
The unconscious is full of important and distressing information that we need to hide from awareness since it would be too dangerous to fully accept them. The unconscious mind serves as a storage region, a "cauldron" of instinctive desires and impulses that the preconscious area channels and suppresses.
Repressed emotions, obscured memories, routines, ideas, desires, and reactions can all be found in the unconscious. The unconscious mind is a vast reservoir that contains memories and feelings that are too unpleasant, humiliating, shameful, or disturbing to face consciously.

Dear companion of our youth when we were immortal 1
and our happy shouts swung up through the gumtrees,
when we raced go-carts in order to destroy our knees,
when there were always eight of us at home for tea
and eight of us learning to count and read 5
and eight of us crammed into the Fiat for Mass
and eight of us slashing through the long dry grass
and four of you dive-bombing four of us
and all of us playing ‘Red rover, red rover, come over!’
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Stanza one is one long sentence and contains many instances of enjambment. What is the effect of this on the rhythm? How does this contribute to the meaning of the poem?
Dear companion of our youth when we were immortal 1
and our happy shouts swung up through the gumtrees,
when we raced go-carts in order to destroy our knees,
when there were always eight of us at home for tea
and eight of us learning to count and read 5
and eight of us crammed into the Fiat for Mass
and eight of us slashing through the long dry grass
and four of you dive-bombing four of us
and all of us playing ‘Red rover, red rover, come over!’
Answer:
Enjambment slows down the pace as if it were being interrupted and paused briefly. This contributes to the meaning of the poem because it emphasizes the most important terms within the poem, constructing the phrases in such a way that these terms stand out.
Explanation:
The verse of the poem, shown above, presents several enjambement, which is a literary resource, widely used in poetry, which aims to end a verse of the poem in disagreement with the syntax that that verse should have, that is, the verse ends in disagreement with what the grammar establishes for the construction of the sentence. When a poet does this, it means that he is trying to highlight terms that would not be highlighted with grammatically correct writing.
In the poem above, we can see an example of this in the verses "Dear companion of our youth when we were immortal / and our happy shouts swung up through the gumtrees" where the author makes two lines of a sentence that should be a single line. The author did this to highlight the "happy shouts" that would not be highlighted if written with the correct syntax.

The following passage appears in an online article. Paraphrase the information for your research report about DNA
Scientists believe some day farmers will grow plants with black leaves. These leaves would be able to change sunlight into energy. F. Dyson, a genetics expert,
claims. "This would help reduce poverty in rural parts of the world because farmers could grow black plants and sell them at a healthy profit. He also sees a day
when termites will eat rusty metal and trees will produce liquid fuel "The secret lies in DNA says Dyson
Answer:
Dyson believes that altering DNA may change the course of the world. If a specific gene is adjusted in a species, the offspring of said species will change to correlate with the mutation. This eventually transforms the species as a whole into something it originally wasn't at the beginning of its existence.
Explanation:
Caught by a Tree
from Chatterbox 1906
A natural history student was one afternoon, during a prolonged drought, hunting for ferns in a dense wood. Towards evening, it grew suddenly dark, and a few drops of rain gave warning that a storm was coming. At that moment, the student's eye fell upon a big, hollow tree-trunk on the ground.
Striking a match, the man peered within, and saw, as he thought, a convenient place of shelter. With feet foremost and arms pressed closely to his side, he wormed himself into the log.
Presently the rain came down in torrents, and the student congratulated himself on having found so snug a shelter.
Fatigued with his long tramp, he fell asleep. How long he slept he did not know, but by-and-by he was awakened by a sharp pain in his head, and a feeling of cramp in his whole body. The rain was still falling, the darkness was intense. The bodily discomfort was, of course, due to the man's cramped position; the pain in his head was caused by a continual drip of water from above on to his forehead.
He drew his head back out of the way of the drops, and, in spite of his uncomfortable position, actually fell asleep again! But the next time he awoke, the pain in his head was intolerable. It seemed impossible to get out of reach of those maddening drops, and "wherever they fell," says the student, "they seemed like a sharp iron boring into the skull."
But the worst was yet to come. When the poor fellow tried to crawl out of the log, he was unable to do so! The opening by which he had so foolishly entered had been only just large enough to admit his body, and the wood, shrunken by the long drought, had in the rain swelled to such an extent that he was now caught, as he says, "like a rat in a trap."
Throughout the night the wretched victim shrieked, struggled, pushed, kicked, and wriggled in vain. He could not raise his hands to tear at the wood.
Happily, he was discovered the next morning through the good services of a rescue dog, which led a search-party to the spot.
