I NEED A THREE PARAGRAPH SUMMARY ON WHAT THIS POEM IS ABOUT
There's a place between two stands of trees where the grass grows uphill
and the old revolutionary road breaks off into shadows
near a meetinghouse abandoned by the persecuted
who disappeared into those shadows.
I've walked there picking mushrooms at the edge of dread, but don't be fooled
this isn't a Russian poem, this is not somewhere else but here,
our country moving closer to its own truth and dread,
its own ways of making people disappear.
I won't tell you where the place is, the dark mesh of the woods
meeting the unmarked strip of light—
ghost-ridden crossroads, leaf mold paradise:
I know already who wants to buy it, sell it, make it disappear.
And I won't tell you where it is, so why do I tell you
anything? Because you still listen, because in times like these
to have you listen at all, it's necessary
to talk about trees.

Answer:
The poem, What Kind of times are these symbolizes
what females face, it brings forth feminism and
makes it to where the situation is aware. In the beginning, Rich
paints a lovely scene, but if you think about the clearing
in more depth you will see the dark shady side of it , she goes on to make a point that everyone has a chance
when she writes "where the grass grows, and everyone
flourishes" she brings forth her thoughts on equivalence.
The images of roads and shadows show that everyone is
faced with a choice and it is not always an easy choice,
she also goes to say that persecuted women do not
always go the easy way and when taken the " road less traveled "
your risking fading away. As the story goes on the author starts
speeding up and is encouraging more people to follow her
on the path that she has created and asks not only to follow her
but also trace her defiant ways and to join her internal battle.

A(n) pronoun does not clearly refer to a specific antecedent.
Answer:
a VAGUE pronoun does not clearly refer to a specific antecedent.
Explanation:
A Vague pronoun does not clearly refer to a specific antecedent. Thus the correct option is D.
What is a pronoun?A pronoun is an element of part of speech in English grammar used in place of a noun in any sentence when communicating or highlighting an individual.
A pronoun that is uncertain about a person, organization, or thing is referred to be vague. An imprecise pronoun, then, does not specifically relate to a particular subject.
"That came before" is referred to as an antecedent. A pronoun is used to replace an antecedent or a term that was used earlier in the sentence. A pronoun refers to one or more groupings of words when it is used as an antecedent.
Since it has been deferred to another term, the reader cannot see the true antecedent due to its lack of clarity. Therefore, option D is appropriate.

Read the excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics.
There is a tale, “The Ring of Gyges,” that Feldman sometimes tells his economist friends. It comes from Plato’s Republic. A student named Glaucon offered the story in response to a lesson by Socrates—who, like Adam Smith, argued that people are generally good even without enforcement. Glaucon, like Feldman’s economist friends, disagreed. He told of a shepherd named Gyges who stumbled upon a secret cavern with a corpse inside that wore a ring. When Gyges put on the ring, he found that it made him invisible. With no one able to monitor his behavior, Gyges proceeded to do woeful things—seduce the queen, murder the king, and so on. Glaucon’s story posed a moral question: could any man resist the temptation of evil if he knew his acts could not be witnessed? Glaucon seemed to think the answer was no. But Paul Feldman sides with Socrates and Adam Smith—for he knows the answer, at least 87 percent of the time, is yes.
The example in the excerpt helps the authors arrive at which of the following conclusions?
A.) The majority of people are corrupt.
B.) The majority of people are honest.
C.) Glaucon and Paul Feldman were wrong.

Read the poem "the wife-woman," by anne spencer. maker-of-sevens in the scheme of things from earth to star; thy cycle holds whatever is fate, and over the border the bar. though rank and fierce the mariner sailing the seven seas, he prays, as he holds his glass to his eyes, coaxing the pleiades. i cannot love them; and i feel your glad chiding from the grave, that my all was only worth at all, what joy to you it gave. these seven links the law compelled for the human chain— i cannot love them; and you, oh, seven-fold months in flanders slain! a jungle there, a cave here, bred six and a million years, sure and strong, mate for mate, such love as culture fears; i gave you clear the oil and wine; you saved me your hob and hearth— see how even life may be ere the sickle comes and leaves a swath. but i can wait the seven of moons, or years i spare, hoarding the heart’s plenty, nor spend a drop, nor share— so long but outlives a smile and a silken gown; then gaily i reach up from my shroud, and you, glory-clad, reach down. what is the main similarity between "the wife-woman" and frost’s poem "mending wall"? both use humorous language. both use iambic pentameter. both use blank verse. both use strict meter.
Answer:
C) Both use blank verses.
Explanation:
The main similarity between "The Wife-Woman" by Anne Spencer and "Mending Wall" by Robert Frost is blank poetry. Blank verse is iambic pentameter poetry with 10 syllables per line that alternates stressed and unstressed. Both poems are in blank verse, but their themes, moods, and styles vary.
"The Wife-Woman" and "Mending Wall" both deal with common human feelings like love, grief, and sadness, but "Mending Wall" is more specifically about neighbor relations and wall repair and reconstruction. Frost's poem is more conversational and straightforward than Spencer's, which is more poetic.

C. The author describes the officers as more reluctant to confront him, a white

D. The author claims that he received a much lighter sentence for his crimes
because of his young age and status as a lawyer.
The author shows that the police officers were more reluctant to confront him, a white man in a suit, than when interacting with people of color, as shown in option C.
Why did the author have this perception?Because he realized that African Americans were the biggest victims of the legal system.Because he realized that white people were forgiven for criminal situations that caused black people to be arrested.The author of the text was a white man who worked as an assistant district attorney. He was uncomfortable to see how the justice system treated whites and blacks differently.
For this reason, he decided to provoke small crimes in public places to observe the way he was approached by the police.
He realized that because of his clothing and skin color, the police officers did not approach him as violently and aggressively as they approached young black men.
In this way, he realized how prejudiced and racist the justice system was.
