“Where Do We Go from Here?”
from The Crossover
by Kwame Alexander

There are no coaches
at funerals. No practice
to get ready. No warm-up.
There is no last-second shot, and
we all wear its cruel
midnight uniform, starless
and unfriendly.

I am unprepared
for death.
This is a game
I cannot play.
It has no rules,
no referees.
You cannot win.

I listen
to my father’s teammates
tell funny stories
about love
and basketball.
I hear the choir’s comfort songs.
They almost drown out Mom’s sobs.

She will not look in the coffin.
That is not my husband, she says.
Dad is gone,
like the end of a good song.
What remains is bone
and muscle and cold skin.
I grab Mom’s right hand.
JB grabs her left.
The preacher says,
A great father, son, and
husband has crossed
over. Amen.
Outside, a long charcoal limo
pulls up to the curb
to take us
back.

If only.

How does the repetition of the word no and the words cruel, starless, and unfriendly in the first stanza set the tone and meaning of the poem?

Answers

Answer:

Bravery is doing something even when it scares you. Bradbury's setting of the night before the Battle of Shiloh helps him explore this question because at the beggining of the story the main charcter Joby is interested in joining the war as a drummer boy but he doesnt think he can do it. He finds that in the second part of the story the General comforts Joby and asks him to lead the army through the war, learning what bravery is and deciding to be brave.

He never expected to become a dentist so soon after becoming a lawyer, but having both is great (Evergreen).

Even though he is surprised to be both a dentist and a lawyer, he is happy he is both.

Answers

Answer:

The first option is the best answer

Even though he is surprised to be both a dentist and a lawyer, he is happy he is both (Evergreen) which would be an accurate way to paraphrase the following direct quote “I never expected to become a dentist so soon after I got my law degree, but having both is a blessing,” said Lucas Evergreen. The correct option is A.

What is not allowed in paraphrasing?

Taking passages of text from one or more sources, crediting the author/s, but only attempting to make 'cosmetic' changes to the borrowed material, such as shifting one or two words or simply rearranging the order, voice (i.e., active vs. passive), and/or tense of the sentences, is not paraphrasing.

Do not simply rearrange and replace words to create a variation on the original idea. Try explaining the concept in your own words, or in plain language. Avoid using the structure of the original sentence(s), as this can lead to poor paraphrasing.

Thus, the ideal selection is option A.

"The Fall of the House of Usher" - Which of the following best identifies a theme in the text?

A - madness
B - the power of death over life
C - familial betrayal
D - decay of the aristocracy

Answers

Answer:

The answer will be D - decay of the aristocracy.

Explanation:

Madness, as shown in option A, is one of the most recurrent themes in "The Fall of the House of Usher."

We can arrive at this answer because:

"The Fall of the House of Usher" is a short story written by Edgar Alan Poe and tells how Usher's house has become as decadent as his mental state.Usher isolated himself from society, and his mind was very disturbed as a result.He started having fears and irrational thoughts that undermined his rationality.This all made him stop taking care of both the house and himself.

Usher finds himself in a state of pure madness and this greatly undermines the way he lives.

Read the Poem "High Dive" and then answer the prompt that follows.


High Dive


My stomach is communing with my toes

My legs - boiled noodles having no will to support

I force one foot up

then the other.

I hold fiercely to the hand rails

as I climb slowly.

The voices of my fear screech their warnings,

"Don't go! Don't go!"


Pushing my fear behind me, I step onto the board.

It quivers alive - mirroring my quaking legs.

I struggle cautiously to the end;

Cementing my feet, I lean precariously forward

and peer into the depths below.

The twinkling eyes of the ripples catch my frightened stare;

The crystalline nymphs implore me,

"Just fall forward! Stretch out your fingers. We will catch you!"

I almost believe leaning ever nearer

Then - fear grabs me.

"Don't do it! It's too far!"

The voices do battle;

I'm caught in between!


Suddenly a new voice enters the fray.

"If you're gonna jump, jump! You're holding up the line!"

I turn, aware that several bodies block my escape.

I look to the right and see my friends beckoning far beneath me.


I lock my fear away,

Place my arms over my head

and fall forward.


My fingers slice the surface

I plunge into the quiet depths

Hearing the whispers around me

"You did it! You did it!"


I emerge - smiling -

The nymphs victorious

Fear slinks away.


I leave the pool and walk back with gained confidence to where my journey began.



Prompt: The Poem "High Dive" reveals the transformation that the speaker from the beginning of the poem to the end. The change over the course of the poem reveals a greater theme in the poem.


Write a detailed paragraph where you describe the speaker's transformation and how it contributes to the theme. Be sure to include at least two excerpts from the text to support your response.

Answers

The speaker is at first, afraid. They are struggling with their inner self about whether or not to jump. The speaker states that they struggle to the end. As the/she gets a look into the rippling water below, their fear grabs them even more. But soon, he/she states that a voice told them that if they were going to jump, to just jump. After another second of contemplation, the speaker finally overcomes their fear. Their transformation went from a person full of fear at the thought of jumping, to a person empty of that fear who cleared their mind and just did it.

Answer:

Formal Tone- Miguel is writing to the principal to ask for a  change in the policy involving the use of vending  machines during the school day.  

Brody is writing a letter to his boss to  thank her for the birthday present.

Informal Tone- Jessica is writing a note to her little sister to remind her  to pick up her toys before their parents get home.  

Rihanna is writing a letter to her friend to  tell her what she did over summer break.

Explanation:

A formal tone in writing letters or addressing an audience is when the receiver is someone in a higher position than the writer or addressee. This form of letter writing needs a formal tone of communication. So, the first and second sentences or scenarios will be in a formal tone.

On the other hand, the scenarios with Jessica and Rihanna will be in an informal tone. These letters are addressed to family relations or close friends, where there is no need to use formal language. Therefore, the tone of the third and fourth sentences/ scenarios will be in the informal tone.
