Answer:

Restricted movement

Explanation:

In the poem Sympathy by Paul Laurence Dunbar, the image of a bird in a cage suggest restricted freedom.

The caged bird has wings to fly just like every other bird but it couldn't because its movement has been restricted.

Sympathy is a poem by Paul Laurence Dunbar

I know what the caged bird feels, alas!

When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;

When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,

And the river flows like a stream of glass;

When the first bird sings and the first bud opes,

And the faint perfume from its chalice steals—

I know what the caged bird feels!

I know why the caged bird beats his wing

Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;

For he must fly back to his perch and cling

When he fain would be on the bough a-swing;

And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars

And they pulse again with a keener sting—

I know why he beats his wing!

I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,

When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,—

When he beats his bars and he would be free;

It is not a carol of joy or glee,

But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core,

But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings—

I know why the caged bird sings!

Answer:

restricted freedom

Once these disparate parts were held together by a
common enemy, by the fault lines of world wars and the
electrified fence of communism. With the end of the cold
war there was the creeping concern that without a focus for
hatred and distrust, a sense of national identity would
evaporate, that the left side of the hyphen-African-
American, Mexican-American, Irish-American—would
overwhelm the right. And slow-growing domestic traumas
like economic unrest and increasing crime seemed more
likely to emphasize division than community. Today the
citizens of the United States have come together once
more because of armed conflict and enemy attack

Read: I used to like going to have my hair cut. I liked the mirrors in the room and all the smells of the lotions and shampoos. I liked to sit there--young and fresh and pretty--and see what the women were having done, to make themselves look younger and prettier. I liked the way my mother’s hairdresser teased me about boyfriends and dances. Not anymore, though. Somebody held the door open so my mother could wheel me in, and a few people who had met me came around to say how sorry they were.

Tablets are the ultimate shortcut tools: Unlike a mother reading a story to a child, for example, a smartphone-told story spoon-feeds images, words, and pictures all at once to a young reader. Rather than having to take the time to process a mother’s voice into words, visualize complete pictures and exert a mental effort to follow a story line, kids who follow stories on their smartphones get lazy. The device does the thinking for them, and as a result, their own cognitive muscles remain weak.

Read the excerpt from "I'm Not Thirteen Yet" by Amy Bernstein.

After the game, we had an ice cream party in the dining hall to celebrate our victory. I sprinkled my last spoonful of chocolate sprinkles and walked toward a table.

"Hey Jamie," a voice called, "come sit here."

I swore it sounded like Margaret. It turned out it was Margaret, and she wanted me to sit next to her.

"Ok . . . thanks," I said and took a seat, probably with a confused look on my face. "I love the way you arrange your toppings, in perfect order from ice cream to fudge and chocolate sprinkles. You're a great sundae builder," said Margaret. "Look at mine. I can't even keep it together."

This excerpt describes the writer’s significant experience of
