Write 1 - 2 sentences explaining how his mother compares the staircase to life in the poem.




Well, son, I'll tell you:


Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.


It's had tacks in it,


And splinters,


And boards torn up,


And places with no carpet on the floor - Bare.


But all the time I'se been a-climbin' on,


And reachin' landin's,


And turnin' corners,


And sometimes goin' in the dark


Where there ain't been no light.


So boy, don'tyou turn back.


Don't you set down on the steps


'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.


Don't you fall now -


For I'se still goin', honey,


I'se still climbin',


And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.


—"Mother to Son,"

Langston Hughes

Answer:

1. African-American:

“As an African-American whose mother is half-Jamaican, for Thanksgiving my mom usually makes a nice big Turkey, chicken with dressing (which means stuffing), ox tails, pot roast, baked macaroni and cheese, rice and peas, candied yams, potato salad, deviled eggs, collard greens, cabbage, and either lasagna or baked ziti.  For dessert my mom makes 2 sweet potato pies and banana pudding. My immediate family eats at home first and we make a plate for my grandmother and family friends who live close by. Then we go over to my grandma’s house where a lot of my extended family go to spend Thanksgiving and there’s usually similar food at her house.”

2. Korean:

“For thanksgiving, it is only my immediate family which includes me, my two sisters and my parents. We just chill and talk about what’s new because me and my sisters don’t live with my parents anymore. For dinner, we have roast beef ham, mashed potatoes, and a couple different casseroles and for dessert we have pecan pumpkin pie. We also go to bed early for black Friday.”  -Jess W.

3. Jamaican:

“My great aunt makes Thanksgiving dinner, and we eat Jamaican food but with a huge turkey. Usually, my family from Jamaica will come up too, so it’s a lot of people in a really small house. We eat rice and peas, baked macaroni and cheese which is kind of spicy, banana bread, breadfruit, and rum cake. After dinner we rant about American politics and the adults smoke cigarettes and drink wine and then us college kids will usually drink the rest of it.”  -Ellie F.

4. Indian:

“For Thanksgiving, as an Indian and vegetarian, we don’t eat the normal Thanksgiving food. We usually make a big meal with salad, lasagna, etc. We have family come over for lunch and then watch a movie at home or we eat lunch as a family and then go to a get-together at a friend’s house.”  -Janvi J.

6. Puerto Rican

“I live in Puerto Rico, so a Puerto Rican Thanksgiving typically includes rice and beans, turkey seasoned like pork called paction (Pavo means turkey and lechon means pork). We also have morcillas, a type of sausage, and a dessert like flan, coquito, and arroz con leche.​” –Alexis H.

6. Portuguese:

“Both my parents and their families descend from Portugal, with my siblings and I being the first generation to be born in the United States. My parents didn’t really know what Thanksgiving was until after they had arrived to the U.S. and my sister and I brought home stories about this tradition. But they’ve adopted it as their own, making sure that our family is together on that Thursday. We have a turkey with gravy, filled with stuffing. We don’t have cranberry sauce or any sort of pies, but we do have mashed potatoes (and roasted potatoes because those are my favorite). We also have white rice and a salad, which we have at every other meal during the year. This is all followed by some sort of dessert, either a chocolate cake or chocolate chip cookies and some sort of store-bought cookie that my parents want to try. It isn’t much, especially for a holiday that’s always advertised as one where you need to loosen your belt. But for something that my parents adopted from scratch, it’s Thanksgiving to me.” -Diana C.

Answer:

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Karl Marx said that "religion is the opiate of the masses." Knowing this, we can explain the reason why the pigs don't like the stories told by the raven Moses in the following manner:

- The raven Moses in "Animal Farm" represents the organized Church in the Soviet Union. His stories are about "Sugarcandy Mountain," the paradise where no one has to work.

- The pigs do not like the fact that Moses tells such stories because they want the other animals to think of Animal Farm as paradise. If Moses tells them about a better place, their conditions on Animal Farm will seem bad and unfair.
