Read these lines from the poem. They refer to the biblical story of Samson.
Upon the pillars of the temple laid
His desperate hands, and in its overthrow
Destroyed himself, and with him those who made
A cruel mockery of his sightless woe;
The poor, blind Slave, the scoff and jest of all,
Expired, and thousands perished in the fall!
In the Bible, God gives Samson immense physical strength. But Samson is tricked by evil people into losing his strength. The evil people capture Samson, blind him, and make him a slave. Samson asks God to give him strength once more so he can seek revenge on the evil people, and God does. Samson destroys their temple, killing many of them, and killing himself in the process. Longfellow compares the slaves in America to Samson.
How does this allusion affect the tone of the poem?
A. The poem sounds like a religious lecture or sermon, designed to inspire slaves to rise up against their masters.
B. The poem’s tone is stern, comparing slaves to the evil people who captured Samson.
C. The poem sounds like a caution that slavery does not only harm slaves, but may damage the entire country.
D. The poem’s tone is critical of slaves because they do not stand up for themselves the way Samson does.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
slaves should stand up and fight for themselves and what is rightfully theirs meaning their rights
The poem seems like a religious lecture as well as a sermon, which is how the allusion makes slaves feel motivated to rebel against their owners. Thus, option A is appropriate.
An allusion is an instance of speech where an item or incident from a different context is subtly or indirectly referenced. It is typically referred to as a source when the author makes the relationship unambiguous.
A poem may allusively speak of someone, something, or another literary work. Allusions in poetry are typically inferred or indirect, and they are not always cited along with the work or actual event they allude to.
Thus, option A is correct.

Read this passage from “To Build a Fire.” Knowing how the story ends, what literary element or device is the author using in this passage?
When it is seventy-five below zero, a man must not fail in his first attempt to build a fire—that is, if his feet are wet. If his feet are dry, and he fails, he can run along the trail for half a mile and restore his circulation. But the circulation of wet and freezing feet cannot be restored by running when it is seventy-five below. No matter how fast he runs, the wet feet will freeze the harder.
All this the man knew. The old-timer on Sulphur Creek had told him about it the previous fall, and now he was appreciating the advice.
Foreshadowing
Figurative language
Symbolism
Verbal irony
Answer:
Foreshadowing
Explanation:
Foreshadowing is a literary technique whereby an author provides a hint of what is to happen later in the story. At the end of the story, "To Build a Fire," the man who sojourned in the Yukon trail died in the cold. Foreshadowing occurred earlier in the passage when the old-timer on Sulphur Creek gave the advice to travel with a partner. It was as if he knew in advance that the man could die from the cold if circulation was not restored when the temperature was seventy-five below. Unfortunately, when the man was being frozen by the cold, he recalled that advice.
Write an essay using all the notes and giving reasons for your point of view. (140-190 words)
Some people say that young offenders should be sent to an army camp for a while instead of being sent for prison. Is this a good or a bad idea for young offenders?
Write about:
1. Being punished for a crime
2. Learning life skills
3. (your own idea)
In this exercise, you have to write an essay giving your point of view about where young offenders should be sent.
An essay should have an introduction, a body where you state why you think what you think and a conclusion where you give the essay a closure and you reaffirm what you stated before.
In this case, you need to take into account writing about:
1. Being punished for a crime. You need to explain if you think the punishment should be being sent to an army camp or to prison. However, you can even discuss if punishment is okay or if there should be another penalization after a young person commits a crime. Since it is an opinion essay, you can decide what you want to say regarding this specific item.
2. Learning life skills. Here you might want to discuss what place is better to learn life skills or whether they are able to learn any life skills there or not, also, you can discuss how young offenders should learn life skills.
3. You have to write something that has not been said before in the essay about the topic. For example, you can tell your opinion regarding young offenders being in the same place as adult offenders who have been in prison for a long time.
In conclusion, it is up to you what you want to write in the essay but you need to be aware of the essay structure and also writing about what you are being asked.

"Student life is not the proper time to do things. It is the time to ‘prepare’ for things to be done in future."
How does it sound??
Answer:
While I do get what you're trying to say, try rewording your sentences. For example, instead of saying "Student life is not the proper time to do things," you can use this: Being a student means that you can not focus on your interests and study for school assignments at the same time. You are, eventually, going to have to focus on one thing, either your interests, or school. As school keeps students busy with loads of assignments, tests, and exams that students can't find a proper time to do the things they want to do. (see how I used your sentences here?)
Try doing the same for your next sentence, and come back here!
