Read the excerpt from "Mending Wall." Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder If I could put a notion in his head: "Why do they make good neighbours? Isn't it Where there are cows? But here there are no cows. Before I built a wall I'd ask to know What I was walling in or walling out, And to whom I was like to give offence. Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That wants it down." Now read “The Pasture,” also by Robert Frost. I’m going out to clean the pasture spring; I’ll only stop to rake the leaves away (And wait to watch the water clear, I may): I shan’t be gone long.—You come too. I’m going out to fetch the little calf That’s standing by the mother. It’s so young, It totters when she licks it with her tongue. I shan’t be gone long.—You come too. Which best accounts for the different views of spring expressed in the poems? Frost’s opinions changed through time. The poems have different speakers. Frost’s speakers represent his own views. The poems were written at different locations.

Answers

Answer: B) The poems have different speakers.

Explanation: When reading a poem or a text we need to consider that even if it is written in first person (using the pronoun "I") it doesn't mean that the person speaking is the author, it usually is the character that speaks. In the given excerpts, both by Robert Frost, we can see that they have different speakers, by recognizing the different opinions they have about spring. Also the speaker in the first excerpt, doesn't have any animals "But here there are no cows. Before I built a wall I'd ask to know What I was walling in or walling out" and the speaker in the second excerpt has a calf.

The answer that best accounts for the different views of spring expressed in the poems is B. The poems have different speakers.
In the first poem, the speaker is talking about how he wants to build a wall in order to get away from his neighbors and the rest of the world. In the second poem, the speaker is more attuned to nature and speaks about the creatures living in it in harmony.

Which theme would best fit a production of The Tempest in which Prospero is depicted as a high school soccer player?A. The theme of teamwork and leadership
B. The theme of social inequality and injustices
C. The theme of hard work and dedication
D. The theme of cunning and deception

Answers

The correct answer is: A. The theme of teamwork and leadership

Indeed, in Shakespeare’s play Prospero is an individual hero that uses sorcery to protect his daughter Miranda. He does not work cooperatively with other characters and he is opposed by Caliban and a cohort of enemies that includes his brother Antonio. Prospero symbolizes the English Monarch who rules individually over the collective nation.

Depicting him as a high school soccer player only makes him the first among equals which is definitely a break from Shakespeare’s approach.
