Read the poem “A Poison Tree” by William Blake. What is the subject of this poem?

I was angry with my friend;
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I waterd it in fears,
Night & morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine.

And into my garden stole,
When the night had veild the pole;
In the morning glad I see;
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

A.

anger

1) As we scroll through our social media feeds each day, most people enjoy videos of adorable animals or stunning photos of natural landscapes. (2) Far from simply brightening our day, engagement with the natural world through social media may actually be helping to save our planet.

(3) Both individuals and organizations increasingly use social media to raise awareness of environmental issues and support conservation research. (4) A research article, news report, or photograph that “goes viral” can reach a global audience in a matter of minutes, connecting interested people with each other and allowing for a nearly immediate exchange of ideas. (5) In 2012, for example, a high school student posted a picture of an unusual lizard he saw in a local park to a nature-focused social network, where other members identified the lizard and noted how far it was from its known habitat. (6) This in turn became useful data for researchers studying these lizards and their changing ecosystem.

(7) The global audience provided by social media can also have a considerable economic impact for environmental causes. (8) Consumer pressure following the viral circulation of photos of turtles and other marine life injured by plastic drinking straws, for example, has led major corporations to seek more environmentally sustainable options. (9) Partly because viral content often makes people get all weepy, social media has also provided powerful fund-raising opportunities. (10) After a video recently circulated showing a rescued chimpanzee who enjoys playing with dolls, online donations to the rescue organization began pouring in. (11) Many social media platforms allow users to set up a donation campaign for an organization they support without any real effort on the part of the organization itself, increasing the benefit of even small donations.

(12) While some may argue that “hashtag activism” and online discussion have little real-world impact on individual behavior or public policy, social media is proving to be an increasingly powerful tool to draw attention—and resources—to conservation efforts. The writer wants to support the main argument of the second paragraph (sentences 3-6) by adding information from another reliable source.

Each of the following sources would achieve this purpose EXCEPT

A
a report from a major wildlife conservation organization that shows a significant increase in the number of its social media followers who engaged with the organization’s online content

B
a blog post on a university environmental club’s Web site about how the club used social media to organize an awareness event with partners in eleven countries

C
an article published in a scholarly journal that details how a research team used social media to recruit volunteers to assist with data collection on bird habitats

D
a newspaper article about a community garden club that distributed several thousand pollinator-friendly seed packets after a video of the club members singing about bees went viral

E
a video from a marketing research firm that promotes services offered to environmental groups, such as developing brand images that will increase their social media presence

too little to eat and sometimes there was too much. Sometimes the hot things were not hot enough and sometimes the cold
