Curled at his breast, he sits there while the sun
Stripes the red west
With its last light: the chipmunk
Dives to his rest.
Which statement does not explain how the stanza helps create meaning in the poem?

The image of the chipmunk "dive[ing] to his rest" shows that the chipmunk is sluggish and unmotivated.

The description of the sunset describes the coloration of the chipmunk.
PLS HELP! ASAP!
The line lengths vary, which suggests the chipmunk's movement: quickly running, then stopping and watching for danger.

The last lines explain that the chipmunk hides out from danger once the sun sets, shedding light on his behavior.

Many cities and towns have community gardens--places the city council sets aside for people to rent garden space and plant a few veggies or flowers. The question, though, is whether they are totally useless or not. To evaluate this, it is important to look at how much time and how much money are needed to set the garden up, what it takes to maintain the gardens, and whether people use them and benefit from them. When you look at the big picture, community gardens in most large cities are awesome. However, as someone who visits the community garden in my small town every now and then, let me tell you, it is pricey, dicey, and seedy but not in a good way, a real waste of space.
Usually, city gardens need to be built from scratch. That means cities must buy and haul in all the materials for the garden beds. If these are raised beds. They must buy bricks or lumber. Sometimes organizers of community gardens will get lucky. Someone will donate materials to them. They still must have it moved on-site, though. Also, many community gardens require loads and loads of dirt and fertilizer, plus, an irrigation system. It takes a lot to make a garden from zilch. The costs can far outweigh the benefits in small communities. Larger cities can make this work. They have more options for materials. They also have more people using the completed garden.
The next important thing to look at is how the community keeps up the garden. Often community gardens require their renters to spend a certain amount of time weeding and watering the garden. While this might sound good in theory, my experience is that people rarely follow through. They usually start out doing a bang-up job in the spring during planting time, but then their lives get more and more swamped, so they disregard this commitment. If a city is large enough to have someone on site. Maintenance is not as big of a deal. However, in my small community garden, no one is ever around. In fact, weeds are the reigning “vegetable” growing in our community garden. This makes our town's community garden a waste of time.

The manufacture and use of video games goes back to the 1950s. However, it was only in the 1970s and 1980s that they reached mainstream popularity.

What are two examples of figurative language in these lines? What does each mean?

This rare form, called beryllium-10, is created when
cosmic rays from space hit the rock and split apart larger
atoms of oxygen and nitrogen. You might say that when this
happens, the rock is getting sunburned. As long as the rock
is sitting out in the open, the cosmic rays are hitting it and
beryllium-10 is forming in the outer 2 or so centimeters of
the rock. But while the rock is buried underground—before
running water chews it out of the desert floor—it’s shaded
from cosmic rays, so no beryllium-10 develops.
