Read the poem.
The Whippoorwill

by Madison Julius Cawein


I.


Above lone woodland ways that led

To dells the stealthy twilights tread

The west was hot geranium red;

And still, and still,

Along old lanes the locusts sow

With clustered pearls the Maytimes know,

Deep in the crimson afterglow,

We heard the homeward cattle low,

And then the far-off, far-off woe

Of "whippoorwill!" of "whippoorwill!"


II.


Beneath the idle beechen boughs

We heard the far bells of the cows

Come slowly jangling towards the house;

And still, and still,

Beyond the light that would not die

Out of the scarlet-haunted sky;

Beyond the evening-star's white eye

Of glittering chalcedony,

Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry

Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."


III.


And in the city oft, when swims

The pale moon o'er the smoke that dims

Its disc, I dream of wildwood limbs;

And still, and still,

I seem to hear, where shadows grope

Mid ferns and flowers that dewdrops rope,

Lost in faint deeps of heliotrope

Above the clover-sweetened slope,

Retreat, despairing, past all hope,

The whippoorwill, the whippoorwill.


Whippoorwill - a nocturnal bird with a distinctive call that is suggestive of its name


Question 1

Part A


What is a theme of “The Whippoorwill?



Nature soothes the heart and calms the mind.


There is a balance between nature and the city.


People sometimes long for what they cannot have.


In order to move forward, people must leave the past behind.

Question 2

Part B


How does the theme in Part A develop in the poem?



The city sky is filled with cloudy, gray smoke and it makes the speaker feel sad that the moon is hidden.


The speaker thinks he hears the sound of the whippoorwill while walking in the city.


The speaker recalls his fondest memories of nature while living in the city.


The woeful sound of the whippoorwill echos the despair the speaker feels living in the city.

Read the following excerpt from Henry David Thoreau's "Resistance to Civil Government"

It is truly enough said that a corporation has no conscience, but a corporation of conscientious men is a corporation with a conscience.

Which of these rhetorical devices does Thoreau use here?

Answer:

Parallelism

Explanation:

We can say that Thoreau used the parallelism in the paragraph shown above. That's because he wrote phrases that, in sequence, have equivalent meanings and a grammatical pattern that makes them similar within reading.

                                                                  Lagos.

Dear Vanessa,

I am so happy to write to you at this time. Mom informed me that you just gained admission into my prestigious school. I must tell you that you are in the right place of learning. But I have some few advise and information to give you which will enable you enjoy your learning there and still come out the best.

Firstly, some lecturers can be so frustrating. Therefore, you need to be very smart. Some of them can come into the lecture hall to give impromptu test which they will use as their continuous assessment. So, you must make sure you study very well before going for lectures.

Secondly, beware of bad friends. One thing that is prevalent in that school is the issue of conspiracy. This happens when you move with the wrong company. Move with the right company of friends; those that will help you achieve your dreams.

Finally, do not bury yourself in books alone. Socialize and network with friends and colleagues. Also, remember to take your walk with God very seriously. Attend weekly activities and always have personal time with God.

I will stop here for now and will write to you soon to know your wellbeing.

Patrick, Victor and Praise send their greetings. Take care.

                                                                                                 Yours Truly,

                                                                                                        Chris.  

Explanation:

The letter to my sister is an informal letter. From the above letter written, you will discover that I opened the greeting with her name, "Dear Vanessa". This shows that she is close to me and not a stranger. Also, the body of letter reveals that there is a bond of intimacy between us which makes the writing informal. Then my closing remark also shows that I am writing to a known person.

Answer

The suffix -ity in the word means the state or condition of being sensitive.

Explanation:

The suffix -ity is used to form abstract nouns from adjectives. In the case of "sensitivity", the original adjective was "sensitive". Thus, the suffix -ity in the word means the state or condition of being sensitive. In the specific sentence we are analyzing here, the crowd is showing empathy and responsiveness to what happened to the player by clapping as he limps off the field. They are, thus, displaying sensitivity.
