Read "Once I Saw the Mountains Angry," by Stephen Crane.Once I saw mountains angry,And ranged in battle-front.Against them stood a little man;Aye, he was no bigger than my finger.I laughed, and spoke to one near me,"Will he prevail?""Surely," replied this other;"His grandfathers beat them many times."Then did I see much virtue in grandfathers—At least, for the little manWho stood against the mountains.Which best describes the theme of this poem?People are more powerful than elements of nature.People can find strength by understanding past generations.People are arrogant in their belief that they are stronger than nature.People who are resilient are able to act courageously.
Answer:
People can find strength by understanding past generations.
Explanation:
Stephen Crane's poem "Once I Saw The Mountains Angry" is a short poem of 11 lines in one stanza. The speaker of the poem is an unnamed character who is also a part of the poem's story.
In the poem, the speaker reveals how he saw "a little man [who] was no bigger than [his] finger." But despite the man's littleness, that did not hinder him from being strong, for he got the virtue of his grandfathers that helped him. This made the speaker realize that strength can be found by people when they understand and know about past generations.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Answer:
B. People can find strength by understanding past generations.

Read the poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay” by Robert Frost:
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down today.
Nothing gold can stay.
Do you agree with the speaker that nothing ever stays the same? Is change unavoidable, whether you welcome it or not? Find at least two examples from your own life to use in your response.
Answer:
1. Yes, I agree with the speaker that nothing ever stays the same.
2. Yes, change is unavoidable whether it is welcomed or not.
3. Find the examples below.
Explanation:
It is very true that change is the only constant thing in life. I have experienced change in my own life. Two instances of such include;
1. I used to be a timid and shy person who had stage fright. Today, I am more outspoken. This change happened because I consciously worked on my speaking abilities.
2. I dreaded mathematics during high school. I am now good at Math because I devoted time to study to become better at it.
