Hi there, can you just read this. Its for a English competition, can you rate it and tell me about it please.
I heavily pushed the wooden cinnamon colour door open as it screeched on the reeking dusty floor, leaving scraped marks. My blonde hair strands flowed around amid the unfocused lightened landscape, I tightened my toes to the grass, clenched my hair and brushed it out of my face, sighing ecstatically. I waved to my sister and ran off to collect wood. I looked around as animals cluttered around me, getting on with their daily routines. robins chirping, rabbits scurrying, squirrels squeaking and stealing acorns from oak trees, the hedgehog yields a yorn, buttercups, roses, lily pads, “OOOOWWWW ”. I fell...But.. before I helped myself get up, I stopped; My heart dropped to my stomach and my brain tingled as my body seared in anxiety. I felt something coiling around me. His hand reached out. His skin was black. Bleach black as if it was painted, his left eye blue and the other yellow. He pulled me up and asked if I was okay. “ I'm okay, thanks ''. He gave an amiable aura though he gave a diabolical feeling at the same time. “A snake”. He wore gold accessories, ripped black pants and tall. But I saw the exposed lacerated wounded maims that had stained him. He was about to leave but I got a strong grip of his hand. “what's your name? ”. He looked at me bluntly before answering “ kuzan.” The atmosphere got awkward fast especially when I'm still smiling at a statue, frozen to death. “What's up?,are you okay?, are you hurt? Do you need medicine??” he asked. “No, but where are you going?” “Home”. Home? I thought it was only me and Kiji that was living here… “ummm, would you like to come with me?”

I stepped on a blanket formed from velvet blossom petals, which blanketed the sandy ground; a thin branch of blossoms lingering on the tip of my rosie nose, the pink tip bleeding towards the centre to the white. I got disturbed by a noisy crowd. A boy was fighting a tiger but he didn't seem to be doing much, rather just standing there, his boney feet clenched to the ground, indigo black swollen bruises, blood slithering down the side of his face, but he had a menacing expression. The tiger recedes back and forcefully jumps on his petite peachy body, and his body hammers to the ground. Slowly. I wondered why the situation was unattended, inexplicabley, the rare tiger glanced at Kuzan with his tyrannical, malice eyes. “I heard that dense supervisor secretly connived the kid and gave consent to fight the tiger!”. They're gonna make an example of the kid!”. There was another body laying beside him. Blood draining from his ripped hand, eyes bulging out, drooling saliva, and he was laid on a crimson bed of blood, he seemed to be in a desparable blaze of agony. “He's no dead than a stuck pig ” someone mocked. Everyone glared the boy like he was being brusque for not fighting back that tiger. “welcome to Esano?..”

Thankuooo>"

Read the excerpt from The Giver and answer the questions that follows.
Jonas, nearing his home now, smiled at the recollection. Thinking, still, as he wheeled his bike into its
narrow port beside the door, he realized that frightened was the wrong word to describe his feelings, now
that December was almost here. It was too strong an adjective.
He had waited a long time for this special December. Now that it was almost upon him, he wasn't frightened,
but he was... eager, he decided. He was eager for it to come. And he was excited, certainly. All of the
Elevens were excited about the event that would be coming so soon.
What is the meaning of eager as it is used in the excerpt?
distracted by another thought
o careful about approaching something
O looking forward to something
o worried about the future

Birches
BY ROBERT FROST
When I see birches bend to left and right
Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
I like to think some boy's been swinging them.
But swinging doesn't bend them down to stay
As ice-storms do. Often you must have seen them
Loaded with ice a sunny winter morning
After a rain. They click upon themselves
As the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
As the stir cracks and crazes their enamel.
Soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells
Shattering and avalanching on the snow-crust—
Such heaps of broken glass to sweep away
You'd think the inner dome of heaven had fallen.
They are dragged to the withered bracken by the load,
And they seem not to break; though once they are bowed
So low for long, they never right themselves:
You may see their trunks arching in the woods
Years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
Like girls on hands and knees that throw their hair
Before them over their heads to dry in the sun.
But I was going to say when Truth broke in
With all her matter-of-fact about the ice-storm
I should prefer to have some boy bend them
As he went out and in to fetch the cows—
Some boy too far from town to learn baseball,
Whose only play was what he found himself,
Summer or winter, and could play alone.
One by one he subdued his father's trees
By riding them down over and over again
Until he took the stiffness out of them,
And not one but hung limp, not one was left
For him to conquer. He learned all there was
To learn about not launching out too soon
And so not carrying the tree away
Clear to the ground. He always kept his poise
To the top branches, climbing carefully
With the same pains you use to fill a cup
Up to the brim, and even above the brim.
Then he flung outward, feet first, with a swish,
Kicking his way down through the air to the ground.
So was I once myself a swinger of birches.
And so I dream of going back to be.
It's when I'm weary of considerations,
And life is too much like a pathless wood
Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs
Broken across it, and one eye is weeping
From a twig's having lashed across it open.
I'd like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
May no fate willfully misunderstand me
And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
Not to return. Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree,
And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
But dipped its top and set me down again.
That would be good both going and coming back.
One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.

1. What does the speaker want to think has caused the birches to bend? What really caused them to bend? Why might the speaker want to believe in the first cause?

2. To what does the speaker compare the ice that falls from the birches? To what does he compare their trunks and leaves? What can you infer about the speaker's regarding the birches? What might the speaker mean when he say that "One could do worse than be a swinger of birches?

3. In this poem, Frost compares life to a pathless wood. Do you think this is an appropriate simile for life? Why or Why not? To what might you compare life?

4. This poem includes examples of onomatopoeia. How, in your opinion, does onomatopoeia contribute to the impact of the poem?

OB He acknowledges that this is one of several potential
adverse consequences, but insists that history
