D)5th stanza

(the poem


I gaze out the tour bus window at an ancient land.

The green fields could tell tales of centuries past.

Snaking rivers have chased their own tails and shed their blue skins

But are here for now.


5 I see a grove of trees sway slightly in the soft wind ahead.

Branches mime silent secrets beyond the window.

Shades of leaves have bloomed and faded and fallen again

But are here for now.


I look at a town of rubble beyond the passing trees.

10 Broken bricks and shattered shingles lie in a crisp grid of ruin.

This ancient village has prospered and faded, now felled by the axe of progress,

But is here for now.


It looks as if trees were planted to obscure the past.
These walls of leaves hide houses in pieces.
15 Someone wants to forget this short breath of history that has come and drifted onward

But is here for now.

Ahead a city gleams, a new horizon on ancient land.

Miles of glass and steel that speak at night with endless light.

A great future has arrived—an immovable age!

20 A permanent page in humanity’s tome of tales!—

But it is really only here for now.

Answer:

I would say the 2nd stanza

Explanation:

The fact that the character is describing the fields as being able to tell tales of the past brings a sense of wonder for what the past held for those fields

Answer:

2nd stanza

Explanation:

What is the archetype seen here?

Read this excerpt from "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi."

"But are you sure that there is anything to be gained by killing the people?” said Nag.

"Everything. When there were no people in the bungalow, did we have any mongoose in the garden? So long as the bungalow is empty, we are king and queen of the garden; and remember that as soon as our eggs in the melon-bed hatch (as they may to-morrow), our children will need room and quiet.”

"I had not thought of that,” said Nag. "I will go, but there is no need that we should hunt for Rikki-tikki afterward. I will kill the big man and his wife, and the child if I can, and come away quietly.”

How does the author use personification to characterize the snakes?

He explains the snakes’ cruel behavior by writing that they want to be “king and queen of the garden.”
He explains how the snakes will care for their children by writing that they have “eggs in the melon-bed.”
He explains the snakes’ evil plan by writing that they will “kill the big man and his wife.”
He explains the snakes’ desire for power by saying that they will “hunt for Rikki-tikki.”

Passage 2
I hoped I could count sheep to make myself fall asleep. My mind's eye
quickly created a green pasture with long flower strewn grass
surrounded by a small wooden fence. Outside the fence, a long line of
sheep waited. My mind pictured them jumping up and over the wooden
rails one by one. Some were black, and some were white. A few had
spots or interesting markings on their wool. Each had a facial
expression that was wise or soothing or happy. But after counting
more than 100 ewes, I realized that my brain was as wide awake as

1 If you go to a doctor’s office today, the doctor will usually know the cause of your illness and how to treat it. That was not true of doctors 200 years ago. No matter what symptoms you had, the treatment would be the same. Doctors did the best they could with what they knew at the time, but their knowledge was limited. The practice of medicine has changed a lot since then, both in understanding what causes diseases and knowing how to treat them.


2 In the 1700s, doctors believed that people’s bodies held four fluids called “humors.” These matched the elements of the natural world: air, water, earth, and fire. The four humors had to be balanced for a person to be healthy. One of these four was blood. Doctors believed that a person who had too much “bad blood” would become sick, and the best way to keep people healthy or to cure a problem was to get rid of the bad blood.


3 For hundreds of years, doctors used bloodletting to treat patients with any number of problems, from fevers to back pain to broken bones. To remove the “bad blood,” a doctor made a small cut in an arm or near a wound. The doctor then collected some amount of blood in a bowl. In most cases, the doctor would continue the bleeding until the patient was close to passing out. People believed this would get rid of the bad blood so that the patient’s body could become balanced again.


4 The practice was so common that most doctors carried bloodletting pouches and kits with them. These kits contained tools for making small cuts, but people who didn’t want to go to the doctor for bloodletting could go to a barber instead. Barbers performed the same procedure on people to help them stay healthy. The emblem for a barber shop was a red and white striped pole. Red represented blood, and white was for the bandages used to stop the bleeding.


5 George Washington died in 1799 from what modern doctors think was a throat infection. Like most people at the time, he believed in bloodletting, and asked to be bled when he became very sick with a sore throat. During his brief illness, doctors drained a lot of blood from his body. They hoped it would cure him, but it did not; Washington died twenty-four hours later. Bloodletting probably did not kill him, but it certainly did not help him recover.


6 In the early 1800s, if a person was injured, a doctor might perform surgery. This could involve cutting off an arm or leg that was badly injured and could not be saved, or removing a bullet or other object from a wound. In those days, more people died from surgery than were saved.


7 One of the reasons so many people died then was that doctors did not know about bacteria. They did not clean the germs from their hands or medical tools between treating patients. Many patients got infections and died, but doctors did not understand the real cause of death.


8 In 1867, British surgeon Joseph Lister determined that carefully cleaning hands, medical equipment, and wounds could greatly reduce the risk of infections, but American doctors were slow to accept his views. It was the treatment of another American president that helped change their minds.


9 In 1881, President James Garfield was shot as he entered a train station. Doctors tried to remove the bullet. However, they did not clean their hands or tools. They tended to him for about ten weeks before he died. Doctors found that he died from an infection rather than from the bullet. That discovery helped bring about some important changes in medicine.


10 Today, doctors know much more than they did in the past and use the best information available. We are lucky that modern medicine is as advanced as it is, and offers so many benefits. Even so, some of their methods may change someday, as scientists make new discoveries.How does paragraph 9 fit into the overall structure of the article?

A.
It shows that studying an error led to progress in medicine.

B.
It shows that doctors did not need to clean their hands or tools.

C.
It tells what happened to President Garfield after he was shot.

D.
It shows that there were no advancements in medicine before 1881.

Part B

B.
“Doctors tried to remove the bullet.”

C.
