Last week, the drama club at Kennedy High School put on an original play titled North to Freedom. This noteworthy production focuses on a young woman's odyssey from slavery to freedom by way of the Underground Railroad.

2North to Freedom is the story of Millie, a slave who resides near the swamps of the Deep South. The play commences in her destitute family's shack on the Jackson Plantation. Despite their atrocious living conditions, Millie and her family manage to find love and joy in the darkest of times. At dinner, Millie's father divulges his plans to use the Underground Railroad to reach the Canadian border. In Canada, he hopes to find employment and save enough funds to buy his family’s freedom—he plans to leave the following evening.

3The family's strategy changes, however, when Millie brazenly disobeys her arrogant mistress. Millie accosts Mrs. Jackson when the woman insults Millie's father. After hearing Millie's story, the family decides that Millie—not her father—will utilize the Underground Railroad in order to escape punishment.

4This poignant production was one of the best in the drama club's history, and its performance marked an important milestone for the group. North to Freedom is the first production penned by a member of the club. Theodore Ricks—a senior drama club member at Kennedy High—first drafted the script for his creative writing class. The script's dialogue was eloquent, and the playwright’s use of symbolism was intriguing. One symbol that appeared numerous times throughout the work was a white dove; the creature consistently aided Millie in finding the path toward freedom. Although the entire script was admirable, the Southern dialect added some much-needed authenticity to the play.

5One of the best examples of this occurs during the Jacksons' discovery of Millie's escape. As the lights dim and foreboding music begins to play, Mr. Jackson speaks, That girl is fixin' to move on No'th, and I ain't gonna let dat happen. Grab the hounds an' me meet at the tree line. We's gonna find her before this night is ova'. Mr. Jackson's cruel nature is again exposed when he threatens to sell Millie's father to another plantation owner if his daughter does not return.

6Although the script shone brightly, the play's technical aspects left much to be desired. This production includes many emotional scenes—the bright, cheerful scenery and lights contradict these pivotal moments. A set painted in earthy, muted colors and a moodier light configuration would have served this production well.

7By the audience members' intermittent grimaces, giggles, and gasps, I could tell everyone else was as captivated as I was by the show. All the cast members gave commendable performances, and even the most minor of characters made impressive contributions. The star that shone the brightest, however, was Amelia Brew, who played Millie. Brew's consistent demeanor and dauntless attitude allowed the audience to comprehend Millie's determination and willpower.

8The institution of slavery is a terrible stain on our country's history, and the Underground Railroad was instrumental in securing freedom for many escaped slaves. North to Freedom gives insight into the emotional and physical hardships that many slaves endured. I highly recommend that all members of the community come to Kennedy High School this Saturday to watch an encore performance of this production. In order to preserve the integrity of the play, I will not discuss the final scene; however, I will say that Millie's monologue at the end is one of the show’s most memorable scenes.

Read this excerpt from the blog of a student who saw the play North to Freedom. Which statement presents an opposing viewpoint from the excerpt?

Last Saturday I went to Kennedy High School's performance of the play North to Freedom. I thought this play was really neat. It was a about a young woman who escaped from slavery using the Underground Railroad.

When I first heard what the play was about, I thought it would be really boring. I really only went to see the play because my friend Amelia was playing the lead character. I am so glad I went! The story wasn't boring at all, and Amelia was so good. I never knew she was such a great actress. Great job, Amelia!

I think that everyone should go see this play. The actors do a great job, and the set and the lighting looked cool, too. This play can teach people a lot about the Underground Railroad and the long journey many escaped slaves took to gain their freedom.
A) Community members should go see the play.
B) All of the actors gave remarkable performances.
C) The lighting and the set design were not very good.
D) Amelia was the best actress in the entire production.

the first one should be right

and i think the second one is either the first or third answer choice

Well it can mean three things.

1) give the impression or sensation of being something or having a particular quality.

2) used to make a statement or description of one's thoughts, feelings, or actions less assertive or forceful.

3) be unable to do something, despite having tried.

Hope this helped! :)

The line endings of the provided poem are 'end-stopped' because each line finishes with its own punctuation, signaling a pause or stop.

The line endings of the poem 'Roses are red. Violets are blue.' are best described as end-stopped. An end-stopped line is a line in poetry that ends in punctuation, in this case a period, which indicates a pause or stop at the end of the line. This is in contrast to enjambment, where the sentence or clause continues onto the next line without terminal punctuation. The poem provided does not show enjambment, as each line concludes with its own complete idea and punctuation mark. Therefore, the correct answer is A. End-stopped.

Right threadbare was his overcoat; for he

Had got him yet no churchly benefice…" is a description of the clerk, who according to the narrator, is from Oxford. But he hasn't got the education that will enable him to get a proper office job nor does he have any job or income from the church. So, he is poor and his coat is the example of his condition "threadbare".

The term that is not the focus of Romanticism is nature. Thus, option D is correct.

Romanticism refers to romantic rather than practical ideas, goals, and sentiments. Her steadfast romanticism worried me. Noun that cannot be counted. The creative movement of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries known as Romanticism was concerned with the expression of an individual's sentiments and emotions.

A list of specific characteristics of romanticism literature includes subjectivity and a stress on individualism; spontaneity; freedom from norms; solitary existence rather than social life; ideas that imagination is superior to reason and dedication to beauty; love of and worship of nature.

Nature is a phrase that is not central to Romanticism. As a result, option D is correct.

Glasses are a really easy fix. They're the first things that somebody sees on your face. So they should really be making a statement about how you want to look. There are glasses that are really aging, like granny glasses, wire glasses and glasses that are rimless. But when you wear a young, modern frame that's rectangular, in a tortoise shell or plastic, your frames are very edgy. They have a lot of style. Right now, a really thick temple is really hot. You're giving up your style if you're just wearing one of those classic frames. They don't say anything, those classic frames. They just say old. A young person, a teenager or a 20-year-old, who wears glasses would not wear one of those rimless frames.

Answer:

The wind was as soft as your kiss,

My throat is dried like my heart when its broken,

And when I fell, you caught me like my words,

And I am tied up, like a secret un spoken,

The roses white, in this world of no color,

We whisper like the wind in the summer,

And when it rains like my tears, but from clouds in the sky,

I get to see the softness in your blue broken eyes.

Adverbial phrase

We wrote in our journals for twenty minutes each day.

The group of words "in our journal" is acting as an adverbial modifying -giving more information about- the verb wrote. Specifically, it is telling us more information about where the action took place; it is answering the question: where did we write? In our journals. Now, it is not a clause because it doesn't have a subject and a verb, so we can conclude that it is an adverbial phrase.

Tone is the author's attitude towards the texts that leads the reader to the mood, or how you are feeling when reading the text.  These can often be the same.  Look up a Tone Word Bank.  Reading this, there is a definitely a tone of contemplative (as she considers what to do and how she is growing up).  You could also say questioning and serious as well.  The theme is the lesson or the moral, so you would answer this with growing up can be hard on anyone.  One questions what is fair and important as they learn to go up.  In other words, the speaker is saying that it seems like yesterday she was young and carefree.  Now, she must make big decisions.

Answer: The first choice is the correct answer to show the quotation that supports the theme that feelings of guilt are difficult to escape: "O coward that I am, to live so long, /To see my best friend ta'en before my face!"

Explanation: Cassius is talking to Titanius as the enemies are running away. This is the point that Cassius starts to think that he has shown weakness to his men and lost their respect, due to a previous killing Cassius committed. He is now having second thoughts about the murder after the fact. Calling himself a "coward" shows his feeling of guilt. The difficult to escape part is best represented when he says, "to live so long..."

The best quotation supporting the theme of inescapable guilt is from a passage that discusses the societal aversion to negative emotions and how this magnifies feelings of guilt. Guilt is portrayed as hereditary and inescapable in another quote, and a third quote shows a character's internal struggle with guilt that torments him regardless of his rationalizations.

The quotation that best supports the theme that guilt is difficult to escape might be: “Ironically, it may be our individualistic focus on positive emotions and the pursuit of happiness that makes it so difficult to achieve positivity and happiness. As Manson observes, 'Our society today ... has bred a whole generation of people who believe that having these negative experiences – anxiety, fear, guilt, etc. – is not okay.' As he poignantly observes, 'the desire for a more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And paradoxically, the acceptance of one's negative experience is itself a positive experience.'” This quote encapsulates the struggle against feelings of guilt and the societal pressure to avoid negative experiences, highlighting the complexity of dealing with guilt. It aligns with the broader theme presented in the question by illustrating that the very act of trying to escape guilt amplifies it.

In a letter as Louisa May Alcott to Jo March, the title 'Little Women' symbolizes the growth and transition from childhood to womanhood, encouraging women to recognize their own journeys in the narrative.

Explanation:

My dearest Jo,

As you've grown, so too has the essence of Little Women. It is a tender reflection of youth's transition to adulthood. The title encapsulates your journey and that of your sisters—Meg, Beth, and Amy—from the 'little' stages to being 'women' in society. This narrative honors those who struggle but emerge stronger, as all women do. Your adventures and endeavors are windows to a world where every woman can see a fragment of herself and understand her own progress. Society expects certain paths, but like my dear March sisters, breaking molds is written in one's destiny.

Fondly and ever yours,
Louisa May Alcott
