Read the excerpt from “The Oval Portrait,” by Edgar Allan Poe.

The rays of the numerous candles (for there were many) now fell within a niche of the room which had hitherto been thrown into deep shade by one of the bed-posts. I thus saw in vivid light a picture all unnoticed before. It was the portrait of a young girl just ripening into womanhood. I glanced at the painting hurriedly, and then closed my eyes. Why I did this was not at first apparent even to my own perception. But while my lids remained thus shut, I ran over in my mind my reason for so shutting them. It was an impulsive movement to gain time for thought?—to make sure that my vision had not deceived me—to calm and subdue my fancy for a more sober and more certain gaze.

Read the poem below and answer the question.

The Journey
by Mary Oliver

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice --
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do --
determined to save
the only life you could save.

If I was being freed from a kidnapper then I'd call for help to arrest them. If I was released from jail/prison coz I did something wrong, I'd look for a job.

Hi! Depending on the situation I would do a few different things based off of the situation I’m in. If I was being held captive by a kidnapper and I’m being released I would call the police and look for help to arrest the kidnapper so he/she can’t kidnap again. If I was getting out of prison or jail then I would look for a way to make income. I hope

How does your answer compare to this sample? Which choice best describes how your answer compares to the model? My answer matched the sample closely. I said some of the same things that the sample response did. My answer was very different than the sample response.

Answers

Hi. You did not submit the sample that the question refers to, nor did you submit your answer. This makes it impossible for this question to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Your question asks you to compare your answer with a model answer. You don't show the context these two answers are related to, so you should look for that context in your paper. It is likely that these answers are related to the previous question.

To make the comparison you should note which elements these questions have similar or equal and how they complement each other. The more similar, the more complementary the two answers are. If the two answers do not complement each other, nor do they have any similar elements, it means that they are completely different.

Talk about animal migration.

Answers

Animals migrate looking for new sources of food & water. Most of the larger animals live on the continent of Africa. They also migrate to warmer climates in winter like birds. Humpback wales migrate south in the Pacific Ocean to give birth to their babies, then later when their calves are stronger, migrate north up the coast. These migrations happen because animals are looking for food, water, or warmer climates etc. animals will travel long distances in search for these things.
