What is the theme of the poem and why explain your reasoning

I am fourteen
and my skin has betrayed me
the boy I cannot live without
still sucks his thumb
in secret
how come my knees are
always so ashy
what if I die
before morning
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
I have to learn how to dance
in time for the next party
my room is too small for me
suppose I die before graduation
they will sing sad melodies
but finally
tell the truth about me
There is nothing I want to do
and too much
that has to be done
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
Nobody even stops to think
about my side of it
I should have been on Math Team
my marks were better than his
why do I have to be
the one
wearing braces
I have nothing to wear tomorrow
will I live long enough
to grow up
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.

John Adams was the smartest President.

Q: Read the following excerpt from The Princess and the Goblin by George Macdonald. Then, answer the question that follows.

Perhaps you will wonder how the princess could tell that the old lady was an old lady, when I inform you that not only was she beautiful, but her skin was smooth and white. Her hair was combed back from her forehead and face, and hung loose far down and all over her back. That is not much like an old lady—is it? Ah! but it was white almost as snow. And although her face was so smooth, her eyes looked so wise that you could not have helped seeing she must be old. The princess, though she could not have told you why, did think her very old indeed—quite fifty, she said to herself.

Mom’s Promise

Jasmine and Jeremiah’s mom was dedicated to her children. She taxied them back and forth to school, dance classes, soccer practice, and any other activity they wanted to do — basically, if the kids had a desire to pursue it, their mom would find a way to make it happen.
Of course, there were times that Jasmine and Jeremiah couldn’t get what they yearned for. For instance, one summer, Jasmine and Jeremiah begged to visit a large amusement park that they kept seeing advertised on TV, but their mom knew it was beyond their budget for vacation that year. She told them she would do everything she could to make their vacation dream come to fruition the next year, but she made “no promises.”
At the time, Jasmine was vexed. She rolled her eyes as she reflected on how her mom had never kept a promise in her life! But that wasn’t true — it wasn't that Mom didn't keep promises. She had never actually made a promise to Jasmine and Jeremiah.
Before the kids were born, Jasmine and Jeremiah's mom made an oath to herself. She knew that it would be important to instill a sense of honesty in her children. She wanted them to know the importance of being trustworthy — and she also knew if she made promises she didn’t keep, her children would not have confidence in her. They wouldn’t depend on her because they wouldn’t know if they could actually rely on her.
Mom never wanted that to happen, so once Jasmine and Jeremiah were around, she avoided ever making promises.
Of course, the kids would try to trick her — sometimes, they would try to get Mom to promise something really simple that seemed to guarantee to happen! There was no danger in making a promise that she would keep, right? But every time, Mom would still refuse.
Sometimes, on Thursday nights, Jeremiah would ask Mom if they could have pizza for dinner the following night. He knew that they had a family pizza night every Friday, but he wanted to try to scheme his mom into making a promise.
When Mom agreed — with a smile, of course, since she knew their tricks — Jeremiah would grin back and ask, “Promise?”
But Mom wouldn’t promise — and anytime they asked her to, she would reply with a loving, “I’ll try my best.”
One day, when Jasmine and Jeremiah interrogated Mom about why she wouldn’t make a promise, she explained it like this: “I want you to always trust me, and I want you to know that I mean what I say. But sometimes, things are out of our control; nothing in life is guaranteed. I might want to tell you something is definite, but there are some circumstances out of our control. I never want to break a promise to you, and the only way to guarantee I don’t break a promise is to never make one.”
Mom put her hands on Jasmine and Jeremiah’s shoulders. “I will make you one promise, but it’s the only one I’ll make. I promise I will always try my best.”

Question 1

Read the passage:
Gods and men alike suffered from the sorrow of Demeter. To her, in pity for the barren earth, Zeus sent an embassy, but in vain it came. Merciless was the great Earth Mother, who had been robbed of what she held most dear.

"Give me back my child!" she said. "Gladly I watch the sufferings of men, for no sorrow is as my sorrow. Give me back my child, and the earth shall grow fertile once more."

Why does the final line provoke Zeus to make a decision?

Question 1 options:

Zeus takes pity on Demeter because she seems so desperate for help getting her daughter back.


Zeus realizes that the kidnapping of Proserpine was wrong and he needs to punish Pluto.

Zeus realizes that granting Demeter's request to return her daughter to her will be good for the whole world.

Zeus knows that he is responsible for Demeter's daughter and decides to help her out of the goodness of his heart.

Question 2
Read the passage:

"Who are you?" he whispered, as he was melting at the young chieftain's feet.

"I am Go hay—the Spring," answered the young chieftain. "All the earth is glad, when I come to drive you back to your lodge in the North Sky, for I bring sunshine, and love, and joy."

Why does the last line of dialogue cause Old Man Winter to act?

Question 2 options:

Go hay's words strike fear into Old Man Winter, causing him to finally decide to leave.

Old Man Winter was touched by how beautiful the springtime was, so he left to make room for new life.

Go hay's words were so funny that Old Man Winter became friends with him.

Old Man Winter decided that it was too much trouble to argue with Go hay, so he left willingly.

Question 3
Read the passages:

Back to the flowery island of Sicily her mother brought her, and the peach trees and the almonds blossomed showily as she passed. The olives decked themselves with their soft grey leaves, the corn sprang up, green and lush and strong. The lemon and orange groves grew golden with luscious fruit, and all the land was carpeted with flowers. For six months of the year she stayed, and gods and men rejoiced at the bringing back of Proserpine. For six months she left her green and pleasant land for the dark kingdom of him whom she loved, and through those months the trees were bare, and the earth chill and brown, and under the earth the flowers hid themselves in fear and awaited the return of the fair daughter of Demeter.



"I, too, am powerful, and I am young! I do not fear you. When I touch the earth, it grows soft and warm. Every living thing stirs in its sleep,—birds and bees, flowers and trees, animals and men. When I speak, the sleeping sun awakes. See! Already he begins to send down his arrows. Hasten! that they may not find you, on the trail to the North Sky."

The Old Man trembled. His legs and arms grew weak. Icicles fell from his beard. Great tears rolled down his cheeks.



How do these two texts depict spring in similar ways?

Question 3 options:

Both use words that carry positive connotations in order to depict spring as a time of rebirth and growth.


Both use images to show that spring is a dark and quiet time of year.

Both use images that show that spring is inevitable and it is not more important than the winter or any other season.

Both use words that carry negative connotations in order to show that the passing of winter is a sad and unhappy time.

Question 4
Demeter and Old Man Winter both cause winter in their respective myths.

How are these two figures characterized differently in each text?

Question 4 options:

Demeter is characterized as a figure motivated by her own grief and sadness, while Old Man Winter is shown to be someone motivated by anger and a desire to cause mayhem.

Demeter is shown to not mind if she causes suffering, while Old Man Winter is characterized as a kindhearted person.

Old Man Winter is shown as someone who is mean and malicious, while Demeter is shown as someone who helps people out of kindness.

Old Man Winter is characterized as someone who is motivated by his shortcomings, while Demeter is characterized as someone who acts out of rage and hate.

Question 5
How does Proserpine's decision to eat the seeds of a pomegranate propel the action of the story?

Question 5 options:

Her action causes Zeus to fail to keep his promise.

Demeter then gets her daughter back.

It keeps her from ever returning from the underworld forever.

The seeds end up bringing winter to the world.
