APPLICATION OF POETRY TERMS “Thоse Winter Sundаys” by Rоbert Hаyden cоntinued. Sundаys too my father got up early and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold, then with cracked hands that ached from labor in the weekday weather made banked fires blaze. No one ever thanked him. 5 I’d wake and hear the cold splintering, breaking. When the rooms were warm, he’d call, and slowly I would rise and dress, fearing the chronic angers of that house, Speaking indifferently to him, 10 who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know of love’s austere and lonely offices? The author focuses on Sunday as opposed to any other day of the week. Choosing a particular word when other words could be used refers to what aspect of poetry?
APPLICATION OF FICTION TERMS Reаd the fоllоwing excerpt frоm Jonаthаn Safron Foer’s novel Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. What about a teakettle? What if the spout opened and closed when the steam came out, so it would become a mouth, and it could whistle pretty melodies, or do Shakespeare, or just crack up with me? I could invent a teakettle that reads in Dad’s voice, so I could fall asleep, or maybe a set of kettles that sings the chorus of “Yellow Submarine,” which is a song by the Beatles, who I love, because entomology is one of my raisons d’être, which is a French expression that I know. Another good thing is that I could train my anus to talk when I farted. If I wanted to be extremely hilarious, I’d train it to say, “Wasn't me!” every time I made an incredibly bad fart. And if I ever made an incredibly bad fart in the Hall of Mirrors, which is in Versailles, which is outside of Paris, which is in France, obviously, my anus would say, “Ce n’étais pas moi!” What point of view is used in the above selection? (Hint: It is at times difficult to read.)
