C., visit the well-known memorials, including the Washington Monument, the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials, and the more recent Vietnam Memorial Wall, a beautiful and lesser-known memorial is an environmental park that occupies 7.5 acres, it is the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial. In 1974, Lawrence Halprin was commissioned to design the memorial, he is a respected environmental designer who has worked on restoration projects and designs in San Francisco, Seattle, and even Jerusalem. The FDR Memorial has four outdoor galleries or rooms that represent his four terms of office, with trees, waterfalls, sculptures, and pools defining the spaces. The first room represents FDR's first term in the midst of the Great Depression, the second room represents his leadership of hope through his fireside chats, the third room represents the difficulties and uncertainties of war, the fourth room represents a brief moment of peace before his death in office. Although Roosevelt himself disliked being seen in his wheelchair, one of the sculptures represents him in his chair. He was a chain smoker who was often seen with his cigarette holder in hand, none of the sculptures include his cigarette.

Examine the imagery in these lines of the poem "the legend" by garrett hongo. he is asian, thai or vietnamese, and very skinny, dressed as one of the poor in rumpled suit pants and a plaid mackinaw, dingy and too large. he negotiates the slick of ice on the sidewalk by his car, opens the fairlane's back door, leans to place the laundry in, and turns, for an instant, toward the flurry of footsteps and cries of pedestrians as a boy—that's all he was— backs from the corner package store shooting a pistol, firing it, once, at the dumbfounded man who falls forward, grabbing at his chest. how does the imagery in these lines affect the reader’s experience of the poem? check all that apply. it creates a visual picture of the man. it conveys what the scene sounds like. it describes the actions of the boy. it reveals the poet’s opinion of the characters. it encourages readers to care for the characters. it shows the resolution of a conflict. it explains the reasons for the event.
