Sandburg's (blank) poem
describes the ability of people to forget the toll of
war.

Grass

Explanation:

In the poem 'Grass' (1918), Carl Sandburg uses personification to express nature´s frustration with how easily people forget the toll of war. Their eventual disregard of those who died in war makes them unable to learn from the past to avoid repeating their mistakes.   The grass eventually covers the battlefield where the dead lie, and people forget that anything has even happened.

reasoning from several particular examples to establish a general principle

femininity is conveyed through bernice's personality. she doesn't act how the other girls act and everyone thinks she is weird. she learns how to act in a way that was considered femininely appropriate at the time. she becomes so popular but her attempts to be liked end up backfiring when she is pressured into bobbing her hair. the author wrote that bernice cut off her cousin's hair in revenge for tricking her to cut her hair. this was the authors way of trying to change the way feminine is defined and the way women are expected to act.
