Read this excerpt from “the world” by christina rossetti:

by day she wooes me, soft, exceeding fair;
but all night as the moon so changeth she;
loathsome and foul with hideous leprosy
and subtle serpents gliding in her hair.
by day she wooes me to the outer air,
ripe fruits, sweet flowers, and full satiety:
but thro' the night, a beast she grins at me,
a very monster void of love and prayer,
by day she stands a lie:

which statement best describes the theme?

a (love escapes us because of the change from day to night.)
b (nighttime is monstrous, but it is better than daytime.)
c (beauty can be alluring, but it is also dangerous.)
d (daytime hides the danger and intrigue of night.)

What is the meaning of each underlined word in these excerpts from "a modest proposal" by jonathan swift? i think it is agreed by all parties, that this prodigious number of children in the arms, or on the backs, or at the heels of their mothers, and frequently of their fathers, is in the present deplorable state of the kingdom, a very great additional grievance; and therefore whoever could find out a fair, cheap and easy method of making these children sound and useful members of the common-wealth, would deserve so well of the publick, as to have his statue set up for a preserver of the nation. some persons of a desponding spirit are in great concern about that vast number of poor people, who are aged, diseased, or maimed; and i have been desired to employ my thoughts what course may be taken, to ease the nation of so grievous an incumbrance. the word prodigious means . the word desponding means .

Read the excerpt from elie wiesel’s all rivers run to the sea. why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into poland? why were the tracks leading to birkenau never bombed? i have put these questions to american presidents and generals and to high-ranking soviet officers. since moscow and washington knew what the killers were doing in the death camps, why was nothing done at least to slow down their “production”? that not a single allied military aircraft ever tried to destroy the rail lines converging on auschwitz remains an outrageous enigma to me. birkenau was “processing” ten thousand jews a day. stopping a single convoy for a single night—or even for just a few hours—would have prolonged so many lives. based on the paragraph, the author would most likely agree that it is best to avoid confrontation at all costs. people need to be proactive when they witness an injustice. countries should remain neutral to keep alliances strong. moscow and washington are to be blamed for the holocaust.
