Excerpt from Mother Nature's Fury
Tracy Wilson
While I cannot remember the actual impact, pictures from the aftermath tell the story word for word. The tin can that once was a
car was belly up in the top of a 100 foot maple. We hung there for hours oblivious to the disaster around us. When rescuers could
finally get to us, power lines made it too dangerous to touch the metal car. I awoke first 32 days after my ride in the sky and
remembered much of the ordeal. My sister however, after lying in a coma for nearly three months, has no recollection of any
detail from her life before the accident. Lack of oxygen erased her past. My physical wounds have long since healed, but spend
many hours below ground. The slightest hint of thunder or an awkward colored sunset sends me racing to my life below to hide
from her.
Which word describes the author's emotions since the storm?
fearful
grateful
hateful
joyful

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
