In “First Night,” what is the most likely reason the speaker says “sleeping was hard”?

B. The speaker is admiring nature.

Explanation:

Nikki Grimes's poem "First Night" is a short poem of 18 lines separated in three stanzas. In the poem, the speaker talks of the beauty of the night sky and addressed another person named "Zuri".

The speaker was camping out at her aunt's backyard, narrating the poem as a letter to "Zuri". Line 5 and 6 says "Sleeping was hard with all the sparkling beauty hanging overhead". Further lines reveal "Night-lights", "cluster of fireflies", and "the sky", all a wondrous sight for the speaker. The beautiful nature, the night sky, and its beauty made sleeping difficult for the speaker.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.
