(1) after my interview with these four young people, i reflected on the quiet sense of "difference" i sensed with many of these upward bound students. (2) as a college teacher who has also taught seventh-grade science, i have some experience with the faces and attitudes of adolescence. (3) upward bound students had those faces. (4) there was the puzzled coping with changing bodies—hormone hell. (5) there was ambivalence about "authority figures" and uncertainties about whether or not the world would have some place for them. (6) there were the studied rationalizations about lapses on homework assignments, moments of despair, adolescent angst—all of that. (7) but there was also that "difference." (8) maybe it's one part knowing people care and one part beginning to trust the future. (9) i wasn't sure. (turner, "onward and upward: upward bound open college doors," virginia journal of education, june 1992. adapted as fair usage.) 11. which statement best summarizes the conclusion one may draw from this passage?

Read the excerpt from "annabel lee," by edgar allan poe. and this was the reason that, long ago, in this kingdom by the sea, a wind blew out of a cloud, chilling my beautiful annabel lee; so that her highborn kinsmen came and bore her away from me, to shut her up in a sepulchre in this kingdom by the sea. how does the rhythm of the excerpt support the theme of the poem? the rhythm changes on the phrase “a kingdom by the sea,” emphasizing poe’s distrust of a monarchy. the rhythm changes on the phrase “bore her away from me,” emphasizing poe’s desire to be reunited the rhythm changes on the words “chilling” and “sepulchre,” emphasizing poe’s complaint about unexpected death. the rhythm changes on the words “lee” and “me,” emphasizing poe’s fear that his bond with his love is fragile.
