What is the major theme in this excerpt from "ulysses" by alfred, lord tennyson?
how dull it is to pause, to make an end,
to rust unburnished, not to shine in use!
as though to breathe were life! life piled on life
were all too little, and of one to me
little remains; but every hour is saved
from that eternal silence, something more,
a bringer of new things; and vile it were
for some three suns to store and hoard myself,
and this grey spirit yearning in desire
to follow knowledge like a sinking star,
beyond the utmost bound of human thought.
a.
the yearning for new experience
b.
the desire for a peaceful life
c.
the desire for material gain
d.

Read this excerpt from “what i hope to leave behind.” for a number of years it took so much vitality to keep the home going, and that home represented so many different kinds of activities, that none of us had any urge to go outside of this sphere. if “what i hope to leave behind” was the subject of a class discussion, why might paraphrasing this sentence be ? you could analyze the key themes while also staying true to the original language. you could summarize the key ideas, which would shorten the length of the excerpt. you could use your own ideas and concepts, which would add important information. you could rephrase it in your own words, which might clarify the meaning of the excerpt.

Read the excerpt from "a modest proposal." the poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress, and to pay their landlord's rent, their corn and cattle being already seized, and money a thing unknown. which statement effectively uses a quotation to show that swift claims that the poor will also benefit from his proposal? “swift writes that poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress.” swift writes that poorer tenants will finally have something to pay their landlord’s rent since they have neither money nor trade. swift writes that poorer tenants will have something to trade for rent since “their corn and cattle” have already been seized. swift writes that “poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own” that can “ to pay their landlord’s rent.”
