16. It refers to the wallpaper (c). You can infer this because the first few paragraphs she is describing something acrid and yellow, and follows it up with “He laughs at me so about this wallpaper” (paragraph 6).

17. The capitalization of REASON is the narrator implying that her husband thinks that she is irrational (A). The narrator is trying to convey that her husband believes that her life is great and that she has no reason to be upset and the fact that she is upset is irrational.

18. Her relationship with her husband is strained (B). Clearly the narrator and her husband have been arguing about the wallpaper and the reason why she is upset.

19. We can infer that the narrator is suffering from mental illness (C). She is having delusions that the wallpaper is causing her to suffer greatly. When someone is worrying, paranoid, or upset about nothing you can infer that they have a mental illness of some sort.

20. “Such fancies” refers to being so nervous about her situation. The husband doesn’t want to redecorate the room because he doesn’t want to encourage her delusions further; he believes that she should just get over it and stop being so outlandish over nothing.

the difference between an explicit and implicit meaning is that the explicit meaning of a poem is that the detail is exactly defined. nothing is left to interpretation. an implicit meaning is an implied meaning. kabir's poetry is both explicit and implicit in that it can be interpreted on different levels. the explicit meaning leaves nothing to interpretation while the implicit meaning leaves lots open to interpretation. an example of this is found in the poem "rumi and the spiritual lover".

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
