There once was a man who had saved a lot of money during his life. It had become extremely important to him. It was so important, in fact, that he made his wife promise him that, when he died, she would bury all his money with him. Well, one day, he did die. At the funeral, dressed in black and crying, the man's wife stood and placed a shoe box inside the casket right before he was buried. Her friend leaned over and asked her, "Did you really bury all his money with him?" The wife answered, "I promised I would. So, I put all his money into my account and wrote him a check." This story just shows you that you really can't take money with you when you die. Where would a reader most likely find this kind of a paragraph? A. In a newspaper's financial section O B. In a dictionary C. In a textbook D. In a magazine

' -  o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way!   and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness,   to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. the imagery and word choice in the second stanza creates a tone of liveliness and joy danger and gloom silence and peace anger and hostility
