In the poem, the poet warns Helen Grey of the dangers of being self-centered and vain. Author Christina Georgina Rossetti writes, "But so you miss that modest charm...Take heed, you may yet trip and fall, and no man care to stretch his arm." The poet suggests behaving in a humble manner is a better way to behave by saying, "Come down [from your cold height], to fill it now with grace".

Helen Gray is self-centered and vain. She is shallow and cold. The poet suggests that behaving in a humble manner is a better way than behaving like Helen Gray.

P.S. - Next time, post the poem along with your question. It was a real inconvenience having to look it up.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not include the article or text for reference. However, we can help you comment in general terms.

Fragmentation is notorious for the number of spectators who watch TV or comedy shows. The comparison is between "The Cosby Show" during the 1980s and "Two And A Half Men" in the 2010s.

"The Cosby Show" had an average audience of 30 million. A total success. "Two And A Half Men" had an average audience of 15 million, and for today's standards, it was a success.

Fragmentation has resulted in the diversification of people's tastes, culture, preferences, likes, and dislikes. This has had a direct impact on the numerous shows that have been produced to satisfy every market niche. That is why, today we can see advertisings for many kinds of shows, different audiences, different topics, genres, and situations.

Kipish [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Read the following excerpt from "Madam and the Rent Man" by Langston Hughes.

He said, Madam,

I ain't pleased!

I said, Neither am I.

So we agrees!

The poet chooses to use slang in this stanza because it

A.reflects the way people really spoke, which makes the poem more realistic.  B.avoids using informal language, which is not appropriate for poems.  C.provides a standard rhyme within the stanza, which makes the poem easier to understand.  D.shows a bond between Madam and the rent man that suggests they will resolve their differences.

Answer:

A. reflects the way people really spoke, which makes the poem more realistic.

Explanation:

When the poet decided to use slang in the poem, he wanted to establish a language closer to the readers, so he decided to write in a more informal tone and using common words from the daily lives of people.

This, in addition to bringing the text closer to the reader, allows the reader to read something in a more familiar and realistic language, increasing their understanding of the work.

According to the poem, you will feel _________ when you greet yourself.
VladimirAG [237]
<span>The correct answer is D. elation. These are the exact lines from the poem "Love After Love" by Derek Walcott: "The time will come / when, with elation / you will greet yourself..." Obviously, these lines show us that we will be elated when we meet ourselves at one point in our lives. The poem tells us that we should love ourselves, and not only other people, and that we should enjoy our lives while we still can.</span>
