Why does Dickinson set the poem “Dying” in an ordinary bedroom, which isn’t even described? What might be her purpose in choosin
storchak [24]
I would think that setting the scene of someone dying is appropriate to be in a bedroom where a sick person would most likely be (if not in a hospital) such as someone in palliative care for example and the bedroom stillness is commented on  broken only by a fly and whose buzz perhaps accentuated the otherwise stillness. If the person's death was outside or in a public place it would more likely be the result of a, say an accident, or say an assassination such as that of Martin Luther King  so since it is inside in a bedroom it indicates the dying is just a normal death from illness and/or old age.

Softa [21]
The correct answer is letter <span>A: Certain words such as “Party’s” could have more than one meaning and reveals sarcasm in the author’s tone. 
</span>
The author used ambiguity in such lines because he was sarcastic about the event that was about to commence. He could have used the words "squad" or "cavalry" but he picked the word party to show his sarcastic tone. Ambiguous means, words that are open to more than one interpretation by the reader. The author gave the readers the chance to decipher how the characters are going to act out in the situation.
