Answer:
The narrator is preoccupied by a desire to travel.
Explanation:
In the poem "Travel," by Edna St. Vincent Millay, the speaker expresses an intense yearning for traveling. In fact, she is so obsessed and absorted in her dreams and eagerness about traveling, that during the day she can hear the whistle of a train. Besides, at night she cannot sleep but sees the train's "ciders red on the sky" and hears the sound of a steaming engine. Thus, she has a fascination with traveling, since she would take any train and go anywhere, and she believes she would make the best of friends.
Answer:
As Pete and Malia headed out the door on <u>their</u> way to the convention, they almost forgot the money they would need to get in <u>there</u>.
They were very excited to <u>buy</u> the latest edition of their favorite comic book <u>by</u> their favorite author.
Explanation:
Homophones are words that are pronounced the same way but have different meanings (and sometimes spelling).
In the first sentence, there are two homophones:<em> their </em>and<em> there.</em><em> </em><em>Their</em> is a word used to describe that something <em>belongs to them</em> (Pete and Malia's way - their way). <em>There</em> is the opposite of <em>here</em> and means <em>at that place </em>(get into the convention - get in there).
The second pair of homophones is <em>buy</em> and<em> by</em>. <em>To buy</em> is a verb that means <em>to purchase</em> something. <em>By</em> is a preposition used to state who is performing a certain action (a comic book by their favorite author - their favorite author wrote the book they are buying).
