Answer:
The statement that best describes the theme of "A Day for Wandering" is:
B. The country is better than the city because it is more beautiful.
Explanation:
"A Day for Wandering" is a poem by author Clinton Scollard. The speaker of the poem talks about the day he spent in nature, away from the city. It was just that one day, though. The speaker does not talk of a total and complete decision to leave the city and stay in the country for good. It was a day the speaker "set apart for wandering".
<u>To the speaker's eyes, the country is more beautiful. While the city has "brawls and bruit", the country has voices from invisible throats, small animals effortlessly living their lives, with no worries or cares. The speaker seems to be merely observing and admiring nature. He's not trying to make sense of it. He is not judging life, struggling to understand its meaning, feeling small before the universe. He's simply existing along with nature and its beauty. We can, therefore, safely choose letter B as our answer: The country is better than the city because it is more beautiful.</u>

Answer: 2. "Thunder is good," said Mark Twain, "but it is lightning that does the work."
Explanation: the correct answer is the second option because first, it has a comma before and after "said Mark Twain", which is correct because when we use quotation marks and we want to add information (like who said it) between two phrases, we need to put it between two commas. The other that makes this option correct is that "but" doesn't begin with a capital letter, this is correct because it is a continuation of the first quote, it shouldn't begin in a capital letter.
There were many changes in the book the crucible in the character John Proctor but the ones that stands out the most are these:
John Proctor at the beginning of the book tells his wife about the affair, his wife retaliates by hating him for it. Abigail (whom he had the affair with) falls in love with him and is emotionally and physically out of her mind. She tries everything in her power to get him back to her. But Proctor refuses to give in. This infuriates Abigail causing her to start accusing everyone along with the help of other teenagers of being a witch. That many people includes John Proctors wife. Seeing that the only way that John could stop Abigail, he confesses to the court of the affair between him and Abigail but the plan is short lived when His wife tells the court that he has never cheated on her. At the end he is accused of being a witch by Mary and then he begins to give a false confession of being a witch which fails and he winds up dying at the end of a rope. So you see there were many changes in his character but all of them led to his downfall!
