13. What is the best paraphrase of the first stanza? (1 point)

I have a special place at the river where the wind goes through my hair and the ripples run across the river. I sometimes fish at the river. Sometimes I think about my life when I look at the river.
I sit on the bank at a special part of the river and feel the breeze in my hair. I watch the water. It is peaceful. The river is deep enough that I can fish and quiet enough for me to think. It’s a perfect place for me to think about how I fit in the world.
The river is very beautiful. There are many fish in it. It’s a good place to visit when you want to be alone. You can fish for a while or just look at the water.
I sit on the bank in my special place, feel the breeze that lifts my hair, and watch the ripples run across the river. It’s the perfect place to contemplate the world and my place in it.

But everything else was right.And everyone else trust me its right. But now I think about it, I think they might have changed some of the answer maybe....Anyway this should be it. Annd btw 6 question is multi choice in case you wondering. But bye <3

The answers are going to be different depending on what school you go to and which test you receive. Have each question listed with the multiple choice answers, placing stars after the answer you believe it to be, and listing the poem/writing associated with the questions is helpful to those of us who use this site for studying purposes. Also use a "code name" for a first name when posting replies and list which school you attend would help those seeking assistance and study help from the same school. Thanks.

The questions are not always the same.

"The River"

1 I sit on the bank in my special place,
2 Feel the breeze that lifts my hair,
3 And watch the ripples run across the river.
4 It is so peaceful here.
5 Deep enough to justify a fishing pole,
6 Quiet enough for my every thought,
7 The perfect place to contemplate
8 The world and my place in it.

9 Downstream, though, the river changes
10 From the one I know.
11 Its calm flow reaches rocky shallows
12 And starts to caper like a kitten,
13 Darting and chasing shadows among the stones.

14 The river leaves the shallows at a run,
15 Rushing faster and faster –
16 A wildcat roaring past steep banks
17 And wild, wet rocks.
18 It claws and crashes in a furious flood,
19 Foaming and spitting as its fury is subdued
20 In the soothing depths of dark, still pools.

21 Tired and tamed by the journey,
22 The river transforms itself again.
23 Its power abates and it seems to move
24 With deliberation, slower and wiser,
25 Past towns that mark its passing and then
26 Go about their business.

27 One by one the towns pass by,
28 And the banks give way
29 To borders of salt-smelling mud marsh.
30 Without need for senseless shows of strength,
31 The river relaxes like an aging lion,
32 Done with the hunt and ready for rest.

33 The water slows until it reaches its destiny,
34 A place not too different from mine,
35 Where the water stretches to meet the sky –
36 Where others just like me use the mirrored stream
37 To fish and contemplate
38 The world and their place in it.

thank you so much REED

Sorry, now that I see the poem, I think B is the best answer to #13. You were right the first time.

You are right on 14 - hearing.
18 - correct now
19 - still wrong

After looking more closely, you are wrong on 16 and 17.
