Language arts grade 8 semester b Unit 2 lesson 8 Voices in Verse Unit test

1. B lines 2 and 4
2. B light eliminating from shadows
3. D it uses comparison with sunlight...
4. A it will make mountains and valleys bright...
5. A gloomy
6. (Evidence from the 3rd and 4th stanzas) To gild something is to coat it with gold. Gild means to "cover thinly" with gold as in barely gold. Light shining on something has nothing to with gold leaf or gold plate, but it Makes it shine LIKE gold. The connotation differs from the denotation because it contributes to a warm hopeful tone. The use of imagery is basically the author using very descriptive words to emphasize their work.(Third stanza 9-10) "It shall flood with golden splendor/ All the huts of Coraline..." is imagery because it describes the scene in vivid detail. The phrase "golden splendor" rouses am excited tone.
7. D expressing unhappiness
8. B restatement
9. D line 31
10. B The river becomes calmer at this point.
11. C line 16
12. D The river is moving quickly and becomes rough.
13. A The river gets faster...
14. B hearing
15. A charge
16. A the rain looked shiny under the streetlight.
17. B The winners of the contest are they.
18. A My Sister Sarah loves to cook.
19. C Even my cousin Steve feels sad today.

Theses are my answers. The multi choice ones should be correct as of March 3 2020 unless my answers aren't on your test.

The written response is what i put in on my test, so therefore i am not responsible if you have a very strict teacher that only gives you 2 points cuz she wanted you to "elaborate more". This answer has answered hopefully all parts of the test. If you wanted to, you can expand further on my answer

She has the answers for a different test.

And you think the answers are ... ?

Here's the poem -- to which I've added some line numbers:

"President Lincoln's Declaration of Emancipation, January 1, 1863 by Frances E. W. Harper

It shall flash through coming ages,
It shall light the distant years;
And eyes now dim with sorrow
Shall be brighter through their tears

It shall flush the mountain ranges, (5)
And the valleys shall grow bright;
It shall bathe the hills in radiance,
And crown their brows with light

It shall flood with golden splendor
All the huts of Caroline; (10)
And the sun-kissed brow of labor
With lustre new shall shine.

It shall gild the gloomy prison,
Darkened by the nation's crime,
Where the dumb and patient millions (15)
Wait the better-coming time.

By the light that gilds their prison
They shall see its mouldering key;
And the bolts and bars shall vibrate
With the triumphs of the free. (20)

Though the morning seemed to linger
O'er the hill-tops far away,
Now the shadows bear the promise
Of the quickly coming day.

Soon the mists and murky shadows (25)
Shall be fringed with crimson light,
And the glorious dawn freedom
Break refulgent on the sight.
