In Emily Dickinson’s poem, she uses metaphor, likening the notion of hope to a bird that flies despite “the storm”, the cold of “the chilliest land” and the isolation of “the strangest sea” and because such metaphorical bird “flies” inside one’s “soul”, such hope is personified. In Finding Flight, the process is similar although here the text is not a poem but a story in prose. The device of remembrance of the figure of the late grandfather turns a hummingbird into a symbol of hope for the narrator. There is no metaphor here but actually symbolism. The hummingbird symbolizes both hope and the memory of the beloved grandfather who has “passed”. The bird “gives hope” both to the grandfather and the granddaughter. The plot structure is the same for both works, a reflection on the luminosity of hope, then a period of hardship that tests hope and then the resilience of hope despite all the troubles and darkness of life.

She's only filled with an old blind wish.
It isn't even hers but came to her
in the rain
or the soft wind,
which is a gate through which her life keeps
walking.
She can't see
herself apart from the rest of the world
or the world from what she must do
every spring.
Crawling up the high hill,
luminous under the sand that has packed
against her skin.
she doesn't dream
she knows
she is a part of the pond she lives in,
the tall trees are her children,
the birds that swim above her
are tied to her by an unbreakable string.
—“The Turtle,”
Mary Oliver

STORY: The Elevator by William Sleator
Answer:
THEME: It is better to face your fears than to avoid them.
The author encourages readers to confront their fears rather than avoid them. Martin's fear was able to track him down because he had fled from it.
EVIDENCE FROM THE STORY:
12-year-old. Martin dreads being alone in an elevator and feels nervous in the elevator with others. He states: "That was what he hated about being alone in the thing—the fear of being trapped in there for hours by himself." He can't decide between the stairs and the elevator because of the overweight woman. The elevator portrays the big woman, while the stairs reflect his father's frailty.

Which two sentences contain Ronald Reagan's main argument in this excerpt from his 1964 speech "A Time for Choosing"?
As for the peace that we would preserve, I wonder who among us would like to approach the wife or mother whose husband or son has died in South Vietnam and ask them if they think this is a peace that should be maintained indefinitely. Do they mean peace, or do they mean we just want to be left in peace? There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world for the rest of us. We're at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it's been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening. Well I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the freedoms that were intended for us by the Founding Fathers.
Answer:
"There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world for the rest of us",
"If we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours..", this sentence reflects the idea of Reagan's speech of the need of an active government that will not stop fighting for the American values.
