Read Rita Dove's poem "Teach Us to Number Our Days" at the Poetry Foundation website and

answer the following in an essay of at least four paragraphs:

Describe the scene in the poem. What kind of neighborhood does the poem depict? Is it a pleasant or

unpleasant place, and why? What do the phrases "slim blue bullet" (4), " blue bean"(8), and black tie"(12)

mean? What is the overall message of the poem? Explain the last line and the title. Is your neighborhood

like this? Why or why not?

The sconce refers to the wall lights, this is light fixtures that appear on the wall, and provide lighting. They can be located inside and outside of the buildings, although their function is mainly decorative. The light goes upwards and the sconce also can hold a candle or a torch. It is mostly made of silver or brass.

the correct answer is

the

third option. in the excerpt from "why equal pay is worth fighting

for" by senator elizabeth warren, she supports her point by noting:

"for middle-class families today, it usually takes two incomes to get by.”

warren supported barbara mikulski’s the paycheck fairness act to combat wage

discrimination, as it would to ensure “that salary differences have

something to do with the actual job that they are doing, and not just because

they are women”.
