The excerpt where the author walks around the pond revealed that He can be alone without actually feeling lonely and also comfortable in his own skin.

Explanation:

The meaning of "Solitude" by Thoreau is that; it is not Loneliness or isolation but rather it is about introspection and self communion. He says that a man can be lonely when surrounded by others if he does not feel real companionship with them.

Thoreau goes to the woods to live his life deliberately because He wished to live to front only the essentials of life and if He had really lived. Thoreau's main theme is about Simplicity. i.e Simplicity in experience, simplicity in self- reliance and simplicity in worship. this He believes brings the finer things in life.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

Constructed response paragraph: in the short story, the author describes her life during her “day away” but provides few details about her “normal” life. using information from the text, write a short story that describes events that precede the story above. as you detail the author’s daily routine before her “day away,” be sure your narrative establishes the story’s setting, first-person point of view, and primary conflict.

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
