UID On monday we read Walt Whitman's, I hear America Singing.
In it he described what he heard and saw in America. We talked
about how his circumstance influenced his view. In what ways
does
your life change how you view the world? Are these
things good? Or are these things bad? Describe how if you
didn't have these factors in your life how your view might be
different?

Read the passage. when mother’s fever persisted for a week, father summoned our family doctor. dr. blakemore applied leeches to mother’s skin in hopes of reducing the amount of blood in her body. despite the doctor’s efforts, she languished in bed for three more days before her appetite returned and she requested a thin broth. our dear cook, mrs. davis, prepared the broth and delivered it to my mother directly, eager to ease her discomfort. what can readers infer about the time period of the passage?
