the tyger
by william blake

tyger, tyger, burning bright
in the forests of the night,
what immortal hand or eye
could frame thy fearful symmetry?

in what distant deeps or skies
burnt the fire of thine eyes?
on what wings dare he aspire?
what the hand dares seize the fire?

and what shoulder and what art
could twist the sinews of thy heart?
and, when thy heart began to beat,
what dread hand and what dread feet?

what the hammer? what the chain?
in what furnace was thy brain?
what the anvil? what dread grasp
dare its deadly terrors' clasp?

when the stars threw down their spears,
and watered heaven with their tears,
did he smile his work to see?
did he who made the lamb make thee?

tyger, tyger, burning bright
in the forests of the night,
what immortal hand or eye
dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

i wandered lonely as a cloud
by william wordsworth

i wandered lonely as a cloud

that floats on high o'er vales and hills,

when all at once i saw a crowd,

a host, of golden daffodils;

beside the lake, beneath the trees,

fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

continuous as the stars that shine

and twinkle on the milky way,

they stretched in never-ending line

along the margin of a bay:

ten thousand saw i at a glance,

tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

the waves beside them danced; but they

out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

a poet could not but be gay,

in such a jocund company:

i gazed—and gazed—but little thought

what wealth the show to me had brought:

for oft, when on my couch i lie

in vacant or in pensive mood,

they flash upon that inward eye

which is the bliss of solitude;

and then my heart with pleasure fills,

and dances with the daffodils.

1. What effect do the stanzas have on the meaning of this poem?

The correct answer is D: Each stanza presents a different aspect of the creation of the tiger.

In overall, "The Tyger" poem, is about asking the tiger about its traits and the traits of its creator. Each stanza addresses several questions, open to interpretation, that depict the fearful yet marvelous essence of the tiger, and the traits and actions of a God (probably a Christian one).

In the first stanza, William Blake writes metaphorically about the tiger's fur, when referring to it as "Burning bright" and then he mentions where he roams: "In the forest of the night". The following two verses seem to question whether a divine being could create such a fearful and fascinating creature.

In the second one, the author remarks its fiery eyes and wonder whether they come from heaven or hell. And then again ask about what divine being could've ever made the tiger.

The 3rd stanza's main subject is a group of questions about God's physical characteristics. And in the following, the author keeps asking questions, but this time about the "elements" involved in the making of the creature. The 5th one, seems to be a reference of another story, and then Blake asks if this "divine being" looked proud upon this animal jungle he created, and add one more: "Did He who made the lamb make thee?".

And finally, the last stanza is similar to the first one, with the word "Dare" instead of "Could".

2. How does the meaning of the last stanza relate to the meaning of the whole poem?

The correct answer is C: It connects the spirit of the speaker with that of the daffodils.

In this last stanza, the speaker comes to reality by describing himself lying on his couch, thinking. However, even though he’s not seeing the daffodils anymore, and he recognizes it, he naturally remembers them. And the memory of the daffodils makes him feel again the way he did when he was with them. He relives the moment, connecting his spirit with the daffodil’s.  

3. Which alliterative phrase from the poem creates a grateful mood?

The correct answer is B: “Golden in the mercy of his means,”

This phrase comes from the poem "Fern Hill" by Dylan Thomas, and is found in the second stanza, where the author is praising and detailing moments he spent at Fern Hill when he was young. He describes himself as "Golden", which can refer to the way he was feeling at that time: very valuable, radiant and alive, where he was present. To appreciate and recognize the moment he was living is to be, as well, grateful.

4. Select the phrase to correctly complete the sentence.

The correct answer is C: Waiting anxiously for news about college, Richie checked the mail every day.

This phrase: “Waiting anxiously for news about college” works as a dependent  and introductory clause, and the grammar rule is that when the independent clause is before the independent clause (In this case: "Richi checked the mail every day") is necessary to put a comma, so the sentence can be well understood.
