Read Gwendolyn Brooks' poem, "The Bean Eaters" and answer the question.
They eat beans mostly, this old yellow pair.
Dinner is a casual affair.
Plain chip ware on a plain and creaking wood,
Tin flatware.

Two who are Mostly Good.
Two who have lived their day,
But keep on putting on their clothes
And putting things away.

And remembering…
Remembering, with twinklings and twinges,
As they lean over the beans in their rented back room that
is full of beads and receipts and dolls and cloths.
tobacco crumbs, vases and fringes.

The use of repetition in the second stanza supports the poem's themes in what way?
A) It linguistically suggests a break from the monotony of their existence.
B) It linguistically mirrors the kind of repetitive monotony that has characterized their lives.
C) It linguistically creates excitement to suggest that this couple is happy.
D) It doesn't suggest anything apart from what it describes.

Read the excerpt from chapter 18 in frankenstein. alas! to me the idea of an immediate union with my elizabeth was one of horror and dismay. i was bound by a solemn promise which i had not yet fulfilled and dared not break, or if i did, what manifold miseries might not impend over me and my devoted family! could i enter into a festival with this deadly weight yet hanging round my neck and bowing me to the ground? i must perform my engagement and let the monster depart with his mate before i allowed myself to enjoy the delight of a union from which i expected peace. examine this excerpt to analyze the way the author’s choice of words adds to the meaning and impacts the tone of this portion of frankenstein. what does victor mean when he talks about “this deadly weight yet hanging round my neck and bowing me to the ground”? how do these words affect the tone at this point in the story? use examples and evidence from the text to support your analysis. frankenstein chapter 18
