(Giving brainliest and extra points!! Sorry if its long lol) Scene One

On an overcast autumn afternoon in the middle of a field with many apple trees. A brother and a sister have a ladder up against an apple tree. One is picking apples and placing them in a sack tied around her waist. The other is holding the ladder steady.

Mischa: (standing on the ladder and looking at an apple) I'm not so sure about these. They have a ton of spots and are not quite ripe.

Luke: That's alright, we're just making a pie for Sunday dinner anyway. No one will see the spots, and we can add sugar to sweeten them up.

Mischa: (Nodding in approval) Yeah, I guess you're right. Mom always likes her pie apples to be a little firm anyways.

Suddenly, the wind begins to blow strongly making the ladder tip back and forth slightly.

Mischa: (With an alarmed look on her face.) What's going on? There isn't supposed to be a storm today! We'll never make it back to our house before it hits!

Luke: (Holding onto the ladder as hard as he can) You need to come down! I can't hold the ladder much longer!

Mischa carefully but swiftly climbs down the ladder while the wind is still blowing. Luke holds on to the ladder as it sways back and forth. Mischa makes it to the bottom. They both look toward dark clouds rolling in quickly with thunder and lightning.

Luke: (Yelling over the storm) We'd better find some shelter! (Pointing toward a rundown old farmhouse.) I think there's an old farm house that way!

Mischa: (Also yelling) You lead the way. I'm too scared!

Luke: (Grabbing her by the hand) It's going to be okay! Run with me!

Both children run to the old farmhouse holding each other's hand. When they make it there, they enter through an open window.

Scene Two

In the kitchen of the old farmhouse. There is an old dusty table and chairs, but everything else including the stove is gone. The windows are broken, the curtains tattered, and the wallpaper peeling. The wind is picking up and blowing through. The children are calming down. Mischa looks out the broken window where a large dead tree sits close to the house, while Luke sits at the old table. The sack of apples sits on the table.

Mischa: It's almost here Luke. The branches on the trees are swaying all over the place.

Luke: (Looking at the old tree through the window) Come away from the window Mischa. It's a really bad storm, that's for sure.

Mischa: (sitting down in the chair opposite Luke.) I think it's a tornado.

Luke: It's not a tornado, but those are some heavy winds.

The wind picks up and the curtains sway violently. Something smacks up against the side of the house.

Luke: What was that? It's picking up.

Mischa: Where are Mom and Dad? Why aren't they here to help us?

Luke: Never mind that. We need to worry about ourselves right now. I think we should go down to the ...

Suddenly, a tree branch hits the window smashing it even more than it was. Luke and Mischa scream.

Mischa: (Yelling) To the basement!

The children run toward the basement when Mischa stops and turns back.

Luke: (Still yelling) What are you doing? Come back!

Mischa: (Still yelling) The apples! I need to grab the apples!

Luke: Mischa no!

Mischa runs to grab the apples. She gets a hold of the sack and turns around toward the basement again. As she gets to the basement door, the old large tree snaps, cracks, and falls through the kitchen wall. She is okay, but shaken.

"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
