Read the excerpt from cristina garcia’s dreaming in cuban.
“lourdes, i’m back,” jorge del pino greets his daughter forty days after she buried him with his panama hat, his cigars, and a bouquet of violets in a cemetery on the border of brooklyn and queens.
his words are warm and close as a breath. lourdes turns, expecting to find her father at her shoulder but she sees only the dusk settling on the tops of the oak trees, the pink tinge of sliding darkness.
“don’t be afraid, mi hija. just keep walking and i’ll explain,” jorge del pino tells his daughter.
the sunset flares behind a row of brownstones linking them as if by a flaming ribbon.
which best identifies the magic realism found in the excerpt?
a. lourdes’s father returning to her from the dead
b. the list of items lourdes buried with her father
c. the dusk settling on the tops of the trees
d. the flaring sunset behind the brownstones

In this excerpt from "dover beach" by matthew arnold, which two lines or sets of lines suggest that the speaker has undergone a loss of faith? the sea of faith was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled. but now i only hear its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar, retreating, to the breath of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear and naked shingles of the world. ah, love, let us be true to one another! for the world, which seems to lie before us like a land of dreams, so various, so beautiful, so new, hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, nor certitude, nor peace, nor for pain; and we are here as on a darkling plain swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, where ignorant armies clash by night.
