July
by Susan Hartley Swett

When the scarlet cardinal tells
Her dream to the dragonfly,
And the lazy breeze makes a nest in the trees,
And murmurs a lullaby,
It's July.

When the tangled cobweb pulls
The cornflower's cap awry,
And the lilies tall lean over the wall
To bow to the butterfly,
It's July.

When the heat like a mist veil floats,
And poppies flame in the rye,
And the silver note in the streamlet's throat
Has softened almost to a sigh,
It's July.

When the hours are so still that time
Forgets them, and lets them lie
Underneath petals pink till the night stars wink
At the sunset in the sky,
It's July.

What do the noises that the speaker calls out—the lullaby the breeze murmurs and the soft sigh of the streamlet—represent in "July"?

A. the speaker's desire to break from the laziness of summer

B. the startling beauty of summer days

C. the peacefulness of the long, slow days of summer.

D. the intense heat of mid-summer days

Answer:

Explanation:

During the poem, it explains how every little thing is blooming slowly in summer. It also says, "When the hours are so still that time

Forgets them" this means that the time is going by very slowly so the days are long. While they explain about all of the nature it makes the poem peaceful. I also took the test and this is 100% correct.

Read the excerpt from "Egyptian Tombs: A Grave Matter.”

From the twenty-fifth century BCE, pharaohs’ tombs were located inside grand pyramids. The pyramids served as giant grave markers; however, they also served as treasure markers for grave robbers. These wicked people would strip the tombs bare of all valuables. Then they would sell the stolen items for a large amount of money. Stealing from the dead was bad enough, but for the ancient Egyptians, the act also threatened the pharaoh’s afterlife.

Based on the details in the excerpt, what conclusion can be drawn about the pharaohs of ancient Egypt?

They went to great lengths to ensure that their tombs were prepared for the afterlife by placing valuables inside.
They liked the pyramid shape, so they used it as a tomb.
They thought that giant grave markers would protect them against grave robbers.
They placed more emphasis on their current lives than on their afterlives.
