Please don't mind if the poem isn't that good . It will contain the requirements. I will use free-verse btw.
Answer:Topic: Winter
The freezing chills of odd winter's day,
Oh, the quite queer breeze of the soft snowflakes,
The poor beggars living on the streets in frost!
Would winter be so cruel?
The winter leaves the fire with no choice:
Dancing flames, Sparkling in the dark, Touching upon the cold frost.
Would winter be so ever exhausting?
"Take out the gloves, coats, hats. Say goodbye to the common summer mishaps," the people cry.
For it reminds and touches the heart which would not stop beating-
Soft landing flakes, quiet as though it thought itself as a mouse.
Bodies of water shiver and shake,
Freezing and thawing, the old waters take.
For every winter, it signals the start of a chilling break.

PLEASE I AM TIMED Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective."
Diane made a rubber silicone mold of the impression. Then, she made a sturdy wax cast of the mold and sent it to a metalworks company. The foundry workers coated the wax mold with plaster and put it in an industrial oven. The wax melted off, leaving a plaster shell. The workers poured melted bronze into the shell, and the metal cooled and hardened into a bronze tiger tongue.
Diane’s casts of the tongue and paw allowed zoo visitors to share her amazing experience. People felt the roughness of the big cat’s tongue and spread a hand inside the palm of its giant paw. This, she decided, was one of the coolest things I have ever done. She savored the moment, knowing that far graver matters were always just a phone call away.

An open space on the street
snapped him out of his thoughts
and back to the wheel.
He sped up a little
and moved close to the curb,
pulling ahead of the space.
Just as he shifted his car
in reverse, a flash
swooped in from behind
and took from Square
what the morning had offered.
Out hopped Triangle
from his truck, whistling, his point
gleaming in the sun. Square fumed
and each of his corners
turned pepper red.

Read the story below and find three details that point to the main idea.
The Ants were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime. A Grasshopper, perishing with famine, passed by and earnestly begged for a little food. The Ants inquired of him, "Why did you not treasure up food during the summer?' He replied, "I had not leisure enough. I passed the days in singing." They then said in derision, "If you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."
Main idea: It is important to prepare today for the needs of tomorrow.
Answer:
1st: "'If you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter.'"
2nd: "...perishing with famine..."
3rd: "'I passed the days in singing.'"

Read the sonnet.
Sonnet XII
by William Shakespeare
When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls all silvered o'er with white;
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
And summer's green all girded up in sheaves
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard,
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;
And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.

It informs readers that the last two rhyming words are the most important.
It makes readers focus on the conclusion and the author's message.
It causes readers to change their speaking tone when reading aloud.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
After yet another horrible practice, I felt like quitting. Maybe I just wasn’t cut out to be a figure skater? The toe loops and salchows and loops and lutzes just made me feel like a klutz! I stormed into the locker room and started unlacing my skates with ferocity.
My coach seemed to be able to tell I was getting frustrated and sat down to help me out of the skates.
“Whitney, I noticed you were having a hard time with that axel jump. I could help you practice a bit more outside of class,” Brooke said, as we unlaced.
“You don’t have to sugarcoat it for me, Brooke,” I responded. “Just admit that I’m awful at skating. I’m hanging up my skates for good.”
“Actually, I think you’re very talented. You just need some work,” she said. “Becoming a figure skater is more than just a notion. I fell, hurt myself, and quit a hundred times before I made it to the Olympics trials.”
“Why’d you keep getting up and dusting yourself off? I mean, how did you know that this is what you were born to do?” I asked shyly.
“The first time I ever laced up a pair of skates I was six years old. I stepped onto the ice and promptly fell on my bum,” Brooke laughed. “I didn’t really get interested in skating as a career until I saw Kristi Yamaguchi in the 1992 Olympics. Right then, I knew I was going to have a life-long love affair with skating.”
“Didn’t it take a lot of training to get to the professional level? We only practice four days a week, and I’m so sore I can barely move,” I said.
“It was a lot of hard work, but I didn’t mind. Nothing I had ever done up until then seemed so. . . right,” Brooke said. “I believe that you’re a gifted skater, but you have to believe in yourself and have a passion for the sport. That’s the only thing that will sustain you through all the bumps and bruises.”
I took in Brooke’s words carefully. Even though an injury had ended her skating career shortly after she won the Bronze in the Olympics, she still devoted her time to teaching us to skate. For free. Do I have that kind of passion and commitment? I thought.
“Let me know if you decide you want some extra help,” Brooke gave me a half hug and waved goodbye as she grabbed her bag to leave. “My mornings are always free,” she said with a smile.
"Thanks, Brooke. You’re the best,” I said.
As I shoved all my things in my bag and headed out to my mom’s car, I started to think about my last competition. Brooke was right— nothing compared to the feeling of going into a jump and knowing that you were going to nail it.
“Hey Babycakes, how was practice?” Mom said after I closed my car door.
“It wasn’t that great,” I admitted. “But do you think you could bring me to practice some mornings?”
Which statement from the passage shows that Whitney has the instincts of a skater?
A.
"Just admit that I'm awful at skating. I'm hanging up my skates for good."
B.
"We only practice four days a week, and I'm so sore I can barely move."
C.
"It was a lot of hard work, but I didn't mind. Nothing I had ever done up until then seemed so . . . right."
D.
". . . nothing compared to the feeling of going into a jump and knowing that you were going to nail it."

They were in very deed men and women of sorrow, and acquainted with grief. Their backs had been made familiar with the bloody lash, so that they had become callous; mine was yet tender; for while at Baltimore, I got few whippings, and few slaves could boast of a kinder master and mistress than myself; . . .

Answer:
He is the best cook in town, and I love to have dinner at their place! - A) Immature Writing
Because he has unrivaled skills in the kitchen, there is nowhere I would rather consume my food than their dinner table. - B) Mature Writing

Explanation:
-The first sentence is an example of immature writing. It is written in a simplistic and flat style. This is more typical of immature writing.
-The second sentence is an example of mature writing. This is where the author uses the proper synonyms and adjectives to give the message showing depth and a good use of vocabulary.
