What tones are you required to choose from.


He had driven half the night
From far down San Joaquin
Through Mariposa, up the
Dangerous Mountain roads,
And pulled in at eight a.m.
With his big truckload of hay
behind the barn.
With winch and ropes and hooks
We stacked the bales up clean
To splintery redwood rafters
High in the dark, flecks of alfalfa
Whirling through shingle-cracks of light,
Itch of haydust in the
sweaty shirt and shoes.
At lunchtime under Black oak
Out in the hot corral,
— The old mare nosing lunchpails,
Grasshoppers crackling in the weeds —
"I'm sixty-eight," he said,
"I first bucked hay when I was seventeen.
I thought, that day I started,
I sure would hate to do this all my life.
And dammit, that's just what
I've gone and done."

Answer 7

Wait, are you writing something for this, cause if so, we aren't allowed to help.

Answer 8

Ok, now, what is the next passage?

Answer 9

The changing light
at San Francisco
is none of your East Coast light
none of your
pearly light of Paris
The light of San Francisco
is a sea light
an island light
And the light of fog
blanketing the hills
drifting in at night
through the Golden Gate
to lie on the city at dawn
And then the halcyon late mornings
after the fog burns off
and the sun paints white houses
with the sea light of Greece
with sharp clean shadows
making the town look like
it had just been painted

But the wind comes up at four o’clock
sweeping the hills

And then the veil of light of early evening

And then another scrim
when the new night fog
floats in
And in that vale of light
the city drifts
anchorless upon the ocean

Answer 10

I can help.

I helped students before with constructing essays and or paragraphs.

This is no different. Just don't rely on me for the whole answers.

Answer 11

Ah! Now, what moods are you said to choose from, or any mood?

Answer 12

Im not relying on whole answers I just need help cuz im not good at mood, tone, and theme. I can choose any mood, theme, and tone. I just cant find them.

Answer 13

Alright, the tone of the man in the passage, should give it all away.

Hint:

"I'm sixty-eight," he said, "I first bucked hay when I was seventeen. I thought, that day I started, I sure would hate to do this all my life. And dammit, that's just what I've gone and done."

Answer 14

Is he... Regretful? Maybe agitated? Upset on his lifestyle? Is he hinting that he dislikes his job at most?

Answer 15

I think based off that part he is regretting that he chose to continue doing his job instead of finding another.

Answer 16

Exactly.

His whole theme is to go after your heart. Listen to it, to be satisfied. He didn't go to find a new job, therefore he spent his life; doing something that he didn't want to do. Something that bounded him up. What mood is contracted?

Answer 17

ummm....i would say sadness/ regret.

Answer 18

Julian

Answer 19

??

Answer 20

Correct,

Answer 21

And he is frustrated with himself.

What shows this? Pull factual evidence to support this. Maybe how he curses?

Answer 22

Other words, his tone.

Answer 23

ohhhh see I didnt look at that one that way before

Answer 24

would the mood of the 2nd one be like ummmm.... happieness

Answer 25

Hmm, why happiness?

Answer 26

because it is describing a place and the way it describes it it sounds happy and pretty

Answer 27

Look back, how is it describing San F's. Lighting? Daunting? Maybe irregular??

Answer 28

Maybe how it is the light to guide others in the sea? Maybe it is the one attraction, in the depths of waters?

Answer 29

How it glows? How it stands tall? What shows this.

Answer 30

so maybe....ummm... eire?

Answer 31

with the sea light of Greece with sharp clean shadows making the town look like it had just been painted But the wind comes up at four o’clock sweeping the hills And then the veil of light of early evening And then another scrim when the new night fog floats in And in that vale of light the city drifts anchorless upon the ocean



Maybe mysterious? First it is portrayed as making something look vivid with color. Then it goes back to eerie. It's mysterious lighting, unlike any other mere lighting, goes shining over the steady, dark waters.


Happy and vivid at day, awake with wonder and eeriness at night. But lets elaborate it at night. Is it serene? Chilling serene wonders?

Answer 32

ya it is

Answer 33

So, we have the tone and mood, now, what is the theme?

Answer 34

ummm.... I am not sure

Answer 35

@MissSmartiez

Answer 36

Theme:

Maybe, just because you are different, doesn't mean you aren't a wonder. You can be irregular and the most mysterious lighting.

Evidence:The changing light at San Francisco is none of your East Coast light none of your pearly light of Paris The light of San Francisco is a sea light an island light And the light of fog blanketing the hills drifting in at night through the Golden Gate to lie on the city at dawn And then the halcyon late mornings

Then, the other half.

Answer 37

at the same time, the most beautiful lighting.

Answer 38

ohhhhhh okay makes sense now thank you!!!!

Answer 39
