Explanation:
Read this excerpt from the poem and explain whether Ferlinghetti is proud of America’s achievements as a new empire. Provide reasons for your answer.
Why are you staring at me
as if I were America itself
the new Empire
vaster than any in ancient days
with its electronic highways
carrying its corporate monoculture
around the world
And English the Latin of our days—
Answer:
In this excerpt Ferlinghetti is not proud of new America.
Explanation:
Ferlinghetti's way of referring to the new America shows us that he is not proud.
There is much irony in his words when he speaks of "the vast empire carrying its corporate monoculture around the world."
The new America is more technological than with values and that is what is criticized in this excerpt.
Even if we search the full text we can see how Ferlinghetti talks about "to save us from ourselves and how to survive our own rulers".
So we can conclude that he is not proud of New America.
Answer:
Ferlinghetti believes the new America that is ruled by corporations is not the true America. Instead, he ironically speaks of a "new Empire" that is "vaster" but not greater than past empires. Ferlinghetti suggests that the new American empire has technological ("electronic highways") and economic ("corporate") power. But it does not have a culture of any worth or value ("carrying its corporate monoculture/ around the world"). As a result, American society is lost. This is why Ferlinghetti asks the Sybil to "save" the American people:
And tell us how to save us from ourselves
and how to survive our own rulers
who would make a plutocracy of our democracy
He also asks the Sybil to awaken Americans by speaking in a "poet’s voice" and asks her to reinvigorate America’s culture:
the voice of the people mixed
with a wild soft laughter—
And give us new dreams to dream,
Give us new myths to live by!

in Elizabethan England, far more so
than in the modern world. A flock of 180 sheep is worth
more than the average detached house. The difficulties of
transportation mean that the food supply depends
heavily on what grows locally and how much surplus is
available. It also depends on the season. Harvest is
obviously a time of much grain and fruit.

What does the word transfixed mean in the context of this paragraph? fascinated crying helpless laughing
Answer:
Fascinated
Explanation:
When you're "transfixed", you're highly fascinated by something.
The word transfixed means "Fascinated". When we are "transfixed", we are highly fascinated by something.
A transfix is a discontinuous affix that is added to a word root in linguistic morphology, such as in root-and-pattern systems seen in many Semitic languages.
A discontinuous affix is an affix whose phonetic components are dispersed between or around the phones that make up the root and are not sequentially arranged within a word. While single consonant, bilateral, and quadriliteral roots do exist, they are less common than the three-consonant abstract sequence that serves as the word root.
Transfixes are inserted into these roots at predetermined locations, determined by templates linked to the precise meaning of a particular inflection or derivation.

Read "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" and answer the question.
[1] I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5] Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10] Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15] A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20] In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
What happens in the first stanza?
The poet describes a time that he felt lonely and came upon a field of daffodils.
The poet ponders the meaning of life and the challenges and joys of the hills and valleys.
The poet reflects on a moment when he realized that nature could be gentle or harsh.
The poet sees an amazing view from the mountaintops he has just finished climbing.
Answer:
1 the speaker emotions
2 This is a forecasting of the line about solitude. A cloud high in the sky is a symbol of solitude and possible being lonely.
3 people dance when they are happy. dancing is usually an expression of joy and happiness. The poem says that the dancing flowers outdid the even the waves in glee. Glee expresses happiness. The poem goes on to say that poet could not help but also be happy in the company of the dancing flowers.
* The last stanza summarizing the poem.. The line about solitude echoes the the beginning of the simile of a lonely cloud. The inward eye reflects the memory of the joy and beauty seen in the dancing daffodils. The line about not realizing the wealth brought by the image is brought to meaning in the last stanza. The line about bliss repeats that lines about the Poet being gay because his sharing of the beauty of the flowers.

At the Aquarium
by Max Eastman
Serene the silver fishes glide,
Stern-lipped, and pale, and wonder-eyed!
As through the aged deeps of ocean,
They glide with wan and wavy motion.
They have no pathway where they go,
They flow like water to and fro,
They watch with never-winking eyes,
They watch with staring, cold surprise,
The level people in the air,
The people peering, peering there:
Who wander also to and fro,
And know not why or where they go,
Yet have a wonder in their eyes,
Sometimes a pale and cold surprise.
