<p>van_sant you can link me to the poem?</p>
<p>Yes, exactly. They WERE there, but were going to leave pretty soon. But they were there...</p>
<p>Link me to the poem please? :)</p>
<p>I think the answer to the onlooker question was actually Joe. There weren't any onlookers in the story. This is told in third person omniscient so it makes sense if those were Joe's thoughts.</p>
<p>Stanza 1: wheat changes into gold
Stanza 2: "Like nothing that was ever bought or sold" I interpret that to mean it's beyond the level of gold
Stanza 3: Wheat is suddenly cut down, might leave at any moment. </p>
<p>Also, wasn't the poem in 2 stanzas in the test? Wasn't there a question on it? What did people put for that?</p>
<p>i remember lolcats the question
but i dont remember the answer</p>
<p>terrible grammar haha sorry</p>
<p>I think wind causes wheat crops to flatten and get ruined, so the shadow of the wind was basically saying the threat of the wind is no longer looming upon them.</p>
<p>for the wind, I thought it's shadow was referring to the physical effect it had on the wheat (moving) it </p>
<p>also, for onlooker: "She spoke with a mild stiffness. Either she was a little disturbed, or his nervousness affected her, and made her seem constrained in her effort to reassure him. "</p>
<p>I think that is from an observer's point of view</p>
<p>wow. lolcats, my apologies for being so careless. i should have gotten all the questions wrong for that stupid misunderstanding, but luckily its only one so far...and i got your answer for the wind one, too</p>
<p>Yeah, because the shadows are said to roll. So that makes me think it's a physical effect</p>
<p>wait. was that the answer choice with the word "invisible"? maybe not. oh well. damn rural references. im going to try to pass off this stumble as something that hasnt been part ofmy experience (city all my life)...even though that of course is really lame</p>
<p>"She spoke with a mild stiffness. Either she was a little disturbed, or his nervousness affected her, and made her seem constrained in her effort to reassure him. "</p>
<p>This came up in the SAT's too. Since this story is third person omniscient, I think more than ever that it's from Joe's POV since that sentence is personalized to him (using "his" and "him"). However, observer would also be valid if there were observers/College Board accepts that an analyzing observer would inherently be in all stories. It would obviously be an observer (if observer is a valid choice) if it said "Joe's nervousness affected her" or something to that extent but here it's a bit ambiguous.</p>
<p>waait
so for the shadow of wind question
wahts the answer?
invisible something..</p>
<p>marimare, thats interesting. sort of an unnatural thought though, is my nervousness affecting her? but thats valid</p>
<p>For shadows of wheat, I put that the threat of destruction via wind had passed ("rolled by"). Invisible force bending the wheat is another possible answer...I think I was thinking too much into it ^^;</p>
<p>Van<em>sant, that's how I always think when I come across those type of sentences, lol </em></p>
<p>I put that the wind was pressing the wheat, which would create/move shadows (also shadows are a visible characteristic of an otherwise invisible force) Yes the answer choice I chose had invisible. </p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that he wasn't viewing himself in that line. That seems very unintuitive. I could be wrong though =/ If so add that to the stupid dragon tooth one lol</p>
<p>another answer:</p>
<p>mention of the horse shows the man's country'ness' right?</p>
<p>I just got back from taking the test a couple hours ago, and I just didn't understand the last passage at all. Ended up skipping like 3 or 4 of the questions about it. Having 5 minutes left when I started the passage didn't really help much.</p>
