"My Name" by Sandra Cisneros-Close Read Questions According to Chinese Zodiac, these are common traits of people born during the Year of the Horse: stubborn, independent—don't take advice, social, and clever. Where in the story does the narrator show these traits?

Answer:

"My Name" by Sandra Cisneros

The narrator showed these traits of the horse: "stubborn, independent—don't take advice, social, and clever," where:

she indicated her willingness to "baptize" herself in a new name.

Explanation:

Quoting the narrator, she said: "I would like to baptize myself under

a new name, a name more like the real me, the one nobody sees."  This shows that she has an interior that is not exterior.  The real "she" is not revealed.  And that real "she" is "stubborn, independent—don't take advice, social, and clever."  This writing titled, "My Name from the House on Mango Street" by Sandra Cisneros, shows that names are important in the lives of the bearers.  They should be chosen carefully.  It is more spiritual than physical, and must be chosen to reflect spiritual aspirations.

Worldwide whale hunting has caused the number of whales on Earth to drop sharply. However, in recent years, some concerned people have been trying to do things to protect these beautiful creatures. These people have been working to convince lawmakers to ban whale hunting in many places. They are especially focusing on Japan, trying to convince them to end their annual whale hunt in the Southern and Pacific Oceans. Another solution is to establish sanctuaries to increase whale populations. Sanctuaries are areas of safety, and are off-limits to whale hunters. Sanctuaries allow whales to breed, feed, and regrow their populations.

But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?


It is the east and Juliet is the sun!


Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,


Who is already sick and pale with grief


That thou her maid art far more fair than she.


Be not her maid, since she is envious;


Her vestal livery is but sick and green,


And none but fools do wear it. Cast it off.


It is my lady, O, it is my love!


O that she knew she were!


She speaks, yet she says nothing; what of that?


Her eye discourses, I will answer it.


I am too bold: 'tis not to me she speaks.


Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,


Having some business, do entreat her eyes


To twinkle in their spheres till they return.


What if her eyes were there, they in her head?


The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,


As daylight doth a lamp. Her eyes in heaven


Would through the airy region stream so bright


That birds would sing and think it were not night.


See how she leans her cheek upon her hand


O that I were a glove upon that hand,


That I might touch that cheek!

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, excerpt
By Mark Twain

When Tom awoke in the morning, he wondered where he was. He sat up and rubbed his eyes and looked around. Then he comprehended. It was the cool gray dawn, and there was a delicious sense of repose and peace in the deep pervading calm and silence of the woods. Not a leaf stirred; not a sound obtruded [interrupted] upon great Nature's meditation. Beaded dewdrops stood upon the leaves and grasses. A white layer of ashes covered the fire, and a thin blue breath of smoke rose straight into the air. Joe and Huck still slept.

Now, far away in the woods a bird called; another answered; presently the hammering of a woodpecker was heard. Gradually the cool dim gray of the morning whitened, and as gradually sounds multiplied and life manifested itself. The marvel of Nature shaking off sleep and going to work unfolded itself to the musing boy. A little green worm came crawling over a dewy leaf, lifting two-thirds of his body into the air from time to time and "sniffing around," then proceeding again—for he was measuring, Tom said; and when the worm approached him, of its own accord, he sat as still as a stone, with his hopes rising and falling, by turns, as the creature still came toward him or seemed inclined to go elsewhere; and when at last it considered a painful moment with its curved body in the air and then came decisively down upon Tom's leg and began a journey over him, his whole heart was glad .... Now a procession of ants appeared, from nowhere in particular, and went about their labors; one struggled manfully by with a dead spider five times as big as itself in its arms, and lugged it straight up a tree-trunk. A brown spotted lady-bug climbed the dizzy height of a grass blade, and Tom bent down close to it and said, "Lady-bug, lady-bug, fly away home, your house is on fire, your children's alone," and she took wing and went off to see about it—which did not surprise the boy, for he knew of old that this insect was credulous [trusting] about conflagrations [fires], and he had practised upon its simplicity more than once. A tumblebug came next, heaving sturdily at its ball, and Tom touched the creature, to see it shut its legs against its body and pretend to be dead. The birds were fairly rioting by this time. A catbird, the Northern mocker, lit in a tree over Tom's head, and trilled out her imitations of her neighbors in a rapture of enjoyment; then a shrill jay swept down, a flash of blue flame, and stopped on a twig almost within the boy's reach, cocked his head to one side and eyed the strangers with a consuming curiosity; a gray squirrel and a big fellow of the "fox" kind came skurrying along, sitting up at intervals to inspect and chatter at the boys, for the wild things had probably never seen a human being before and scarcely knew whether to be afraid or not. All Nature was wide awake and stirring, now; long lances of sunlight pierced down through the dense foliage far and near, and a few butterflies came fluttering upon the scene.
