As you search for the best focus and scope for an essay, you zoom in and out of an imaginary map of a topic. Choose a general topic and describe the “map” as it would look from a zoomed out and zoomed in perspective.

The topic i decided on was “success”  

Zoomed out : the first thing you think of when you think of success if usually money and/or fame

Zoomed in : you realize that the popular idea of success is just surface level. No one thinks about the struggles you go through to get there. No one thinks about the different types of success. For example, you can be poor but successful just as several Nobel Peace prize winners.

For this project, you will read poems written by the same author, William Carlos Williams. The two poems are similar, but each comes from a different collection of poems. Once you have read the examples, you will compare and contrast the poems to determine how they represent different perspectives of the poet. You may need to look up some of the words in the poem in a dictionary, that is okay!

BLIZZARD SPRING STORM
Snow:
years of anger following
hours that float idly down—
the blizzard
drifts its weight
deeper and deeper for three days
or sixty years, eh? Then
the sun! a clutter of
yellow and blue flakes—
Hairy looking trees stand out
in long alleys
over a wild solitude.
The man turns and there—
his solitary track stretched out
upon the world. The sky has given over
its bitterness.
Out of the dark change
all day long
rain falls and falls
as if it would never end.
Still the snow keeps
its hold on the ground.
But water, water
from a thousand runnels!
It collects swiftly,
dappled with black
cuts a way for itself
through green ice in the gutters.
Drop after drop it falls
from the withered grass-stems
of the overhanging embankment.

Answer:

I'm assuming the text is about Anne frank

Explanation:

Do you think you would have stayed sane in the attic for two years?

No not at all, I would of have been miserable,freighten, and terrified of what could happen if we were caught I would be scared and hungry. Staying in a attic for a long time would make me go insane and closterphobic. I would be malnourished and frail. I would constantly think what will it be like if we weren't targeted just cause of what we believe In.

Do you think you would have gotten along with everyone?

Yes,100 percent I would recognize these people as family and would know them each by name and know what their storys are and how they make me feel more relaxed and sincere since their with me on the same boat.
