Asked by Ezra
Why, who makes much of a miracle?
As to me I know of nothing else but miracles,
Whether I walk the streets of Manhattan,
Or dart my sight over the roofs of houses toward the sky,
Or wade with naked feet along the beach just in the edge of the water,
Or stand under trees in the woods,
Or talk by day with any one I love…
Or sit at a table at dinner with the rest,
Or look at strangers opposite me riding in the car,
Or watch honey-bees busy around the hive of a summer forenoon,
Or animals feeding in the fields,
Or birds, or the wonderfulness of insects in the air,
Or the wonderfulness of the sundown, or of stars shining so quiet and bright,
Or the exquisite delicate thin curve of the new moon in spring;
These with the rest, one and all, are to me miracles,
The whole referring, yet each distinct and in its pace.
To me every hour of the light and dark is a miracle,
Every cubic inch of space is a miracle,
Every square yard of the surface of the earth is spread with the same,
Every foot of the interior swarms with the same.
To me the sea is a continual miracle,
The fishes that swim–the rocks–the motion of the waves–the ships with men in them,
What stranger miracles are there?
1. What is the most likely explanation for the poet’s ending “Miracles” with this line?
What stranger miracles are there?
A. He wishes to tell the reader that miracles are strange occurrences.

C. He wishes to encourage the reader to see everyday things and events as miracles.
D. He wishes to encourage the reader to think about the way in which the sea is a miracle. (I PICKED THIS ONE)
2. What is the main message of “Miracles”?
A. Cities have wondrous qualities.
B. The ocean is a mysterious essence.
C. Nature is wonderful.
D. All of life is wondrous. (I PICKED THIS ONE)
3. In which sentence does the world “distinct” make sense?
A. The assembly line produced a series of identical toys, each “distinct” from the next.
B. Because of the man’s “distinct” appearance, he easily got lost in the crowd.
C. The singer’s voice is so “distinct” that it blends in with every other singer’s voice.
D. There were many umbrellas in the foyer, but I recognized mine because it was “distinct”. (I PICKED THIS ONE)
Which object would most likely be describes as “exquisite”?
A. a delicate blossom (I PICKED THIS ONE)
B. a rough sketch
C. a rugged landscape
D. a prickly rosebud
Please tell me if an answer is wrong, thanks!
