Read the excerpt from This Land Was Made for You and Me. Just after New Year’s Day in 1940, Woody set off on one of his unannounced road trips. He left his wife and three kids in a shack in Texas and headed for New York City. It was a long, cold trip in the dead of winter, and every time he stopped in a diner he heard Irving Berlin’s lush, sentimental song, “God Bless America,” on the jukebox. It was exactly the kind of song Woody couldn’t stand, romanticizing America, telling people not to worry, that God would take care of everything. The author illustrates the connection between Guthrie’s life and his music by explaining that Guthrie was not motivated to write music about his family or Texas. the song "God Bless America" convinced Guthrie that his family would be fine without him. the message Guthrie heard in "God Bless America" contrasted with what he was going through. Guthrie did not worry about things and did not write songs about the concept of worry.

The message Guthrie heard in "God Bless America" contrasted with what he was going through
Explanation:(There's your answer) ( Hope I helped)
The author illustrates the connection between Guthrie's life and his music by explaining that the message Guthrie heard in "God Bless America" contrasted with what he was going through.
What is the meaning of This Land Is Your Land by Woody Guthrie?It then wonders whether America is truly "built for you and me" in light of the reality of hunger and poverty in the original version after describing the singer's unwillingness to recognise someone's designation of land as private property. The song has a lengthy, peculiar past. For the original song, which extols the beauty of America, Guthrie, a homeless busker and political activist, modified the tune of a hymn written by the Carter family.
Nonetheless, despite honouring the "redwood forest" and "Gulf Stream waters" of America, the song delves deeper into uncertainty in its latter lyrics. Because the political establishment did not share Guthrie's viewpoint, this made the song an even more essential depiction of an America that few were ready to accept.

why does joger throw stomes around henry but never at him
Answer: Roger throws rocks around Henry because of his "superego" insists that he doesn't throw the rocks at Henry. He throws the rocks due to their being no parental authority telling him not to, but he himself doesn't hit Henry with the rocks because that isn't how Roger grew up to behave as when he was learning as a child.
In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.
Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall.
The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.
As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization.
In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.
The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.

Read this excerpt from White Fang.
For a moment [White Fang] was paralysed. The unknown, lurking in the midst of the sticks and moss, was savagely clutching him by the nose. He scrambled backward, bursting out in an astonished explosion of ki-yi's. At the sound, Kiche leaped snarling to the end of her stick, and there raged terribly because she could not come to his aid. But Grey Beaver laughed loudly, and slapped his thighs, and told the happening to all the rest of the camp, till everybody was laughing uproariously. But White Fang sat on his haunches and ki-yi'd and ki-yi'd, a forlorn and pitiable little figure in the midst of the man-animals.

The Whispers
By: Cloudy Dreams (me)
There once was a house that sat on top of a hill
The house was made of brick and steel
There was a little boy that lived in the house
He cried and screamed the people thought he saw a mouse
The whispers he hears makes him run away
Deep into the woods into a lake
He’s parents searched and searched but they never found a trace just a torn piece of paper that flew away
The paper had words “whispers” on the back but no one knew what it ment
They heard a boy scream and the parents were shocked. The mother screamed “not my baby I am shocked, come for me instead and save him for last please take me eat everyone last!”
The whispers heard and came to the mother driving her crazy
It just jumps from one another the father is scared to the bone
He’s leg are shaking to another zone
A zone not made for people not even demons or angels
Maybe for a god the father was frightened even more and ran to the boy and he had a smell
He saw the boy then he looked away the whispers came back the father just laid unable to move
He yelled “Charlie Charlie run away get out the water it’s here to take”
Charlie was scared so he looked away
He’s father cried “Come here” but it was to late
Charlie shed a tear getting pulled under the lake
The father yelled and said “Charlie why didn’t you listen..”
Charlie is gone and so is the mother, the father is left alone should he form an alliance?
Do a deal with the devil?, trade a life for another?, or should he live alone?
Not soon after the whispers come back more hungry than ever
A bit more violent than that they searched for people who had a certain smell
The smell of lilac
And yes this is true the whole town died because of you
You were the whispers and always have been
You killed a town now you must pay the price
And turn yourself in
Or give your life for life
If you don’t...the whispers will come for you!
And end your life with a boo!

This would teach me to be more respectful to my parents and to understand what they did for me. I wouldn't really like it, but I'd understand my obligations. I'd have grown up to be a respectful, honest, and hard-working person. This sounds terrible to go through, but to build character, it's pretty good.
