Read the passage. Then answer the questions below:
The worst days of any summer are the rainy ones. We spend all year looking forward to nice weather and long, hot days. All of
winter, with its dreary grey days and bitter cold, we dream of those endless days at the beach, laying on the sand and soaking in
the bright and burning sun. And then, summer comes, and it rains.
As a child, I would wake up to rainy summer days and come close to crying. lt wasn't fair. We suffered through months of school
and miserable weather for those scant ten weeks of freedom and balmy weather. Any day that I could not spend at the beach or
playing ball with my friends seemed like a punishment for something I didn't even do.
i On those rainy summer days, I had nothing fun to do and could only sit inside, staring out at the rain like a Dickensian orphan. I
was an only child, so there was no one else to play with. My father worked from home, so I was not truly alone, but he could not
i actively play with me since he was technically at work. lt was those days that I would resign myself to whatever was on television
or any books that I could find lying around. ld crawl through the day and pray each night that the rain would not be there the
next day.
. As an adult, though, my opinion of summer rain has changed. When you have to work every day, summer is not as eagerly
anticipated. Mostly, the days run together, bleeding into each other so that they no longer seem like separate entities and
instead feel like continuations of the same long day. Everything seems monotonous and dull, and an ennui or listlessness kicks
in. Such a mind-set makes you cheer for anything new or different. I spend the winter dreaming of summer and the summer
dreaming of winter. When summer comes, I complain about how hot it is. And then I look forward to the rain, because the rain
brings with it a cold front, which offers a reprieve - admittedly one that is all too short - from the torture of 100" and humid days.
Rainy days are still the worst days of the summer, but summer rain today means positively beautiful - and considerably cooler
weather tomorrow.
26. The passage makes use of language that is

A. metaphorical
B. rhetorical
C. formal
D. ambiguous

A Streetcar Named Desire - Passage 1 A Streetcar Named Desire is a classic of the American theatre. Tennessee Williams'
landmark work was tour de force in its original stage production in 1 947 and continues to resonate with audiences and readers
a
today despite-or perhaps because of-its simplistic though layered story. A faded Southern belle, Blanche DuBois, arrives at
her sister's seedy New Orleans apartment where she is tortured by her brutish brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski. Blanche puts on
airs of class and happiness throughout the play, though internally she is miserable and haunted by her tragic and scandalous
past. Stanley forces Blanche to face her dolorous reality with his vitrioi and, finally, his act of sexual aggression, and in doing so,
he causes her to lose her tenuous grip on sanity. Most have argued (correctly) that the play is about the ways the past haunts our
present or (again correctly) that it is about the ways class and sexuality impact our lives. However, few have seen the play for
what it is: an allegory for the theatre itself.
'l
Before Williams wrote Streetcar, the theatre had been dominated by melodrama. A brief interlude in the 930s brought political
theatre to centre stage (pardon the pun), but by the 1940s, its principal playwright, Clifford Odets, had left NewYork for
Hollywood, and the sensationalized and maudlin form of melodrama once again flourished. The theatre was in iimbo, and
Williams had a desire to bring something new to the world. lt would bring the realism of the politicaltheatre of the t930s but
without the political (read: socialist) underpinnings. To that end, he created lifelike characters who spoke in realistic dialect.
But to make his point that melodrama was flawed, he added an equally unrealistic character. Blanche, unlike the other
characters, speaks theatrically, acts larger than life on stage, and uses floral language and heightened mannerisms. Blanche is a
character not to be trusted. She lies about everything, and the only thing that finally exposes her lies is reality itseif: Stanley. He
finally forces her off the stage and into the insane asylum by forcing himseif on her sexually. And with ihai, realism forcibiy
removed melodrama from the stage.
