analyzing how the author’s choices to include flashback and foreshadowing impact
the reader.

O to emphasize the tension between Bilbo and his
relatives
Angelica Baggins had considered not attending the
party, but curiosity got the better of her. When she
arrived, Bilbo himself presented her with a gift, an
intricate gold bracelet. Angelica nodded haughtily at
Bilbo and strolled into the party without so much as a
"thank you." While the other hobbits praised Bilbo's
lavish gifts, Angelica seethed inwardly. The bracelet
was insignificant when compared with the inheritance
that Bilbo planned to bestow on Frodo. Angelica
deserved more-much more.
O to reveal more about Frodo's relationship with Bilbo
O to convey the message that generosity strengthens
relationships
O to create an upbeat and celebratory mood

Fathers and Angels
Wes stared back at me after I'd asked my question, letting a moment pass and a smirk flicker across his
face before responding.
-1 really haven't thought too deeply about his impact on my life because, really, he didn't have one."
Wes leaned back in his seat and threw an even stare at me.
"Come on, man," I pressed on. "You don't think about how things would have been different if he'd been
there? If he cared enough to be there?"
"No, I don't. The lower half of his face was shrouded by the long beard that he'd grown, an outward sign
of the Islamic faith he'd adopted in prison. His eyes danced with bemusement. He was not moved by my
emotional questioning. "Listen," he went on. "Your father wasn't there because he couldn't be, my father
wasn't there because he chose not to be. We're going to mourn their absence in different ways."
This was one of our first visits. I had driven a half hour from my Baltimore home into the woody hills of
central Maryland to Jessup Correctional Institution to see Wes. Immediately upon entering the building,
was sternly questioned by an armed guard and searched to ensure I wasn't bringing in anything that
could be passed on to Wes. Once I was cleared, another guard escorted me to a large room that
reminded me of a public school cafeteria. This was the secured area where prisoners and their visitors
came together. Armed guards systematically paced around the room. Long tables with low metal dividers
separating the visitors from the visited were the only furnishings. The prisoners were marched in dressed
in orange or blue jumpsuits, or gray sweat suits with "DOC" emblazoned across the chests. The uniforms
reinforced the myriad other signals around us: the prisoners were owned by the state. Lucky inmates
were allowed to sit across regular tables from loved ones. They could exchange an initial hug and then
talk face-to-face. The rest had to talk to their families and friends through bulletproof glass using a
telephone, visitor and prisoner connected by receivers they held tight to their ears
Just as I was about to ask another question, Wes interrupted me.
"Let me ask you a question. You come here and ask me all these questions, but you haven't shared any of
yourself up with me. So tell me what impact did your father not being there have on your childhood?"
"I don't know-"I was about to say more when I realized that I didn't really have more to say
"Do you miss him?" he asked me.
"Every day. All the time." I replied softly, I was having trouble finding my voice. It always amazed me how
could love so deeply, so intensely, someone I barely knew. I was taught to remember, but never question.
Wes was taught to forget, and never ask why. We learned our lessons well and were showing them of to a
tee We sat there just a few feet from each other, both silent, pondering an absence.

Read the excerpt from Votes for Women:

Taking a more aggressive approach to women's suffrage was arguably more impactful in the short term. Alice Paul learned how to use this aggressive approach in England and brought it to the United States. For a while, she held a leadership position with the National American Woman Suffrage Association. She helped organize the March on Washington held on March 2, 1913, the day before President Wilson's inauguration. The parade was led by a human rights lawyer riding a white horse, and behind her women marched in costumes reflecting the nations that had already given women the vote. Multiple floats, bands, brigades, and costumed women paraded on through Washington, D.C. However, during the parade of protest, some men attacked the women and behaved poorly, and the police did nothing to stop it. The actions of the men led to an inquiry, which brought women's suffrage significant public awareness. However, some women did not agree with Paul's methods. Paul ultimately formed a separate group, which became known as the National Woman's Party. This group of women held marches and hunger strikes. They were also the first organization to organize a picket of the White House in January 1917. While their choice to picket during World War I angered some, their methods did make an impact and paved the way for women's suffrage to become law.

Both peaceful and aggressive approaches contributed to the ratification of the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920. On November 2, women across the nation voted, which marked the beginning of the ongoing struggle to reform the rights of women in the United States.
