(1)The sky was like a waterdrop
In shadow of a thorn,
Clear, tranquil, beautiful,
Dark, forlorn.

(5)Lightning along its margin ran;
A rumour of the sea
Rose in profundity and sank
Into infinity.

Lofty and few the elms, the stars
(10)In the vast boughs most bright;
I stood a dreamer in a dream
In the unstirring night.

Why is "dark, forlorn" (line 4) separated on a line by itself?

to emphasize the contrast between the characteristics of the waterdrop and the thorn
to enhance the meter of the poem
to create a stanza that has only four lines
to help with the visual aspect of the poem
to give a break in thought

How did Karl’s father react to the information from Fritz Dirks’?

The scientific study of amphibians and reptiles is known as herpetology. The name comes from the Greek root herpeton which means “creeping animal.” Those who study this field of biology are known as herpetologists, though they prefer to call themselves “herpers.” Modern herpetologists specialize in a particular field of study, and it is rare to find one who focuses on general herpetology. They find work in a variety of careers, such as field research, nature guides, professors, veterinarians, museum curators, and so on. Few universities offer degrees in herpetology, so it is a highly competitive and close-knit field.

Passage A:Passage B:
The fact is, bureaucracies are a problem around the world. There’s an old story about a town – it could be anywhere – with a bureaucrat who is known to be a good-for-nothing, but he somehow had always hung on to power. So one day, in a town meeting, an old woman got up and said to him: "There is a folk legend here where I come from that when a baby is born, an angel comes down from heaven and kisses it on one part of its body. If the angel kisses him on his hand, he becomes a handyman. If he kisses him on his forehead, he becomes bright and clever. And I’ve been trying to figure out where the angel kissed you so that you should sit there for so long and do nothing.”
