Essay Question

Question: 
In your own words, describe the tone of "Women."  Identify the origins of the tone based on what you can infer about the life experience of the speaker.  How does the speaker communicate her attitude through her words?  Use at least two examples  from the poem to support your response.


Answer: 
The tone in the "Women" is kind of casual but have a really deep loving feeling inside. The speaker talks about what the women did and compare them to armies or generals on how strong the women are. The women have to do nearly all the house works, even hard works around the houses. The speaker looking at her mother's work, knows that the women back then have all the works to do. The speaker is at the desk with the books when the mother told to them to study. The speaker might be studying all the books, but the mother never know any herself, because she is too busy with her works to do so. The speaker's feelings are inside the poem when she describe the works and how strong the women are. Also, the last few sentences, where the speaker said things about how their mother does not know any of the books. It shows that the speaker knows how hard the works are for the women.
