Quiz
Reading Quiz on “Two Countries” by Naomi Shihab Nye

For this quiz, answer question # 1 and 2 out of 3 questions from #2, #3, & #4

Reread the poem (posted on the course blog) to become familiar with it.

1)      Review these lines:

Skin had hope, that's what skin does.
Heals over the scarred place, makes a road.

What do you think these two lines mean? Offer an interpretation and back it up using
specific evidence in the poem.

In my opinion, I think this means you may hurt yourself, the hope means like you will move to other place,and many different countries people have different skin.
2)      What could skin be a  metaphor or symbol for?
 skin can means people's feeling, may like your skin miss the country, and you need to stay with the people who have the different skin.


4)      Based on what you know about the poet, what is the significance of the line "Love

means you breathe in two countries"?

Love may means you stay with other people
