Question 19 • *KCPS English Language Arts 11 (2027)

What does the first stanza of "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" suggest about the speaker’s view of religious customs?

Answer
A
She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.
B
She does not believe in creating religious customs.
C
She participates only in religious customs that relate to nature.
D
She finds religious customs to be tedious.

Explanation

The speaker contrasts people who go to church with her own way of keeping the Sabbath: she stays home with a bird as her “Chorister” and an orchard as her “Dome.” These images show that she observes the religious custom in an unconventional, nature-centered way. The best choice is “She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.”
