на русском:
Как вы, вероятно, знаете, Маргарет Уокер была афроамериканкой, и ее поэма относится к силе и выносливости ее предков женского пола, которые были рабами.
- Они коснулись земли, и зерно выросло."
В предыдущей строке говорится, что они сеяли семена на вспаханном поле. Очевидно, они сеяли семена вручную (не с машин), поэтому их руки приближались к земле и даже касались земли (земля здесь означает почву, а не планету Земля), и из этих семян зерно росло в полях.
-У них есть много чистых слов, чтобы сказать."
Их мысли и слова были чисты. Они не говорили плохо о людях и не использовали плохие слова.
на английском:
As you probably know, Margaret Walker was African-American, and her poem refers to the strength and endurance of her female ancestors who were slaves.
"They touched the ground, and the grain grew."
The previous line says that they sowed seeds in a plowed field. Obviously, they sowed seeds manually (not using machines), so their hands came close to the ground and even touched the ground (earth here means soil, not planet Earth), and from these seeds the grain grew in the fields.
"They have a lot of clean words to say."
Their thoughts and words were pure. They didn't say bad things about people or use bad words.
I like staying home alone. I like it when I'm good at something. I like riding a bike all day. I love my family. I like playing with my younger brother. I like travelling. I like feeling free and not alone.
And here's what I don't like.
I don't like a lot of homework because I don't have time to do all of it. I don't like when mom gets mad because I don't like seeing her upset. I don't like when it rains because the rain spoils all my plans. I don't like when I can't do anything.
And there's still a lot of what I like and don't like, but what I like much more.
