some questions from this poem below

If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill
Be a scrub in the valley--but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree.

If you can't be a bush be a bit of the grass,
And some highway some happier make;
If you can't be a muskie then just be a bass--
But the liveliest bass in the lake!

We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew,
There's something for all of us here.
There's big work to do and there's lesser to do,
And the task we must do is the near.

If you can't be a highway then just be a trail,
if you can't be the sun be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail--
Be the best of whatever you are!


1. 'It isn't by size that you win or you fail--
Be the best of whatever you are!'
What does 'size' mean here?
In what sense could we fail?
What does it mean to be the best of whatever you are?

2.In what way can grass make the highway happier?

3.Why is it reasonable to say we can't all be captains?

4. How does the poet show the importance of every kind of work?

Answer:

An acceleration can cause speed to increase, decrease, and even stay the same! Acceleration tells you the rate at which the velocity is changing. ... The acceleration can change the magnitude and/or the direction of the velocity. Speed is only the magnitude of the velocity
