The following quote is an example of what element of poetry: "And yet, I
warrant, it had upon its brow a bump as big as a young cockerel's stone." *
•metaphor
•simile
•personification
•hyperbole

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Simile.

Explanation:

A simile is when a direct comparison is made between dissimilar things using "like" or "as". This literary technique is used to provide a more detailed and understandable description of the concerned elements/things.

The given quote is from Act I scene iii of William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". Spoken by the Nurse, the quote is from when the Nurse revealed to Lady Capulet about Juliet's childhood incident where she had fallen and hit her forehead. This resulted in a big bump on the forehead, which the Nurse admits is "a bump as big as a young cockerel's stone." The use of the comparison word "as" makes it a simile, where the bump is compared to a rooster's testicle.

Thus, the correct answer is a simile.

Discuss how Edwin Arlington Robinson's use of language and imagery affects the meaning of "Aunt
Imogen." Cite evidence from the poem to support your position. Your response should be at least two
hundred words.
Click here to access the text of the poem.

Answers

Answer:

The use of language and imagery that Edwin Arlington Robinson uses in his poem "Aunt Imogen" helps to create and shape the tone of the poem and add a deeper meaning. One example of imagery would be " That looked across the fields; and Imogen / Gazed out with a girl’s gladness in her eyes, / Happy to know that she was back once more / Where there were those who knew her, and at last / Had gloriously got away again." The language and descriptions that Robinson gives of this particular moment create a sense of wonder and happiness. It shows Aunt Imogen as being joyful and content, enjoying the view from the window and having fun. The language he uses also eludes to a beautiful view, giving the audience a sense of what it must be like to look out of that window. Robinson as uses imagery and language to show some of the more serious aspects of the poem, such as Aunt Imogen's internal struggles. " There was the feminine paradox—that she / Who had so little sunshine for herself / Should have so much for others. How it was / That she could make, and feel for making it, / So much of joy for them, and all along / Be covering, like a scar, and while she smiled" This description shows that Aunt Imogen is more than just a simple woman and that she has struggles of her own. This description changes the way that the audience and readers view the character of Aunt Imogen.

Edwin Arlington Rovinson, in his poem "Aunt Imogen" uses a soft and rhythmic language, full of tenderness and romanticism to transport us to the scene in which while Aunt Imogen holds the small child in his arms, cross her mind the conflicts between the loneliness in which she is installed and the hours of joy and affection that she is obliged to give to her sister's children in the few hours she will share with them.

Aunt Imogen is in a situation of conflict, but she is silent and leaves behind the bad moment with a teaching for herself, with reasonings that places her and helps her to continue, without harming anyone, without putting her needs before those of others.

"The pang that wrenched her face and filled her eyes with anguish and intolerable mist" is a very strong verse that tries to draw all the pain that seizes Aunt Imogen and that her eyes are unable to hide.

"She was not born to be so much that, for she was born to be Aunt Imogen" are two very shocking verses of this woman's will power to overcome her momentary weakness, overcome her sadness and understand the role she should play. to fulfill in the life of children and their sister, no matter what else.

Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long To speak of that which gives thee all thy might? Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song, Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?

Rise, restive Muse, my love's sweet face survey, If Time have any wrinkle graven there; If any, be a satire to decay, And make Time's spoils despised every where.

Answers

Answer:

The statements which describe the sonnet's rhyme scheme and its effects are:

A. The rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.

E. The regular rhyme scheme makes the sonnet sound musical and memorable.

Explanation:

We can say two words rhyme when their final sounds are the same. For example: say - play; crash - dash.

To find the rhyme scheme in a poem, we must look at the last word of each line. The first last word to appear in this sonnet is "long". We will call it A. Any other words that sound like "long" will also be called A. The second last word to appear is "might". Since it does not sound like "long", we will call it B. This is what we will keep on doing with all last words and the letters of the alphabet.

With that in mind, this is what we have in Sonnet 100:

long A

might B

song A

light B

redeem C

spent D

esteem C

argument D

survey E

there F

decay E

where F

life G

knife G

Thus, the rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.

When the lines of a poem rhyme, just like the lines above do, the poem acquires certain musicality. There is a cadence, a rhythm that is marked by the rhymes, just like what happens to songs we normally listen to.

A Speech to the Student Body of Evergreen High

[1] Picture this: It's Spring Break, and you fly off to some country where there's lush rainforests and beautiful, blue coastlines to explore. There's also people in need, so you decide to blend your vacation with volunteering. Volunteering as a tourist, or voluntourism, seems like a great way to explore new regions and help people at the same time. However, this "volunteer plus travel" experience can actually harm local communities. While many teens might view traveling and volunteering abroad as a worthwhile adventure, there are more genuine and effective ways to make a difference.

[2] Most would agree that volunteering in general is a worthy use of time. However, what if you found out the children you are "helping" are actually being kept in poor conditions so voluntourists will spend money to come to the local area? Dale Rolfe, a supporter of ethical voluntourism, explains the shocking reality that "Animal sanctuaries and orphanages are often manufactured for the voluntourist...encouraging a cycle of exploiting the very animals and children the volunteers are trying to help."

[3] Proponents of the "volunteer plus travel" experience also argue that traveling to new places builds character and is a valuable way to learn about different cultures. With voluntourism, however, participants often pursue experiences that are all about them. For example, they sign up to build a school for a gold star on their resume, but they have no real building skills and take jobs away from local construction workers (Schulten). Or, they arrive to teach English but instead take selfies with the locals. One world traveler and ethical voluntourist believes voluntourism "can perpetuate small minded views of the world by taking insulated, fake, and structured experiences and selling them as unabridged and eye opening" (Carlos). The voluntour experience is a mirage. The voluntourist's eyes are not opened to real life at the destination, and lasting change is not achieved.

[4] If you want a genuine experience where you can see a lasting impact, there are better options than voluntourism. You can volunteer in your local community. Give an hour every week to your town's animal rescue. Serve monthly dinners to the homeless. Be a reliable, positive influence on a child who needs a mentor. Studies show that volunteering and forming lasting relationships with those you help has a positive impact on your physical and emotional health. In fact, blood pressure is reduced, memory is improved, and rates of depression are reduced (Michaels).

[5] There is another reason to look into alternatives to voluntourism. Did you know the average "voluntour" travel package costs $3,400 (Rolfe)? Could that travel money be better spent? If the world's citizens are your passion, it could go to an international organization. If you care about education, your funds can be used to buy books for students in faraway lands. If you want villagers to have clean water, contribute funds to local efforts to dig wells. If you want to experience a different culture, travel to the country as a guest, and learn from the locals how you can best help them after you've returned home. But do not voluntour.

[6] In reality, there are better ways to make a difference. Voluntourism might appear to be an adventure that blends travel and helping others, but it does little except provide a costly, superficial experience that might actually do more harm than good. So, volunteer where you are most needed-at home, where you can stay to see the job through and form genuine, lasting relationships. Choose a beautiful coastline closer to home and send the travel money you saved to an international organization that will put it to good use. Whatever you do, don't turn someone else's hardship into your vacation.

In a paragraph of 6-8 sentences, identify what each text emphasizes and explain how that emphasis supports the claim of each argument. Be sure to state each argument's claim and include evidence from both texts to support your analysis.

Answers

Answer:

     The speech provides a compelling argument against volunteering abroad due to the often hidden harmful effects it has. There is a particular emphasis on staying within your home-land and volunteering locally so that you are able to form a genuine connection with those you volunteer with or for. Volunteering while on holiday is a temporary excursion that has very little impact overall. Volunteering near your permanent residence however, ensures that you "see the job through". Another effective point made in the argument was how volunteering while on holiday is not truly a real life experience due to the artificiality of it all. Often times these "slums" are created as a tourist attraction so people will pay money to "help" and be self-proclaimed humanitarians when in reality they are just adding to the problem.

What prevents the narrator from killing the old man in the old man in the first 7 days

Answers

I think that it’s because the man had no reason to kill him other then his eye so he never acted on it because he was nervous but one night he just saw the opportunity and took it. So in short my answer is : He had no reason to other then the old man’s eye and he was nervous

Answer:

Since the narrator is only vexed with the old man's eye, he doesn't kill the old man because during the first seven nights, the eye was closed. Since the eye is closed, he had no problem with the old man, nor a reason to kill him.

Answers

Answer:

b. A couplet with an end-stopped line.

Explanation:

A couplet is a form of poetry where two successive lines of a poem rhyme at the end. Moreover, the two lines of poetry will have the same meter.

A couplet with an end-stopped line refers to a couplet where the first line will be continued onto the next line. Another identifier of an end-stopped line is if the first line ends with a comma and then the second line ends the sentence with a period/full stop.

Looking at the given line from Alexander Pope's "An Essay on Criticism", the line is an example of a couplet with an end-stopped line. The first line ends with a comma whereas the second line ends with a full stop. Moreover, the end words rhyme with each other, for "chance" and "dance" rhymes.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.
