To examine the rhythm in “Annabel Lee,” a reader should note

the overall meaning of the poem.
the relationship between the parts.
the high and low stresses in sound.
the reappearance of words or ideas.

Answers

To examine the rhythm in “Annabel Lee,” a reader should note C. the high and low stresses in sound.

What is rhythm ?

Rhythm, the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables within a poem, can be observed in "Annabel Lee." The alternating high and low stresses create a fluid and melodic quality. Through careful examination of its sound, we can identify the metrical scheme or pattern championed by the poet, here being predominantly iambic tetrameter.

Every line contains four pairs of strong and weak beats respectively which contribute to the atmosphere of the poem and assist readers in gaining an intricate appreciation for its significance.

History is by far my favorite subject in school. It is very difficult to learn all the names and dates. The challenge is well worth it for several reasons. First, it's great to learn about inspirational figures from the past. Today we learned about Abraham Lincoln, who guided America through the Civil War. Second, I get to see how the past has influenced our lives today. History helps us all learn to not make the same mistakes that were made in the past. These are just three of the reasons I can't wait for history class.

writing and argument paper on poetry and need to know if you get taught poetry in high school and whats expected from you when being taught it.

Answers

Yes, at my high school, we get taught poetry. Not every school or teacher is going to teach it in the same way however. We read a couple of Shakespeare plays, and we are expected to read them out loud in a class setting. The teacher usually asks the students what the phrase or sonnet means, because they want us to use critical thinking skills. The teachers will teach us and tell us what it means as well. In my high school, we also read a lot of poetry that isn’t Shakespeare, and we are usually asked to use our critical thinking skills to reflect and figure out what the author was saying. Sometimes, my teachers will have us write our own poems using the technique that the author wrote the poem in. All in all, it’s just a lot of thinking and reflecting, and Simone times there are connections to current issues as well. :)

I love going on walks and hikes outdoors with my family. There are so many things that you can see like plants and bugs. You can bike around or go to the pool. You can go camping and stay in a tent outdoors or sleep in a hammock

Explanation:

Answer:

I would define nature as the world around us without any type of human involvement. I believe that nature is anything natural to the earth. It is the plants, animals, rivers, forests, birds, weather, etc. It is a gift given to us bygod. Most people believe that nature is just centered on the thought of the ocean and forest. Nature to me is the life source for all living creatures it provides us with the four essential things that we need to survive which are food, water, air, and shelter. However, we are so disconnected from nature we do not see the constant damage that is destroying our home.

The urban environment that I live in is my nature. My nature is filled with birds, cats, grass, and flowers. It may not be as abundant with mother nature’s resources compared to most places, but it still provides me with an experience of nature. Nature is not limited to just what we see anymore. However, you must use your senses to truly achieve the full experience of nature. In nature, you must smell the wonderful odors from the flowers, you should use your sight and observe the natural beauty of the ever-changing sky, touch the rough and jagged bark of the trees, and hear the spectacular songs of the birds that fly above you.  

The connection between humans and nature is very weak. Due to future advancement, we are basically losing our grip on reality, which brings up the point of destruction to nature that we are not aware of. At one point in time, nature was the most beautiful thing you could ever witness. Now people exploit it for money. They are selling land, resources, even water for a profit. They don’t think twice or blink an eye at the damage they cause. The disconnect is so huge the debate of protecting the earth is treated as a forbidden topic.

“Second, environmental injustices critics challenge the mainstream environmental idea of what environmental problems are in the first place. They say it focused on the beautiful outdoors, it has an anti-urban bias, it isn’t engaged enough with artificial human environments like neighborhoods and workplaces” (Purdy 4) That just baffles me how you can turn the place we call home and the wellness of it to a political debate when all we should want to do is preserve it.

Help please!!!! Proofread this excerpt from a review of the film The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Which sentence contains punctuation errors?


Links/ irrelevant answers WILL be reported.

Answers

Answer:

I'm pretty sure the punctuation error is in the third sentence;

'This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist; Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly.'

Just after the word 'protagonist', the author uses a semi-colon (;). A semi-colon is used to link two separate clauses that have similar ideas together. It turns two clauses into one.

In this situation, the semi-colon is not doing that, because that would imply that if we were to separate the "two clauses", it would look like this:

"This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist. Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly."

This wouldn't make sense. Instead of a semi-colon, the author should've used a comma!

two quotes from the text best support the answer to Part A

What is the quote?

To quote someone is to verbatim repeat their words from a speaker or author. A paragraph or statement repeated in this manner is also considered a quotation. To quote something is to cite it as evidence. As a verb and a noun, a quote has a number of additional meanings.

Quote, you should strive to do whatever you can, regardless of what you may be unable to do, without letting fear of failure or doubt stop you. Hope that was useful.

The fur of Miss Brill represents her inner landscape. She addresses the fur as if it were a living being to start the story. This shows her sense of solitude and loneliness, as well as her creative abilities. Miss Brill returns the fur to its little, dark box after being rejected at the park.

Therefore,  Thus option (B,E) is correct
