Answer:

The poem is written in free verse because it does not follow an exact rhyme scheme. Such pattern can only be found when there is a specific set of meter that gives the rhythm of the lines. For example, in the second stanza above, the words <em>"tears,"</em> <em>"lost" </em>and <em>"words" </em><u>do not rhyme at all.</u> So, there is <u>no pattern here.</u>

Explanation:

A "free verse" is considered a <em>more modern type of writing a poem</em>. It is also regarded as an "open form verse." It does not follow a regular metrical form, therefore, <u>it doesn't follow an organized rhythmic pattern</u>. It also uses a conversational way, which seems like the poem is talking to the reader.

Examples of free verse poems are: <em>"The First Time We Kissed" </em>(Kelly Roper), <em>"After the Sea-Ship"</em> (Walt Whitman) and<em> "Free Verse"</em> (Robert Graves).

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

1) A nun looked at the narrator's house as if it were a terrible place to live.

2) She is the more carefree child, the one who has her own opinions.

  • She is using the wild description of her hair to imply that she is also wild. It wouldn't be choice B, because that's too literal; and C and D don't make sense.

3) She feels like her family is holding her back from opportunities and experiences.

  • If she had stopped with the balloon, it would have been a happy metaphor. But a balloon tied to an anchor? Can't fly, can't go anywhere with the anchor holding it down.

4) She and Nenny's laughter is loud and grabs the attention of anyone nearby.

  • She's contrasting it with Rachel and Lucy. It's not orthodox, it's carefree and noisy.

5) She feels ashamed that she and Nenny have no money to buy anything.

  • Nenny asks how much the music box is, but Gil doesn't even offer it because he knows they don't have any money. Esperanza knows, though.

6) She wishes she had a different name than Esperanza.

  • The author is contrasting the two worlds, the hispanic and american, that they live between. Her name is hard to pronounce, and she connects it with sadness and longing.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

“And the girl-daughter picked him up on the palm of her little brown hand, and sat him in the bottom of the canoe and gave him her scissors, and he waved them in his little arms, and opened them and shut them and snapped them, and said, ‘I can eat nuts.’”

Explanation:

Kipling's story titled 'The Crab that played with the Sea' primarily discusses the story of a crab and how it is changed from a huge animal to a tiny being through the flow of tides and ebb.

The above statement most clearly reflects the author's key reason for writing. The descriptions like 'picked him up on the palm of her little brown hand', 'waved them in his little arms', etc. reflect that the author aims to inform the readers about the consequences faced by Pau Amma(the monster crab) for causing problems in the sea. It also informs the readers that why crab was converted into a tiny creature from a huge animal. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
