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).

Read the following passage from Amy Tan's “Two Kinds” and answer the question.
uranmaximum [27]
The answer would be B based off of how her grammar is in this segment. Because her grammar is conducted poorly, it probably was not her first language.
Hopefully this helps. ;)

Describe the incident with the vanilla ice cream. Why was it so upsetting for Nilda?
lyudmila [28]

Explanation:

As Sophie informed her that they'll get ice cream today, then Nilda was quite enthusiastic and assured Sophie how she would enjoy vanilla ice cream, Nilda was thinking that they'll get some healthy food today. They saw it put in bins, and Nilda got much more interested. Nilda was delighted to reveal a strawberry ice cream at the flat, and sat down to taste it. It sounded strange from ice cream with vanilla.

It was doughy, sticky and slippery as she placed it in her teeth. She spit it out, remembering that it was vegetable oil, not vanilla ice cream. Nilda was really irritated.
