Answer:

The rhythm and word choice in these three lines from Levertov's "Overheard over S.E. Asia" open the poem with a flat tone.

Explanation:

This is one of many anti-Vietnam poems Levertov wrote. The general tone at the beginning of these lines show a quiet sensation that could be considered flat, as people see the white phosphorus coming down as snow, later as the poem continues the tone changes in a very different direction, it goes from a flat presentation to a strong and varied poem.

Which details best reveal the setting of the passage? Select two options. "By the waters of Babylon"
Serggg [28]

Answer:

1. "It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know."

2. "Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods."

Explanation:

Background or setting is the time and place of a tale, whether it be reality or fiction. As a literary element, it's a must. The location establishes the story's major backdrop and tone.

Passage:

It is not true what some of the tales say, that the ground there burns forever, for I have been there. Here and there were the marks and stains of the Great Burning, on the ruins, that is true. But they were old marks and old stains. It is not true either, what some of our priests say, that it is an island covered with fogs and enchantments. It is not. It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know. Everywhere in it there are god-roads, though most are cracked and broken. Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods.
