1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The first section of an elegy expresses sorrow for the deceased.

The last section of an elegy expresses consolation and comfort.

Explanation:

Elegies are narrative poems written after the death of a person. This poem acts as a means to mourn the death or passing of that person, and acts as a mournful song for the deceased.

Elegies are normally written in such a way that the beginning part expresses the pain and sorrow felt by the speaker at the death of the person. It then moves on to express consolation and comfort towards the end of the poem. Most famous elegies are "O Captain! My Captain!" by Walt Whitman written for Abraham Lincoln and W.H. Auden's "In Memory of W.B. Yeats".

Correct answer choice is :


<h2>B) Feeding habits and migration.</h2><h2 /><h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

Gulls or seagulls are seabirds of the family Laridae in the suborder Lari. They are most intimately associated to the terns and only distantly linked to auks, skimmers, and more distantly to the waders. The Canada fool is a large wild goose class with a black head and neck, white cheeks, white under its chin, and a brown body. Native to northern and temperate areas of North America, its migration seldom reaches northern Europe.
