It emphasizes that the principles involved are universal, not just American
Explanation:
Part I
"A strange multiplicity of
sensations seized me, and I saw, felt, heard, and smelt, at the same time.
"
This part of the excerpt shows that the speaker is experiencing impulses of a newborn who is just starting to be aware of his senses.
Part II
"I knew, and could distinguish, nothing."
This reflects innocence and lack of experience or knowledge.
Part III
"Sometimes I wished to express my sensations
in my own mode, but the uncouth and inarticulate sounds which broke from me
frightened me into silence again.'
This mirrors a baby's innocence and puerile attempt to express feelings.
Answer:
The excerpt from:
- "Annabel Lee" is written in a sestet
- "In Memorium" is written in a quatrain
- "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is written in an octave
- "Hero and Leander" is written in couplets
Explanation:
A sestet is a stanza composed of six lines, a quatrain of four lines, an octave is written in eight lines, and a couplet is a set of two rhyming lines, usually written in the same meter.
It is important to note that the definitions of all these types of stanzas have varied with different works and origins and some can further be classified into various sub-types depending on their position in the poem, meter, use, etc., and can be further elaborated with typical rhyme schemes that they use; however, the common aspect that they share is the number of lines, which is what the question is based on.
The correct answer is the first option “For an African, whether you were sent to the Caribbean or South America, you were now part of the sugar machine.”. Taken from the book “<em>Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science</em>” by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos (2010), this excerpt best states the main point or claim of the text that the author narrates: the operation of the sugar machine. In other words, this could be the <u>thesis statement</u>. The rest of the options are <u>supporting sentences</u> that develop the actual operation of the sugar machine: how someone may be part of another group, how someone may work according to the ground, and how overseers supervise someone’s work.
