Answer:

Enjambed line.

Explanation:

In poetry, an enjambment is a literary device in which there is a disproportion between the syntax and the metric of a verse.

It can easily be recognized as the idea is not fully expressed by the end of a verse. An enjambment breaks the thought in two and it must be continued through the following line.

This literary device was frowned upon by the classics but was kindly welcomed by the romantics due to its strong <em>expressiveness</em>.

Which of the following lines is a cliché?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

A cliché is a sentence or phrase that has been used too many times that it has lost its significance, for which it had been once important. Another characteristic of a cliché is that they intend to add greatness to a very repetitive and overly used concept. The romantic movies would be a good example of it, we all know love is a nice experience, but in romance movies they tend to exaggerate the feeling by making it look heavenly all the time, which we all know it is not that way all the time.

From the options we have here the lines that represent a cliché better is:

4. A thing of beauty is a joy forever

This saying has the two main characteristics of a cliché, it has been said too many times, and it talks about beauty and joy forever. We know that nothing has beauty and produces joy forever, hence this is the perfect example of a cliché.

Answer: "great, grey, stone wall", ''Sour smelling cement''

Explanation:

If we are trying to connect both the Berlin Wall picture and Inge's Wall (literary artwork) we must be aware of the story in that Inge's Wall is representing.

Inge's Wall story: In Inge's Wall, there is one wall with two sides, one side is unattainable and alive, unlike the other side where the main character Inge is living. Her side is grey, without color and lifeless. She discovered the bright side when she looked up through the one hole that she found on that wall and then she saw a different world, opposite of her own.

  • If we compare the phrases with the picture, we can see that the wall is great, grey and from the stone and sour smelling cement because that was her point of view in the novel.

Since we cannot see much more, we cannot tell if there are busy traffic or laughter and music on the other side of the wall.
