Answer:

One example of a sound device such as rhythm used in "The Courage That My Mother Had" is in this quote "The golden brooch my mother wore..She left behind for me to wear; I have no thing I treasure more: Yet it is something I could spare." This is a simple rhyme scheme. This gives the poem that sing-song effect. Another example of spund devices used in this poem is repetition in the following quote. "Now granite in a granite hill."

Rhyme and rhythm. In the poem, the author employed these two poetic devices to emphasize the musicality of the poem. The rhyme scheme is alternate (abab cdcd efef). The rhyme isn't perfect, but the intention to rhyme is clear. Like the rhyme scheme, the rhythm is also evident although, again, not perfect. Each line has 8 syllables, few have 7. This uniform number of syllables create a steady beat when the lines are read.

Marianna [84]

A subject-verb agreement error occurs when the number (whether or not something is singular or plural) of the subject does not “agree” with the number of the verb.  For instance, if a subject is singular, the verb should be singular as well, and this is known as “agreeing.”  If the subject is singular, but the verb is plural, then this is known as a subject-verb agreement error (or subject-verb disagreement).  Below, the agreement errors have been corrected to the proper number and appear in bold. 


"This new technology is for everyone and will revolutionize the lives of millions of ordinary commuters. Cheaper than concrete or tarmac but just as durable, the new cycling paths absorb light and re-emit it when they sense that it is required. They're one hundred percent environmentally-friendly. The inventor, however, is less forthcoming when our conversation turns to how the product actually works. Despite a barrage of questions, the only thing he will admit to is that the key to this techno-wonder is a combination of recycled tires (what else?) and a specially formulated light-emitting powder that charges during the day and glows at night."

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Juliet: “My bounty is as boundless as the sea.”

Explanation:

Visual motif is a visual pattern, which in the context of Romeo & Juliet, means the use of descriptive language focusing on the sense of sight. All the options except for Juliet's dialogue, focuses on this, with Mercutio's "Blind is ....", Romeo's "What light through younder ...", and Friar Laurence's "The grey-eyed morn smiles ...".

Juliet's part, instead is a form of simile, describing how her bounty is like the boundless sea - but it does not look like one.

Write a letter to your friend describing how you saved a child who was in danger<br><br><br><br>​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Number 12 Aventon Street,

Birmingham.

September 15, 2020.

Dear Liam, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine.

Man you would never believe that I became superman for 3 minutes yesterday as I rescued a child from an armed attacker.

Now, don't laugh. This is serious. It was a life and death stuff, yeah I know I'm scrawny and skinny but yesterday all those was replaced by cold rage and a sense of duty to save the young lad.

On my way home just past six in the evening, I saw a young teen arguing with an older boy about something, I decided to mind my business, when suddenly the bigger (and older) guy brought out a jack knife!

I acted without thinking, and I'm glad I did because it probably saved the young lad's life. I struggled with the attacker for a while, after he had already slashed the kid on the arm a few times, I overpowered him and with the help of some bystanders, we rendered him immobile. The police was called and they took the rascal away.

Well, enough of my three minutes heroics, hope you're having a swell time over there.

Have a blessed weekend, man.

YOURS FAITHFULLY,

Aaron Connolly.
