Read the following passage to answer questions
7nadin3 [17]
1.   <span>A. strength

The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.

2. </span><span>D. "Mapping the furrow exactly" </span>

Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."

What type of rhyme is used in this excerpt from William Butler Yeats's poem "The Municipal Gallery Revisited"? My mediaeval knee
Arlecino [84]
Hello, the answer here would be "slant rhyme". It cannot be a "strict rhyme" because it is not strict, the rhyme changes throughout the poem, it doesn't follow the same scheme. It isn't "internal rhyme" as well, because the words don't rhyme within a single line. It isn't a "double rhyme" because these are all monosyllabic words (one syllable) and for it to be a double rhyme there needs to be at least to syllables in a word. So the only option is "slant rhyme", which isn't exactly rhyming, for example, "dear" and "door" would be considered slant rhyme.
