<span>Edgar Allan Poe's view on poetry is that all poems must be a "rhythmical creation of beauty". In his eyes, melancholy and sadness is beautiful. He thinks that the death of a young beautiful woman is itself full of beauty. I hope this helps.</span>
B is the answer for which of these details is an anecdote
Sample Response:
I disagree because I feel that it was one little thing that Miep Gies could do for her friends. She had already made the decision to risk so much, and she couldn't stop then. I would have taken the diary to hide and hoped to see Anne again to return it to her.

This question is missing the options. I've found the options online, and they are as follows:
[...] Which statement most accurately explains the structure of this passage?
A. The author builds up to the most important idea in the story, which is that the bean lives.
B. The author uses chronological order to show the history of the bean's experiences.
C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.
D. The author uses problem and solution to show how the tailor solves the bean's problem of having exploded.
Answer:
The statement that best explains the structure of the passage is:
C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.
Explanation:
We must read the full passage before we can choose the best answer. We might be tempted to choose the option that speaks of chronological order, since the author does use it to build the story in the proper sequence.<u> It is only in the end that we get to see the purpose of the passage. When the author says, "The bean thanked him most prettily, but as the tailor used black thread, all beans since then have a black seam," it is revealed that the passage is actually telling us the cause behind the black spot every bean has. The cause is the black thread used by the tailor to mend a bean that had exploded. The effect is the black spot itself. Therefore, the best option is letter C.</u>
