"Annabel Lee" - Edgar Allan Poe: This was the last poem written by Poe. it is a gothic poem, representing death, melancholy and the loss of true love. Common themes in the writer's work.

The section of a sonnet that sets the theme - octave: The sonnet is a poem written in a fixed way. This is because it is always written with four stanzas, where the first two stanzas have four verses and the last two stanzas have three verses.

An example of consonance - "Success” : Consonance is the term used to describe a harmonious set within a word or phrase. This triggers a pleasant sound to the human ear and determines the word being described at a certain pace.

An example of irony - "The Snake": Irony is a literary device that the donors use to express an affirmation that means the opposite of what it expresses. It is constantly used in satires, acid criticisms and even in jokes.

A word picture- image: An image can represent several things, including words, sounds, smells, sensations, among others.

A repetition of consonant sounds at the beginnings of words in a line of poetry- alliteration: Alliteration is a figure of speech used to promote the sequence of words that share the same characteristic, such as a repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words in a line of poetry.

"Birches"- Robert Frost: American journalist and great poet, Frost was the author of Birches being one of the most influential of his time and one of the most important American poets of the 20th century. As a brilliant journalist, he received four Pulitzer Prizes.

Correct any errors in capitalization or punctuation:
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The best option is letter B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

Explanation:

When quoting what someone said, even if it is a character in a play or a story, we must use quotation marks. Notice that they will separate the character's words from the words of the person who is quoting. Also, if a period or a comma must appear, they should come inside the quotation marks, not outside. Therefore, letter B is the best option because it follows those instructions.

B) "After a good dinner one can forgive anybody," joked a character in one of Oscar Wilde's plays, "even one's own reflections."

stellarik [79]

Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if needs be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong. Why should I not use my gift? If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the scu m of the earth—sailors from tramp ships—lascars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels—a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them." "But they are men," said Rainsford hotly. This excerpt shows that unlike Zaroff, Rainsford has still retained his sense of fairness. humanity. humor. entitlement.

Answer:

This excerpt shows that unlike Zaroff, Rainsford has retained his sense of HUMANITY.

Explanation:

From the excerpt, Zaroff is talking about human beings and comparing them to thoroughbred horses and calling them despicable names, vowing that he would kill as much as he can because he is strong but they are weak.

In contrast, Rainsford counters him in an angry manner by reminding him that they are still human beings which shows that Rainsford still retains his humanity.
