Answer:

The correct answers are a and b.

Explanation:

A myth can be defined as a legendary story that concerns a hero or event that is related to deities or demigods; it explains the origins of a practice, rite, or something related to nature. Options A and B fit in this category since Cupid and Psyche narrates the story of how Cupid makes Psyche fall in love with a monster because Cupid's mother Venus was jealous of Psyche. Also, Prometheus and the First People tells the story of how Prometheus is tortured by Zeus because the first one gave humans the fire.

Direction: Read each item carefully. Choose the letter of the correct answer,
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

1) b. tone

2) a. to intrigue

Explanation:

1. Tone: It is the attitude that the speaker conveys through a message.

Basically, the tone of a text expresses or reflects the mood of an author of a literary work and as such goes a long way to affect the countenance of the reader. Therefore, the tone being used by an author in a literary work such as articles, novels, stories etc., has the potential of evoking various emotions and shaping the perspective of a reader of the piece of writing.

Also, you should note that tone is a literary device in literature and simply does not mean the way people speak or pitch used by a speaker in contemporary english language.

For example, I'll hit you up at noon in your office tomorrow means I'll see you at your office tomorrow.

2. A prose can be defined as a form of oral language or literary work that do not have a metrical structure. Thus, it involves the natural flow of speech and ordinary grammatical structure.

The following are the main purpose of prose speech;

I. To persuade

II. To entertain.

Read the poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies’” by Robert Hayden.
frutty [35]

Robert Hayden was born on August 4, 1913 and died on February 25, 1980. He was an American poet, essayist, and educator. He served as Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress from 1976 to 1978, a role today known as US Poet Laureate. He was the first African-American writer to hold the office.

Robert Hayden was born in Detroit, Michigan, son of Ruth and Asa Sheffey. The couple separated before his birth. He was taken in by a foster family next door, Sue Ellen Westerfield and William Hayden, and grew up in a Detroit ghetto nicknamed "Paradise Valley". The Haydens' eternally belligerent marriage, coupled with Ruth Sheffey’s competition for her son's affections, made for a traumatic childhood. Witnessing fights and suffering beatings, Hayden lived in a house troubled with chronic anger. His childhood traumas resulted in debilitating bouts of depression that he later called "my dark nights of the soul".

Before answering the question, I would like to mention what we call free verse poetry. It is poetry that is free from limitations of regular meter or rhythm, and does not rhyme with fixed forms. Such poems are without rhythm and rhyme schemes, do not follow regular rhyme scheme rules, yet still provide artistic expression.

We can conclude that the present poem is written in free verse because:

There is no rhyme scheme.

The lines are unequal in length.

<em>The other options present limitations or patterns which are the opposite characteristics of free verse.</em>

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

"Contains a miracle ingredient"

Explanation:

Glittering generalities in advertising are phrases that are very positive and attractive to customers, and they bring general approval towards a product without much information to back it up.

This phrase is the best example of a glittering generality because it mentions a "miracle" ingredient, something that is very positive and will be attractive to customers.
