Analyze the following lines from famous poems. Identify which uses alliteration? a. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon b. Hurled headlong flaming from the ethereal sky with hideous ruin C. One could do worse than be a swinger of birches d. It is not sweet with nimble feet to dance upon the air​

Answers

Answer:

B. Hurled headlong flaming from the ethereal sky with hideous ruin

Explanation:

Allitetation is a literary device whose main characteristic is repetition of the same letter (or sound) in several close words in a line (or a sentence).

It's main purpose is to emphasize those words and make strong connection between them. As an addition, it makes the poem more appealing.

Here, we see "hurled" "headlong" and "hideous" used in the same line and all starting with the same sound.

For more information, that line is from John Milton's "Paradise Lost".

What would most likely happen in the ecosystem shown in the above food web if the fox population significantly increased? A. The population of bees would increase. B. The population of mice would decrease. C. The population of black bears would increase. D. The population of mice would increase.

Answers

Answer:

B. The population of mice would decrease.

Explanation:

In the given food web, the primary source of food are the plants. Bee, mouse, fox and black bear all the organisms depend on the plants directly and indirectly for their food. A fox and a black bear are omnivore animals that feeds both on plants and other animas. The fox here feeds both on the plant and the mouse. In the situation when the population of fox is increased, the population of mice would decrease at an alarming rate. With the increase in the number of foxes, the stress on the plants and the mice would increase. The foxes would directly eat feed on mice. Also, by feeding on the plants, the foxes will decrease the source of food for the mice too.

Which inference can be drawn about Bilbo's character in The Hobbit?



Bilbo struggles with discomfort.


Bilbo dislikes the dwarves and does not want to go with them.


Bilbo respects Gandalf for asking him to join the expedition.


Bilbo is excited to join the dwarves in their quest for gold.

Part B


Which excerpts best support the answer in Part A?


Select the two correct answers.



"'My dear fellow,' said he, 'whenever are you going to come? What about an early start?--and here you are, having breakfast, or whatever you call it, at half past ten! They left you the message, because they could not wait.'


'What message?' said poor Mr. Baggins all in a fluster.



"The washing-up was so dismally real that Bilbo was forced to believe the party of the night before had not been part of his bad dreams, as he had rather hoped. Indeed he was really relieved after all to think that they had all gone without him, and without bothering to wake him up ('but with never a thank-you' he thought)..."


"'To think it will soon be June!' grumbled Bilbo, as he splashed along behind the others in a very muddy track. It was after tea-time; it was pouring with rain, and had been all day; his hood was dripping into his eyes, his cloak was full of water; the pony was tired and stumbled on stones; the others were too grumpy to talk. 'And I’m sure the rain has got into the dry clothes and into the food-bags,” thought Bilbo. 'Bother burgling and everything to do with it!'"


"'What I say,' said Bilbo gasping. 'And please don’t cook me, kind sirs! I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean. I’ll cook beautifully for you, a perfectly beautiful breakfast for you, if only you won’t have me for supper.'


'Poor little blighter,' said William. He had already had as much supper as he could hold; also he had had lots of beer. 'Poor little blighter! Let him go!'
-And now... Ducks (just cause)

Answers

In part A of The Hobbit passage we can infer Bilbo struggles with discomfort. In part B we can infer that passage I st and Vth talks about discomfort faced by Bilbo.

In The Hobbit, Bilbo has mixed feelings about taking part in the mission. In fact, Horin and the other dwarves consistently misjudge Bilbo. The Unfinished Tales also claims that Gandalf picked Bilbo because he anticipated the enemy's decision to do the same.

Hobbits no longer have any knowledge of almost any other race of people in Middle Earth at this time. In the top of a bush, Bilbo hides. Trolls must be underground during the day, so when Gandalf tricks them into staying out past dawn, they turn to stone. The dwarves are set free by Gandalf and Bilbo.

Why do you think the place where a story or literary work takes place is important to the reader? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The place where a story or literary work takes place is important to the reader as it gives context to the story and plot line. The literary skill of allusion may also be used depending on where the place is, which may appeal to the reader's experiences, allowing them to either relate or better understand the story since the reference would be familiar. Without a proper understanding of the place in a literary work or story, the audience may be unable to decipher the timeline or the social expectations set around the characters as well.

Match each example of figurative language with its meaning. stood like a pillar of cloud torn and faded banners of the departed summer ancient blood-stains against the dark-blue sky Meaning Figurative Language divine light arrowBoth reminders of earlier days arrowBoth crimson red arrowBoth

Answers

Explanation:

1. "stood like a pillar of cloud torn"

Figurative language: a Simile.

Meaning: A Simile is a figurative language that makes a comparison between two things of a different kind to make a vivid description using 'like' or 'as'. In this example, the author is comparing someone who stood to a 'pillar of cloud torn'. This compares how unadmiring a torn pillar of cloud is with the way the person stood.

2. "faded banners of the departed summer ancient blood-stains against the dark-blue sky"

Figurative language: a Metaphor

Meaning: a Metaphor is symbolic (non-literal) comparison of an object or action with another thing, action, or idea in other to explain an idea. Hence, the expression, "summer ancient blood-stains" refers to horrific events in the past that resulted in "dark-blue sky" (or grief).
