English

Answer:

d) The casualties in Vietnam

Explanation:

Kinnell doesn't set out to write a politically charged poem, but the connections he makes lead him in that direction, nonetheless. While living in a Vietnamese hamlet, the narrator of the poem Vapor Trail Reflected in the Frog Pond hears "America Singing," a song composed of the crunching of weapons and the buzz of a bomber jet. Thus, it contrasts conflict with tranquility by depicting a bomber against a tranquil background of the loss.

Are you supposed to use the word “I” when writing a newspaper article? Please answer ASAP thank u so much!
Rzqust [24]
Answer: No

Reason:
When writing a newspaper article, you are writing about a story, and what happened. The facts, basically. People want to hear the real story, not your opinion. The newspaper article is focused on a person or story. It gives what actually happened, not your opinions and what you seem to know.

I hope this helps,

Select the correct text in the passage.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

<em>1. "Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought in upon a platter, </em>

<em>I am no prophet—and here’s no great matter;"</em>

<em>2. "To say: “I am Lazarus, come from the dead,"</em>

Explanation:

T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" is a poem that deals with the themes of alienation, isolation amidst the tortured psyche of the modern man and his 'overconfidence' life. This modernism poem is from the speaker, Alfred Prufrock's perspective, delving into his love life and his need or desire to consummate his relationship with the lover.

An allusion is one literary device that writers use to provide details in their work. It makes reference to other pieces or works in this description. And two instances of biblical allusion are found in the lines <em>"I am no prophet"</em> and <em>"To say: To say: “I am Lazarus, come from the dead".</em> The first "prophet" allusion is about John the Baptist whose head was cut off and brought on a platter on the request of Herodias's daughter to Herod (Matthew 14, Mark 6). And the second allusion is to Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the grave/ dead (John 11).
