Both choices are incorrect. The adoption of a decasyllabic meter is the right response.

Geoffrey Chaucer was an English poet who wrote The Canterbury Tales during the Middle Ages. He is referred to as the "Father of English Literature" and was the first author to be interred in Westminster Abbey's Poets' Corner.

Chaucer is renowned for his inventive use of metrical structure. He was one of the first English poets to adopt the five-stress line, a decasyllabic relative of the Elizabethan-era favorite iambic pentameter.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

During the 17th century, the metaphysical poets such as John Donne, Andrew Marvell, John Cleveland, and Abraham Cowley used a literary device known as the metaphysical conceit. A metaphysical conceit is a complex, and often lofty literary device that <u>makes a far-stretched comparison between a spiritual aspect of a person and a physical thing in the world.</u> Quite simply, a metaphysical conceit is an <u>extended metaphor, which can sometimes last through the entire poem.</u> A metaphysical conceit works to connect the reader's sensory perceptions to abstract ideas. Although the conceit slowly went away after the 17th century, due to being perceived as artifice, some later poets like Emily Dickinson used it.

Which sentence about a thesis statement is not true? A. It sets the tone. B. It reveals an author’s belief. C. It asks the reade
ad-work [718]

The correct answer is C.  It asks the reader a question

Explanation:

In writing a thesis statement is usually a short affirmative sentence that states the position of the author towards some topic or issue and therefore the main argument or point that is developed in a text. Because of this, it is considered the thesis statement is one of the most important elements in argument texts, as it does not only shows the author's position or belief but also establishes the content, the focus of the author and the tone of the text. Considering this, ti can be concluded the statement that is not true about a thesis statement is that it asks the reader a question because the thesis statement is an affirmative sentence and not a question and besides is not developed by the reader but by the author of the text.
