The underlined phrase is this one:
"<span>fog rolling down the river"

The correct answer is this one: "Absolute Phrase."  </span><span>Absolute phrases do not directly connect to or modify any specific word in the rest of the sentence; instead, they modify the entire sentence, adding information. </span>

The underlined phrase for this question is: "fog rolling down the river"

ANSWER: Absolute phrase

An absolute phrase acts as a modifier to a sentence. It is not connected by any conjunctions and it also cannot contain any finite verb (verbs in the past or present tense).

We can see that the underlined phrase meets all of the definition of an absolute phrase. Its verb, rolling, ends in -ing and is therefore a nonfinite verb. The phrase also modifies the entire sentence, adding information about the fog.

One element of lyric poetry is personal reflection. Which lines in this poem most clearly illustrate that element?
NeX [460]

Answer:

"I wandered lonely as a cloud " is the line that refkects personal reflection.

Explanation:

When a poem reflects or expresses the careful thoughts, behavior and beliefs of the person, they are self-reflection poems. They express real emotions of the author. In the poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud " by "William Wordsworth", he uses the following line which shows personal reflection:

I wandered lonely as a cloud

In this line the poet describes himself as lonely who is wandering around. Cloud is usually up in the sky moving around without anyone around it. Similarly, speaker is using a metaphor to describe speaker who is lonely and wandering, moving without purpose and no direction.
