Answer:

<u> C. Elizabethan</u>

Explanation:

Elizabethan literature saw the flowering of plays of classical tragedy, drama and comedy told in five acts, with a minimal description of the setting and focused on characters' dialogues, which was usually written in iambic pentameter. A great Elizabethan play-writer whose works had those features was William Shakespeare. Likewise, this age saw the development of many great poets that preferred writing sonnets, a poem consisting of 14 lines that followed a specific pattern, usually, a five-foot iambics rhyming, which gave the verse a rhythmical and melodious sound.

Which is more flexible,orthodoxy or dogma

Read the excerpt from “I Hear American Singing.”
GalinKa [24]
Answer: By beginning each line with a type of worker

Explanation: You can eliminate answer choice A, because the first line of the excerpt begins with “those,” while the other sentences begin with “the.” Answer choice B cannot be valid because Whitman lists the type of worker at the beginning of such line, as opposed to the end. Answer choice D can easily be eliminated because each line ends with a different word, and none are the same. Therefore, you are left with answer choice C, which is clearly the correct answer, as mechanics, carpenters, masons, and boatman are all brought up within the first three words of each sentence.
