Answer:

The description of Casey's changed attitude continues at the beginning of stanza 12. That "smile of Christian charity". Now his "teeth are clinched in hate." Casey has gone from a dependable, athlete, to the disparity of the team's success. The lines, "Oh, somewhere in this favoured land the sun is shining bright, / The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light; / And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout, / But there is no joy in Mudville—mighty Casey has struck out." have a contrast between the shining sun and laughter, to Casey striking 3 balls out. The stanzas contribute to the theme that too much pride can lead to failure, or that one shouldn't depend on overconfidence.

Contrastive distribution occurs when two sounds placed in the same context produce different meanings. This is the case in the sounds [k] and [x] . For example: <em>[kano] 'do' versus [xano] 'lose'. </em>

The same happens with the sounds [ç] and [c]. They are in constrastive distribution as in shown in the following example: <em>[çino] 'pour' versus [cino] 'move </em>

In complementary distribution, where one sound occurs the other cannot. This is the case in the sounds [k] and [c] The first sound (palatal stop) appears before front vowels whereas the second sound (velar stop) appears elsewhere.

The sounds [ç] and [x] are also in complementary distribution. As in the previous example, the palatal appears before front vowels and the velar appears elsewhere

The flag is described as 'just a piece of cloth' which juxtaposes the importance and the symbolism of the flag. thought the entire poem there is a feeling of conflict.
