Answer:

The road crew shoveled sticky black tar that shimmered in the summer heat.

Explanation:

The use of descriptive language appeals to the readers in all of their senses, meaning a piece of text is describe in such a manner it makes the reader feel as if they're actually witnessing the scene with their physical presence.

Regarding the answer, the black tar receiving the action by the subject has its color (black) and visual effect (shimmering) described as how a reader might observe it were they part of the situation. The tar's consistecy (sticky) is also described to let the reader know how it would feel to the touch.

<em>This is the most descriptive option of the four.</em>

Read “Kinds of Discipline,” by John Holt, then respond to the questions
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The guidelines and transition that the author uses are the textual structures used in the text.

Explanation:

In “Kinds of Discipline," the author uses the textual structure as a guideline for transition, so he manages to move from one paragraph to another in a coherent and organized way, promoting a fluid and cohesive text. In this text, the author uses the order/sequence structure to show the types of discipline that children are subjected to, in addition to using the descriptive structure to explain and describe these disciplines.

The african pot by Fhazel Johennesse comment on the structure of the poem ​
matrenka [14]

By analyzing the structure of this poem, we can see that the poem is composed of six stanzas and thirty lines. Each stanza has a different number of lines, the poem has no rhymes and no punctuation.

The structure of a poem refers to how that poem is organized and how the reader can perceive it as soon as he observes it.

In "The African Pot" we can see a non-standardized and spontaneous structure and this is directly related to the message of the poem, since:

  • The poem refers to the daily life of a small African village.
  • The events that take place in the village are spontaneous and non-standard, as is the organization of the stanzas and lines of the poem.
  • Everything that happens in the village is very simple, nothing is highlighted, as well as the lines of the poem that do not have punctuation or rhymes.
  • Despite its simplicity, the village is an admirable place, as is the poem with its simple and tranquil structure.

Based on this, we can conclude that as soon as we look at the structure of the poem, we get the impression that the poet made no effort to present a standard and well-established structure, but soon after we realized that the poet made an effort to make the structure follow the narrative presented in the poem.
