In 300 words or less, explain how Brooks's use of end-rhyme and internal-rhyme contributes to the overall meaning of the poem.
juin [17]

In the poem "The Bean Eaters," Brooks describes a couple of old people. She talks about the life they live, and the image is one of simplicity and routine. We learn that the couple is not wealthy, and in fact, they are quite poor. This is the reason they mostly eat beans. The poem is meant to highlight the injustice of poverty, and the sad situation of people like this couple. Brook's use of end rhyme and internal rhyme contributes to this overall meaning. It helps develop the idea of desolation and simplicity that characterizes the couple's existence.

Think about the author's attitude toward the oil spill. Then explain the author's purpose, or reason for writing this editorial.
Natalka [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The author's purpose or reason for writing this editorial was to inform and make people conscious about the terrible oil spill in April 2010in the Gulf of México, with the explosion of a British Petroleum rig. This spill caused so much damage to the ecosystem and the environment of the Gulf of México.

The two details from the text that support the answer are the following. The author, Kate Jackson, writes that the BP company knew about the possibility of an accident of this magnitude but it didn't do anything to prevent it. She said that David Rainey, an executive form British Petroleum, had assured the members of the Senate that the facility had no risk of a spill.

The other detail that supports the answer is that she wrote that the oil industry always had been aware of the dangers of spills but never has done so much to prevent them. Also, people like Robert Bea, an offshore engineer, had warned British Petroleum.
