Fro and Through

Slant rhyme is when the words do not have perfect rhyme. They could have a similar sound, but it's not identical. Sometimes a reader must alter the pronunciation of the words slightly to create the similar sound. In the poem, fro has a long /o/ sound and through has the sound /oo/. These are not identical, but can be similar if pronounced a certain way.

I would say FRO and THROUGH, because through is said differently then when you're rhyming with FRO, if I could say it outlaid it would make more sense :P but I hope this helps!

Discuss two of the governments anti corruption strategies that attempts to deal with corruption as a whole
Musya8 [376]

One strategy is to pay civil servants salaries that allow them to take care of themselves and their families.  Many government employees fall into corruption because they are not paid enough and sometimes have to additional sources of income just to get by.  By paying them a good wage, it discourages them from certain forms of corruption such as taking bribes since they now can take care of themselves and their families. Another is cutting red tape.  People get frustrated when it comes to applying for certain documents from government due to the long process and too much requirements just to get it.  Making the requirements simple and the process faster discourages people from asking favors from employees to hasten the process.
