Answer: A. Just for a handful of silver he left us/ Just for a riband to stick in his coat

Explanation:

In poetry, we have different kinds of "feet" - the iamb is probably the most famous type. A dactyl is a kind of foot in which we have a stressed syllable followed by two unstressed ones.

The lines in option A are often used as an example of dactylic meter. They are the very first two lines in the poem "The Lost Leader", by Robert Browning. If we highlight the stressed syllables, we may observe the pattern:

Just for a handful of silver he left us

Just for a riband to stick in his coat

in a scale of 1 to 5, how would you rate your learning in printed modules? 5 is the hidhest.Please explain your answer​
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

I would rate it as a four, because printed modules give you a visual on the work or the assignment that needs to be done, and gives you clear instructions. But for learners who need creative ways to learn, they will think that it is faulty because they need a more engaging way, not a black and white paper to study on or from. but if you are a visual learner, like me for example, you will feel better with a solid guideline with clear instruction in your hand

Any quotation taken word for word from a source must be enclosed in quotation marks and cited. This
densk [106]

<span>B. direct quotation.</span><span>

Have you no shame sir," he said, his eyes narrowing."
The quotation marks must be before the word “Have” and after the word “sir” and since this is in question form, a question mark must also be placed after the word sir and before the quotation mark. This is quoted because this is a verbatim question of the subject. The rest are descriptions of person asking the question. No quotation must be put at end of the sentence. All in all, the sentence is:</span> “Have you no shame sir?” he said, his eyes narrowing.
