What organization method is this essay

Answer: In the essay "Symptoms," John Steinbeck discusses the effects that war can have on soldiers. He argues that soldiers are often reluctant to talk about their experiences, and that one of the reasons for this is because they are likely to forget a lot of it as a defense mechanism.

Steinbeck explains this by comparing it to childbirth. He tells us that women have the ability to forget about pain after childbirth because this enables them to have more children. It is a defense mechanism. Similarly, soldiers are able to forget the hardship of war in order to keep living their lives or to fight in a war again.

Steinbeck probably chose this analogy in order to explain the experiences of war in a way that was more relatable to the reader. It is a successful analogy because it fulfill its purpose of explaining what war is like for soldiers.

Wes writes on page 54 that, “later in life, I learned that the way many governors projected the numbers of beds they’d need for

Aliun [14]

It's widely believed that this is something of an urban myth. According to this myth, prison governors supposedly use third-grade reading scores in local schools to plan how many beds they will need to provide in their facilities. The idea is that those who fall into a life of crime never progress in their reading abilities beyond third grade.

In Christina Rossetti's "A Wintry Sonnet," speakers include the moon and the ocean. Of which literary technique are such speaker

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

C. Personification

Explanation:

A Wintry Sonnet (Christina Rossetti)

A Robin said: The Spring will never come,

And I shall never care to build again.

A Rosebush said: These frosts are wearisome,

My sap will never stir for sun or rain.

The half Moon said: These nights are fogged and slow,

I neither care to wax nor care to wane.

The Ocean said: I thirst from long ago,

Because earth's rivers cannot fill the main.--

When Springtime came, red Robin built a nest,

And trilled a lover's song in sheer delight.

Grey hoarfrost vanished, and the Rose with might

Clothed her in leaves and buds of crimson core.

The dim Moon brightened. Ocean sunned his crest,

Dimpled his blue, yet thirsted evermore.

Here we see that Christine Rossetti used personification as her main literary technique.

Personification is a literary technique in which a thing (object or animal) is given human attributes (ability to talk, to walk, to think...)

For example, we see in this poem, “The half Moon said...” we are giving the moon the ability to speak, which is a human quality. That's why we can say that the moon has been personified in the given poem. The same we can say about the ocean "The Ocean said...", the ocean is not a living being, it can't speak, so this is personification.

There are a few reasons for using personification:

it can be used as a method of imagery for a better understanding of some author's points of view
it can be used to emphasize some idea
it can be used to help paint a picture in your mind.

I hope it helped you :)
