Jocasta is the Queen of Thebes, but it's just not as glamorous as it sounds. By all accounts, it seems like her first marriage with King Laius was a pretty happy one. That is, until he received the prophecy that he was destined to be murdered by his own son<span>. This, of course, is what caused Jocasta and Laius to pierce and bind their one and only child's ankles and send him off to a mountainside to die. (In Ancient Greece, it was common to abandon unwanted children rather than kill them. That way the child's fate was in the hands of the gods, and the parent wasn't considered directly responsible for its death.)</span>

In “Beat! Beat! Drums!” and “Come Up from the Fields Father,” what word choices strike you as most interesting and effective? Ex
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The choice of commanding words "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" and “Come Up from the Fields Father,” at the beginning of the poems are the most striking, interesting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the poet.

Explanation:

Each stanza of the poem, “Beat! Beat! Drums!” starts with the words, "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" to command for playing the instruments so loudly that can spread everywhere in the surrounding atmosphere. Whitman imagines that the sound fills the churches to congregate the scattered crowd, interrupts scholars from studying, disturbs the bride and groom trying to get privacy, and calls the farmers working in their fields. The words so sound cutting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the Civil War.  The rhythmic pulse of the beginning line emphasizes the poem's appeal. The short, recurring syllables mimic the sound of beating drums and blowing bugles.  

Walt Whitman composes “Come up from the Fields, Father,” a poem on the topic of war, more precisely the impact that the involvement of a soldier in the war.  The poem begins on a calm autumn day in Ohio, where a farm was tranquil and amazing.  Abruptly the oldest daughter of the household starts calling “Come up from the Fields, Father,” to hear the sad news that their son has been fighting in the Civil War. The choice of words is accurate to create desired atmosphere of war at tranquil moment. Sound impact and alliteration of the properly placed words are the most interesting and effective.

How do Uncle Carlos and Mav disagree about what happened to Khalil? chapter 4 The Hate U Give
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Uncle Carlos believes that the policeman did not kill Khalil for racism, but because he was a drug dealer. Mav, on the other hand, believes that Khalil was a victim of racism, since he was not armed, carrying drugs or weapons at the time he was murdered.

Explanation:

Khalil. a black boy, was killed in a police approach while picking up a hairbrush in his car. The policeman hit Khalil with several shots, and Khalil posed no threat.

Uncle Carlos, a black policeman, does not believe that the policeman was acting out of racism, since Khalil disobeyed him and was a boy who, in fact, was involved in the drug tafico. However, Mav knows that Khalil was not on drugs or weapons at the time and that he suffered abuse of police authority, as well as racism.
