Answer: personification and alliteration

Personification refers to the use of human qualities to describe animals, inanimate objects, abstract ideas or natural phenomena. In this case, the author gives "autumn" qualities that belong to humans, such as "sitting careless on a granary floor."

Alliteration refers to the repetition of identical initial consonant sounds, even when spelled differently. It is also called "initial rhyme." In this case, the author uses alliteration when he says "winnowing wind."

Read the descriptions of rhyme schemes below.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The poem "Harlem" uses the free verse form of poetry.

Explanation:

Langston Hughes' poem "Harlem" was written in the form of a free verse which means that there is no specific rhyme scheme or meter form. Free verse poems are nonetheless poetic. The absence of any consistent rhyme scheme did not defer in the poem's meaningful expression of the poem.

Hughes'<em> "Harlem"</em> is in the form of a question which the poet directed to the readers. The poem goes like this-

<em>What happens to a dream deferred? </em>

<em>      Does it dry up </em>

<em>      like a raisin in the sun? </em>

<em>      Or fester like a sore— </em>

<em>      And then run? </em>

<em>      Does it stink like rotten meat? </em>

<em>      Or crust and sugar over— </em>

<em>      like a syrupy sweet? </em>

<em />

<em>      Maybe it just sags </em>

<em>      like a heavy load. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>      Or does it explode?</em>

There are no specific rhyming scheme though some words do rhyme in some lines (sun/run, meat/sweet etc). But overall, there is no indication of any sense of rhyming or meter form.

Select a contemporary television or Internet sitcom to compare to the typical classic/early
maria [59]

Answer:

The Simpsons is a contemporary television show.

Explanation:

The Simpsons is related to the classic tv show "The Addams Family",

Both shows have the same characteristics because they both have a not normal or a dysfunctional family.

These well known comedies are different because whereas The Addams Family is morbid and mysterious, The Simpsons is predictable, and shows the struggles an American family faces.

Hope this helps!
