The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Such shameless Bards we have; and yet 'tis true,
There are as mad, abandon'd Criticks too.
And always List'ning to Himself appears.
All Books he reads, and all he reads assails,
From Dryden's Fables down to Durfey's Tales.""

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.

Explain which cultures values more closely match your own why​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Yes, it is very much true that almost every culture has its own values, ethical paradigms, religion, practices, rituals, norms, educational systems, language and behavioral patterns, but somehow or other they are similar in the basic patterns but with varying intensity. Every culture will have a particular religion which they follow, every culture have a language and rituals, but different cultures have different set of these dimensions and domains. In every culture, men and women live together in some kind of form and arrangements, where some give it legal and religion status as well, whereas, as in some culture living together is more important than any other rule or regulation but pattern of living life is the same. Why this is so, because we are all human beings and we have almost the same needs, state of felt deprivation, we all want to eat something, but we differ when it comes to wants. In some culture, if you are hungry, you can eat pizza, while in some other culture you eat Chicken tikka masala. Difference comes in terms of shape of the rules, but rules are same, you eat, wither it could be pizza or chicken tikka masala.

I think you could pick both B and D in this situation. You didn't include the passage so I have nothing to go on here except my little knowledge of the story from when I read it.
