Examine the following excerpt from the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," by T. S. Eliot and analyze it closely to dete

rmine its tone. How do the word choices, form, and poetic devices contribute to the tone? What effect do the lines create?
The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening,
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys,
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night,
Curled once about the house, and fell asleep.

the word choices, like yellow fog and yellow smoke, contribute to the tone of a sad environment. lines like the ones below:

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,

The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes

are repeating and emphasizing the sad state of living.

T.S.Eliot wrote the love song in 1910. It is a story of someone living in a smoky city hell who is insecure and lonely.

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,

The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes

Those describes images of a gloomy cityscape where Prufrock lives.

Answer:

Do not play tricks on your neighbors unless you can stand the same treatment yourself. If you can stand tricks being played on you then go right ahead and play tricks on your neighbors. If not then I would just keep a mutal friendship with them. I would not want tricks played on me if they are very big and bad tricks but if they are small and not to messy then i would like it but otherwise no.

Create a claim only from the following prompt (DO NOT WRITE AN ESSAY! JUST CREATE A CLAIM BY RESTATING AND ANSWERING THE PROMPT)
alexandr402 [8]
When writing a claim you need to take a stance on a particular issue. In this case the issue is whether or not "standardized tests are the proper measuring sticks for student performance." This stance should be the first part of your claim. Then follow it up with "because..." and your three reasons.
For example, Standardized tests are a proper measuring stick for student performance because they can test a student's knowledge on a wide range of subjects, they are the same for everyone, and they are an accurate indicator of how well a student will do in their future studies especially for fields like medicine and law.
