Answer:
Imagery
Explanation:
Imagery is a literay device used by author to appeal to the sense of sight of the readers. Using this device, the author is able to create a vivid picture through word choice enabling the readers to see what the author is seeing or wants his/her readers to see.
In the given excerpt, the literary device used by James Joyce is imagery. In his short story entitled 'Araby', Joyce has created a vivid picture through his words, enabling readers to imagine the created scene.
Examples of imagery can be found in phrase such as <em>'We walked through the flaring streets...', 'jostled by loud men and bargaining women...; 'shrill litanies of shop-boys ...',</em> etc.
Thus the correct answer is imagery.
Answer:
Li-Young Lee’s “For a New Citizen of These United States” appeared in the poet’s second collection, The City in Which I Love You, published in Brockport, New York, in 1990. Like the majority of Lee’s poems, this one is based on his memories of a turbulent childhood, beginning with his family’s escape from Indonesia by boat in the middle of the night when he was only two years old. The past often plays a significant role in Lee’s poetry, for it is something he feels is always there— that, unlike a country or a prison, history is inescapable. But not all of the poet’s relatives and friends who endured the same fears and upheaval of life in exile share his notion of an unavoidable past. “For a New Citizen of These United States” addresses a “you” who is not specifically identified but who appears to be an acquaintance of Lee’s from the time of their flight from Indonesia. In this poem, the person spoken to is not enamored of things from the past, as Lee is, and seems not to recall any of the events and settings that Lee describes. Although the poem’s speaker—Lee himself, in this case—pretends to accept his acquaintance’s lack of interest and real or feigned forgetfulness of their shared history, his tone of voice and subtle sarcasm make it clear that he is frustrated by the other’s attitude. This premise dominates the poem from beginning to end.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
It has 2, because O is not Oh, if it was, it would count as a syllable.
Two points (2) - ten points (10)
Basically, the problem looks like: 2 - 10.
Since the 2 is in front and not the 10, the answer is going to be a negative.
Add 2 - 10 as if the 10 was in the front to get 8. Then, put a negative sign in front of it to make it the correct answer.
Answer: -8
