what upsets Scout about her costume? What literary device is at work here in To Kill a Mockingbird Chapter 28

1 answer:

7 0

Scout says she doesn't mind being a ham for the performance, but the costume is not comfortable. Scout lists the many discomforts of her costume saying, "it was hot, it was a close fit; if my nose itched I couldn’t scratch, and once inside I could not get out of it alone." We know Scout wants to be as independent as possible, so her needing help to take off the costume is a major problem for her. This also hints that there may be a situation in which Scout's costume becomes problematic because she can't get out of it along. This literary device is foreshadowing - it's showing that some trouble might befall Scout because she can't get out of the ham costume.

Because Jeremy's arm was clearly injured, the play clock was stopped.

The correct answer is C. adverb clause. First of all, you have to know that this is a dependent clause, meaning that it cannot stand on its own (the way independent clauses can), but rather it has to belong to another sentence. So, A is incorrect. Dependent clauses can be noun clauses, adverb clauses, and adjective clauses. Noun clauses function as nouns, adjective clauses as adjectives, and adverb clauses as adverbs. Adverb clauses answer the questions such as When?, Where, Why?, which is the case here, which is why C is the correct answer.

Match each line of poetry to its meter.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Iambic tetrameter- excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change (Louise Bogan, "A Tale")

excerpt 2: This coyness, lady, were no crime. (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress")

Iambic trimeter- excerpt 3: In some melodious plot (John Keats, "Ode to a Nightingale")

excerpt 4: Of credit and renown (William Cowper. "The Diverting History of John Gilpin")

Explanation:

The meter of poetry is the rhythmic structure of a line in poetry. This means the beats in the line of poetry follow a certain pattern, which becomes the meter.

Iambic tetrameter consists of four iambic feet in a line, with eight syllables. On the other hand, iambic trimeter is when the line has three units, meaning six syllables.

Thus, the given lines of poetry with their respective meter patterns are as follows-

Iambic tetrameter-

excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change (Louise Bogan, "A Tale").

excerpt 2: This coyness, lady, were no crime. (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress").

Iambic trimeter-

excerpt 3: In some melodious plot (John Keats, "Ode to a Nightingale").

excerpt 4: Of credit and renown (William Cowper. "The Diverting History of John Gilpin").
