4. What effect does the repetition of the last 2 lines have on
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

I AM A CERTIFIED EDUCATOR

Repetition is a technique that many poets use to great effect. Some of the reasons poets use repetition are to enhance the lyricism of the poem, to create cohesion within the poem, and to reinforce the meaning of the poem. Two specific types of repetition used in poetry are a refrain and anaphora. A refrain repeats words between stanzas; anaphora repeats the same words at the beginning of subsequent sentences or clauses. In Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade," he uses both types of repetition to create the three effects noted.

In stanza 1, the words "half a league" are repeated three times in succession. This is a type of anaphora. This repeating phrase increases the lyricism of the poem, that is, it makes an appealing sound to our ears. Because the phrase has a special rhythm, called dactylic, it is especially pleasing. This same rhythm is repeated in each stanza, lending cohesion to the poem, helping it hold together as a unit. The dactylic rhythm gives the feeling of riding horseback, and that reinforces the meaning of the poem. To repeat "half a league" three times helps the reader get the feeling of being a cavalryman on horseback getting closer and closer to to desired destination.

In stanza 3, the words "cannon to right of them, / Cannon to left of them, / Cannon in front of them" are mirrored by the similar but slightly different words at the beginning of stanza 5: "cannon to right of them, / Cannon to left of them, / Cannon behind them." Again, this is anaphora. The dactylic rhythm and anaphora continue to be pleasing to the ear while connecting the stanzas to each other. Here the repetition reinforces the meaning of being surrounded by the Russian artillery that bordered three sides of the field the brigade was charging across. The repetition makes readers feel as if they are in the middle of the battle, too. Imagine just saying, "They were surrounded on three sides while charging down the hill." That conveys the meaning, but not the feeling, of being in the battle. The use of repetition allows the reader to enter into the scene emotionally and with the five senses.

The anaphora at the beginning of several stanzas balances out with the refrain at the end of each stanza that refers to the "six hundred" in one way or another. This again enhances the lyric quality of the poem while tying the stanzas and the entire poem together. Thus repetition is a key technique Tennyson uses to immortalize a battle that otherwise may have been lost in the pages of history.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Courageous and determined

The lines are explaining how even though our hearts are beating, they are beating us all the way to the grave. The heart beat is compared to the rhythm of a funeral march with everyone stepping in time. The lines are showing hearts are beating courageously and with determination all the way to the person's death, which is inevitable.

Which best describes the type of appeal used in this part of the speech? a logical appeal an ethical appeal an emotional appeal
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

This is the excerpt the question refers to:

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time the Japanese Government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.

The appeal of that excerpt is: logical appeal

Explanation:

In the excerpt, a logical fact is being pointed at: Japan is very far from Hawaii, and because the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was not only unexpected, but also successful (for the Japanese), it must have been planned many days or weeks ago.

An deadly attack on foreign soil, that is far away from home, cannot be rushed out. It needs planning, and that is obviously what the Japanese did.

The parents of a deviant child often want to find some way to excuse their offspring’s behavior, and it’s common to hear them sa
Alla [95]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A deviant behavior can be defined as the behavioral pattern that stands in the contradiction of the norms of the society.

The Differential association theory was theorised by Edwin Sutherland in 1939. According to this theory of deviance, people tend to learn the values, attitudes, and motives for criminal activities from the people that one is surrounded with. This theory has played a vital role in analysing the behavior and studies of criminology.

In the case, the parents who say that their offsprings have learned the deviant behavior from the company of bad people or crowd resembles the theory of differential association proposed by Edwin.

So, the correct answer is option A.
