Montag is sent over the edge when the women begin to talk politics. It is clear from their discussion that they voted based on trivial, materialistic factors rather than the candidates stance on issues. He listens to the discuss how they voted based on the candidates' looks, names, and mannerisms. It drives him over the edge and he compares them to monsters. He says, "did you hear these monsters talking about monsters?"
Before he is driven over the edge, he "stood looking at the women's faces as he had once looked at the faces of saints in a church he had entered when he was a child."

A bald eagle and a golden eagle are occasionally seen in secluded places. (Identify the adjectives

kherson [118]

Adult golden and bald eagles have distinguishing characteristics in their coloring making it easy to identify the species. Both are large birds with dark brown bodies. The adult bald eagle has a noticeable white head and tail while the golden eagle has a brown head with “golden” feathers on the back of their necks. The adult bald eagle has a large, yellow beak, while the golden has a slightly smaller black beak. Golden eagles are referred to as booted eagles, since they are feathered all the way down their legs to the tops of their feet, while the bald eagle’s feathers stop a few inches from the tops of their feet.

Answer:

a) Blank verse.

Explanation:

Blank verse is a form of poetry writing that has no specific rhyming sequence. It may be written in iambic pentameter, meaning ten syllables in a line but at times not all lines. The unstressed syllables are followed by the stressed syllables but they do not have any rhyming sequence.

In the lines from the poem given in the question, the lines do use iambic pentameter like-

Women of Adamant, fair neophytes—

Who thirst for such instruction as we give,

where the underlined words are the unstressed syllables while the ones in bold are the stressed syllables.

This un-rhyming verse form is also sometimes known as the heroic verse.
