And neigh like Boanerges. That's the sound a horse makes so it makes sense.

Answer: The sound imageries are found in the first line of last stanza  the words "neigh" and "Boanerges."  

Explanation:

This poem called "I Like to See it Lap The Miles" was written by Emily Dickinson.  It's a four stanza poem where a train is compared to a horse. There's mostly visual imagery. The train passes on valleys and mountains, stops for fuel and it goes downhill. In the last stanza, however, we can find two words that describe the sound that the train makes:  "neigh" and "Boanerges". "Neigh" is the loud sound made by a horse. "Boanerges" is a vociferous ( i.e loud and forceful) preacher. These two words help to convey  the loud powerful noise a train makes when blowing the horn. It's making a stop like a horse stops at a stable.

Which dialogue is punctuated
Rom4ik [11]

The correct answer is A. The captain said, "But he needn't come round when you are on watch, Mr. Brown."

Explanation

There are many rules for correct writing. One of them states that when quotation marks are used, the period at the end of the sentence must be placed within quotation marks. On the other hand, another grammar rule states that when an introductory sentence is given, it must be separated from the quotation by a comma. According to the above rules, the correct answer is A. because the introductory part "The captain said" is separated from the second part of the sentence using a comma. Also, the second part of the sentence that is between the quotation marks, places the final period within the quotation marks. So the correct answer is A. The captain said, "But he needn't come round when you are on watch, Mr. Brown."

Read the following passage from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby:
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The correct option is A.
The impact of the text above is that the author condemned the lack of character of Daisy and Tom and left the readers angry about the lack of serious thought of these two characters. Daisy and Tom, who happened to be husband and wife are very good when it comes to using people to achieve their own personal goals and aims and then disposing them after achieving their aims.<span />
