Answer:

The words are not compound in nature. They are simply a collection of nouns all of which historically were a source of energy for train locomotives.

Explanation:

In order to qualify for a compound noun, a word must be made up of two or more nouns. For example, "tooth"  and "Paste" are nouns all by themselves.

They can be put together to form <u>toothpaste</u>. Another example would be "web" and "page". Together, we have "webpage".

The words indicated above don't pass for adjectives, verbs and or adverbs in the context in which they have been used.

Cheers!

Which line from the poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies’” by Robert Hayden includes an allusion?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: “Today as the news from Selma and Saigon.”

An allusion is a figure of speech in which the author references an object or event from a different context. The audience is meant to make the connection and understand how these two topics are related.

In this case, Hayden makes an allusion to major events in the 1960s. Selma refers to the Selma to Montgomery Marches of 1965, a series of marches within the Civil Rights Movement. On the other hand, Saigon refers to the Vietnam War, as the city played an important role during this conflict.
