Answer:

The supporting details provide examples and claims in support of the central claim/ ideas that an author may make in his/ her work.

Explanation:

The central idea of a text is the main idea or point that the author wants to make in his text. This presents the main idea(s) for the understanding of the audience/ readers and makes a unified claim of what the story is about.

The supporting ideas of a text are the ideas or claims/ arguments, examples, or statements that give an explanation or support for what the main claim(s) is. This is like an evidence/ proof of what the author claims in his text.

So, when the supporting ideas are present in any text, they act as the support for any claim that an author may make. Without these supporting details, it can be a bit difficult for readers to understand or even accept the claims made by the author. Thus, the <u>central idea and the supporting details work hand in hand, in that the supporting details act as the "support" or proof of the claims made in the central idea.</u>

The Rhyme scheme is ABAB while for imagery, the use of descriptive phrases like "fearful color" help the reader visualise the frog.

Analogy is used to compare the frog to a cheerful tune.

<h3>What are sound devices?</h3>

Sound devices are a type of figurative language which use repeating and similar sounds to add emotional effects to a writing.

The sound devices used include: friendly frog, squeak, steep sun heats the streamline, and tearful teeth.

Imagery used include fearful color, peaches of June, and cheerful tune.

Figurative speech used include <em>compare you to a cheerful tune</em> (analogy) and<em> invading my mind</em> (personification).

In the third stanza, the use of parallelism helps the poem flow.

Therefore, sound devices, imagery, and figurative speech are used in writing to add emotional effects and meaning to writing.

1. Read this paragraph about a college student who is moving into a new apartment:

Ann [662]

I flew up the stairs to my new apartment, opened the door and skipped over the threshold. I examined the room which looked sufficient and felt generous. Excited to get a better view of the surrounding neighborhood, I threw open the windows and was met with a wonderful smell, freshly baked bread. Living next to a bakery would really be amazing. As I sank into the recycled chair in the middle of the room, I wondered what life away from home would be like. I was ready to see what would come next.
