Answer: The poem talks about how schoolchildren went through atomic bomb drills during the Cold War.

Explanation: At the beggining, when the character <u>describes his kindergarten school hallway</u>, he shows how the children were lead when there was an atomic bomb drill alert, specially when he mentions the position in which they had to stay ("[...] pressing our heads/between our knees, waiting.") Then, he <u>describes a classmate, Annette, that was probably killed during one of the drills when he says "Why Annette? There's nothing/to be upset about - "</u>, and reflects on <u>what is going to happen because of the war</u>. He realizes that <u>the most dangerous things aren't the bombs, but the war itself, if it keeps going on and on</u>, as he shows in "it is the days, the steady/pounding of days, like gentle rain,/ that will be our undoing."

Is this an iambic? The ocean symbolized his death.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
It isn't. An iambic pentameter needs 5 iambic "feet" - 5 sets of unstressed then stressed syllables, i.e the Ocean SYMboLISED his DEATH and LIFE.

What is the degree of comparison of the underlined modifier? This is the best omelet I have ever had.
lukranit [14]
Superlative means exaggerated.
Comparative means it is being compared to something else.
Positive is self-explanatory.

Honestly this is a hard one because usually when someone says something is "the best" they are exaggerating. Also when you say something is the best, youare saying that the other things you have tasted aren't as good which compares the omelet. Since your not saying the omelet is bad it is a good (positive) comparison. I think the closest answer is comparative for the reasons above.
