Answer:

The rhyme pattern is ABAAB, and the meter is iambic.

Explanation:

If we analyze these two stanzas of the poem in the following way, we can obtain the answer.

  • “They made her a grave, too cold and damp   A (First sound)
  • For a soul so warm and true;     B (Second sound)
  • And she’s gone to the Lake of the Dismal Swamp,  A (Same sound of the first line)
  • Where, all night long, by a fire-fly lamp,   A (Same sound of the first line)
  • She paddles her white canoe.     B (Same sound of the second line)

  • “And her fire-fly lamp I soon shall see,    A (First sound)
  • And her paddle I soon shall hear;    B (Second sound)
  • Long and loving our life shall be,    A (Same sound of the first line)
  • And I’ll hide the maid in a cypress tree,    A (Same sound of the first line)
  • When the footstep of death is near.”   B (Same sound of the second line)

On the other hand, the meter is the patter of stressed and unstressed syllables the Iambic meter patter is unstressed then stressed and it is the one used in this poem.

Why do you believe people are prejudiced agaist those with disabilities the sick the elderly
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: It is my claim that disability prejudice has been viewed through the lens of prejudices such as anti-Semitism, racism, feminism and homophobia – intolerances that may not be pre-existing, but have been generally recognized and theorized earlier in time.

Explanation:

In many ways, this collection of papers on the burgeoning field of national, regional and international instruments directed towards the redress of disability discrimination is really about the existence of disability prejudice. Most of the papers focus on practical or theoretical issues raised by the laws themselves, or the jurisprudential, social and political choices that shape the drafting and enactment of laws. Nonetheless, every paper is built on the conviction that disability prejudice is a fundamental force behind the exclusion of people with disabilities from a myriad of social and economic opportunities, and one author in particular writes in detail about the personal and systemic consequences of persistent disability prejudice and stereotypes

How dose the detail of the children on the spirit’s legs contribute to the overall text?
gtnhenbr [62]

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

How does the detail of the children on the spirit’s legs contribute to the overall text?

A. They represent Ignorance and Want, which the spirit warns Scrooge to beware of.

B. They symbolize two of society’s ills which cling to Christmas: the desire to receive instead of to give, and the failure to acknowledge suffering.

C. They represent Ignorance and Want, two of Scrooge’s faults that hopefully have been corrected by the spirit’s visit.

D. The author likely includes these children to remind readers to care for those in need during Christmas time.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. They symbolize two of society’s ills which cling to Christmas: the desire to receive instead of to give, and the failure to acknowledge suffering.

Explanation:

   Undoubtedly two of the society's ills wich cling to Christmas is the desire to receive, and never think about those who have the least.

This is exactly what the children represent in the spirit's legs. Children with deprivation and poverty while others have everything, and still want more.

This story tells the life of a selfish and sullen man who changes his way of being during a cold Christmas due to the visit of three ghosts, and it is precisely about symbolizing this problem in society, and trying to change it.
