No wax is not a syllable because you can't say it with pauses cause it's a 3 lettered word which will never be a syllable word

To figure out if a word is a closed or open syllable word, look at the vowel (a<span>, </span>e<span>, </span>i<span>, </span>o<span>, </span>u)

wax

open syllables- word ends on a vowel
closed syllables- the vowel is followed by a consonant or more

therefore, wax is a closed syllable

(another example; fro-zen; fro would be the open syllable since it ends on O (vowel); while zen -  the e (VOWEL) is followed by a consonant (n)

Answer:

The answer is, Third-Person Point of View.

Explanation:

There are three different points of view. Point of view is the perspective of the narrator or character in a story.

There is the First-person point of view, second-person point of view and the third-person point of view.

The first-person point of view is usually marked by the use of "I". In this case, you are understanding the story from the narrator's perspective. The narrator also is usually a character in the story and this serves as a first hand account.

Second-person point of view view isn't that commonly used and is marked by the use of "you". It gives the illusion of the narrator speaking directly to the reader.

The third-person point of view as in this poem is marked by the use of "he", "she", "they". The third person point of view may be from a character in the story or from an omniscient perspective where the person knows what's going to happen and seems to be looking down and observing the characters.

In this poem, the third-person point of view is shown by the use of "they". Despite the use of "I" initially, as you read further, you see that the point of view even tends to the omniscient perspective as he seems to know their emotion shown in "In joy they fled before the wind".

Also, it is an account describing other characters in the poem without seeming to be in the story itself. This solidifies it as the third-person point of view.

How can something like McCarthyism be used as a partisan weapon against another political party? Give an example.
yKpoI14uk [10]

McCarthyism is nothing more than a witch hunt.  A lot of finger pointing and not a lot of proof.  Both parties (Democrat & Republican) in the United States use this in todays world.  Ill give examples of both and follow up with how it can be beneficial to each party.

Democrats:  Accuse other politicians of being "racist" or "bigoted" just from political ideas and from certain members of the base.  While it is not fact or true that Republicans are by policy racist, it is a word that is hated by people and has a negative connotation to it, forcing some to keep distance from said person

Republicans:  Accuse other politicians of being "muslin lovers" or "muslins" themselves.  We saw this for the entire Obama presidency.  Congress and some Republican supporters would use the word "muslin" to describe the president in order to give a negative connotation towards Obama.  This has some strong effectiveness due to the recent events (September 11th, 2001).

Both parties are trying to stick a negative idea/precedent/description about the opposition in order to sway votes.  This tactic is very effective because  not only will you sway votes, theres little repercussion in doing so because the people who disagree with you are not going to be swayed, but that voter in the middle who cares about one issue over the other (in this case racism over fear of muslims or vice versa fear of muslims over racism).  

Either someone is intelligent enough to know the rhetoric between the two parties and votes by policy (unaffected / no positive or negative response), they don't care about either issue (unaffected / no positive or negative response), or someone is strongly in favor of one or the other (strong positive or negative response).

While there are some attempts that have been made and can be made that would be so egregious that most people have a negative response, but that rarely happens and would be deemed political suicide.  

Hope this helps.
