The correct answer is A. es

Explanation:

In the English language the plural of nouns is usually formed by adding -s to the nouns, for example, the plural of cat is <em>cats</em>, and the plural of house is <em>houses</em>. However, there are cases in which adding only "s" is not correct as the way the plural of nouns is formed also depends on the ending of nouns. In this way according to grammar if the noun ends in <em>sh, s, ch</em> or <em>x</em> such as clash, match, kiss or box, the plural is formed by adding <em>-es</em>, this means the plural forms are clashes, matches, kisses or boxes and this grammatical rule applies to all nouns ending in <em>sh, s, ch</em> or <em>x</em>. Thus,  to form the plural of a noun ending in <em>s, sh, ch</em> or <em>x</em> it is necessary to ad <em>-es</em>.

2. Which of the following is not an example of war imagery?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

A. "horror bristling round the head”

Explanation:

The given question refers to the poem <em>A Child's Nightmare </em>written by Robert Graves.

The poem begins with some kind of nightmarish creature scaring the narrator when he was a child in his nursery, and then that same creature leaping on him <em>again from the clank of a night train.</em> This is in fact a night train that transported soldiers during the war. From this moment the war imagery begins. Lines <em>when I'm shot through heart and head</em> and <em>nor the stretcher-bearer's cry </em>are from this part of the poem, as well. The only line that is not an example of war imagery as it is from the first part of the poem is line A: <em>horror bristling round the head.</em>
