Which sentence contains an underlined independent clause (parentheses are underlines) PLS HURRY

English
2 answers:
WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
5 0

The sentence that contains an independent clause is option B) “Norman now has a job at the high school”.

Independent clauses have meaning by themselves and don’t need other words. They have a subject and predicate as a simple sentence.  

Option A) is not correct since the clause is incomplete; the part “at the high school” is an adverbial phrase of place that adds meaning to the independent clause.  

Option C) is incorrect as the clause “though he is hoping to find work with the country” does not have meaning by itself and needs additional information.  

Option D) is also incorrect since the phrase “to find work with the country” is a prepositional clause that modifies the verb “hope”.

Which statement about poetry is accurate?
gulaghasi [49]

Poems are written to evoke emotions in readers is the most accurate. All writing is used to create some type of response from the readers even if it's merely to gain knowledge. Poetry especially is designed to create an emotional response. This is because poetry often uses the most concise language possible to not only convey it's subject but also the speaker's feelings toward the subject.

Wrong Answers

All poems do not have a rhyme pattern. A rhyming pattern exists when there is purposeful rhyme between lines that often follows a structure. For example, Shakespearean sonnets follow a very clear rhyme scheme ABAB CDCD EFEF GG. However, this is not required for something to be considered a poem. In fact, free verse poetry is poetry that follows no structure at all. It has no rhyming pattern, no meter, and no structure.

Poetry does not have to contain similes or metaphors. A simile is a comparison between two things with using like or as: The girl ran like a cheetah. A metaphor is a comparison between two things without using like or as: The girl was a cheetah running down the track. Some poems contain none of these types of figurative language while other poems are an extended metaphor in themselves.

Poetry is made up of verses called lyrics. Lyric poetry is made up of different verses and often has a very clear rhyme and meter. This is just one form of poetry, but it can not be applied to all poetry. Meter is the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables within a line of poetry. Shakespeare often wrote his poetry in iambic pentameter. This is a pattern of 10 syllables per line of poetry alternating stressed and unstressed syllables.
