Read this excerpt from "The Birches" by Robert Frost. Which line shows enjambment?

English
1 answer:
mario62 [17]4 years ago

Answer:

Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,

Explanation:

In poetry, the term enjambment refers to the continuation of a sentence without a pause beyond the end of a line. In other words, the sentence doesn't end at the end of the verse but rather continues in the next one.

In this example, we see that in line number 2 "And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk" the sentence continues in line number 3 (as the complete sentence would be "and climb black branches up a snow-white trunk towards heaven")

Therefore, we can see that the enjambment is present in line number 3 "Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more"

We can see that lines 4 to 6 (the other answer choices) are complete sentences by themselves so therefore, the correct answer is line number 3.

"Hearing is not Listening."Justify the statement in paragraphs. ​
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Hearing is simply the act of perceiving sound by ear while listening is something you consciously choose to do. Listening requires concentration so that your brain processes meaning from words and sentences. Hearing is much easier than listening. That's why Hearing is not Listening.

One

As discussed, this one needs background

Two

Amy Tan speaks lovingly and with great understanding about her mother's English and how they (mother and daughter) communicate differently when alone, and Amy Tan would say when she is with others who speak formally.

I don't know if you have what Tan said next. It is a great pity if you don't. It is one of the most beautifully written praises that a child can give to a parent: it is the recognition of the child that no matter how broken her mother's English, she knew things that were far more important than grammar and syntax. I'm sorry I digress.

The answer you want is three, backed up by 4, but the real answer is the aqua colored sentence. Tan is admitting that though her mother was in  the room, she (Amy) was using stilted formal language which she realized her mother would never understand, and for herself it sounded phony. She wanted, it is implied, to be speaking in language that her mother could understand.
