Which is the strongest revision of the following sentence?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

A) Students will be allowed to eat lunch on the hill outside of the cafeteria if they keep quiet, avoid entering other buildings, and clean up their trash afterward.

Explanation:

The first part of the answer (if they keep quiet) is alluded to by the first part in the text <em>(can not be noisy)</em>. This phrase does not require a reduction in the level of noise, but a total absence of it.

The second part of the answer (avoid entering other buildings) is alluded to by the third part of the sentence<em> (and not enter other buildings during lunch)</em>. The two phrases change just in word order and selection. The resemblance is clear.

The third part of the answer (clean up their trash afterward) is alluded to by the second part of the sentence <em>(have all their trash picked up)</em>. The two sentences are, again, the same meaning in different word choices.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

They allow the narrative to have a melody created through rhyme and structuring.

Explanation:

Alliteration, caesura and kennings are figures of speech capable of developing a musical, rhythmic and harmonious effect in a text. The use of these figures was very influential in the epic poem Beowulf, especially in the most important points of the narrative, such as the moment of the fight between Beowulf and the monster Grendel. This influence is due to the fact of the musicality created by these figures of language, through the rhyme and the structure that they create. This meant that the poem could be easily sung, in addition to being recited, since they had an applicable rhythm for songs.
