Answer:
Onomatopoeia
Explanation:
The author uses Onomatopoeia in this stanza with the word "babbling." Onomatopoeia is a figure of speech that presents the written sound of the things it intends to describe. I<em>n this case, "babbling" is creating the sound effects describing the low, continuous noise of water flowing over stones, which makes the description more interesting.</em>
Societal changes throughout the world are affecting families and schools. Because the development of children takes place in the context of both fam ily and school, parents, policy-makers and educators must understand the changes that both institutions are undergoing. Although exceptions exist, it is possible to identify five key societal phe
nomena in most regions of the world that directly affect families and how they interact with schools. Increasing urbanization, changes in the labor force (especially the increase in the number of women who work outside the home), new technology (especially television and micro-computers), the growth of knowledge and information, and the movement to decentralize responsibility for people's lives (including education) all have implications for human relationships in general and family life in particular.
Traditionally, the parable of the talents has been seen as an exhortation to Jesus' disciples to use their God-given gifts in the service of God, and to take risks for the sake of the Kingdom of God. These gifts have been seen to include personal abilities ("talents" in the everyday sense), as well as personal wealth.
