Answer:

The poetic technique being used by Whitman is:

B. end-stopped lines

Explanation:

As we know, Walt Whitman is considered the father of free verse, which means he is NOT concerned with regular meter, rhythm, or rhymes in his poems. We could easily eliminate options A, C, and D with that knowledge. Still, even if people do not know that fact about Whitman, they could analyze the lines provided:

I see something of God each hour of the twenty-four, and each moment then, In the faces of men and women I see God, and in my own face in the glass. (lines 1281 – 1282)

As the end of each syntactic unit -- which can be a phrase, a clause, or a sentence --, the writer uses punctuation to signal a pause. That is known as end-stopped lines. As we can see in the lines above, Whitman chose to use commas between each unit. That is how he shows the audience there is a pause between them.

Why does Margie ask, “A man? How could a man be a teacher?”
laila [671]

Answer:

i am not really sure but maybe because they are so strict and also they are teaching little girls and men sometimes abuse girls. This gender disparity in the teaching profession is unfortunate because it is critically important for young boys to see positive male role models in their lives. Many male teachers share similar interests with their male students, which serve as a great conduit for meaningful connection.

How does the poet’s reference to the portrayal of love in films and songs contribute to the poem’s meaning
frozen [14]

This question is about the poem "What Love Isn't"

Answer:

They contribute by showing that lived love is very different from assisted or heard love.

Explanation:

The poem shows that experiencing love is completely different from everything we watch or hear, especially in relation to the films, because the films show an easy love, where everything is resolved quickly with happiness and joy. However, in real life, love goes through very difficult trials that can often overcome love.

Music on the other hand, has a more realistic view of love, but also idealized and very particular to the singer and composer. Since, each person has a different experience on how to love.
