PolarNik [594]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the stanza from "Twelfth Song of Thunder."

The voice that beautifies the land!

The voice above,

The voice of the thunder

Within the dark cloud

Again and again it sounds,

The voice that beautifies the land.

Which message does the repetition in the stanza make clear?

The sound of thunder up above, crashing repeatedly, makes the natural landscape beautiful.

The crashing of the thunder as it rolls over the land is everywhere and makes the people nervous.

The thundering sounds of the storm are everywhere and can make nature a dangerous place.

Some thunder is coming over the landscape, but it appears that it will only be temporary.

Answer:

The sound of thunder up above, crashing repeatedly, makes the natural landscape beautiful.

Explanation:

Repetition is a figure of speech that allows the repetition of the same word, or the same syllable in a text. This figure of speech is used to emphasize a term, highlighting its importance for the message conveyed by the text.

In the case of the poem shown above, repetition is used with the word "voice", which is repeated several times to highlight the sound of thunder that embellishes the natural landscape.

What is going on in scene 2 act 1 of macbeth?
beks73 [17]
Duncan (the King of Scotland), his two sons (Malcolm and Donalbain), and Lennox (a Scottish nobleman) hang out with their attendants at a military camp in Scotland.
Lost? Check out this nifty map of major locations in the play.
King Duncan's forces have been busy fighting against the King of Norway and the traitor, Macdonwald.
A wounded Captain arrives, fresh from the field, where he fought to help Duncan's son, Malcolm, escape capture. What's the news?
Well, says the Captain, the battle was going south fast until brave Macbeth fought through the "swarm" of enemy soldiers and disemboweled the traitorous Macdonwald.
There's some gab about Macbeth's great courage in the face of seemingly impossible adversity and the Captain continues his story: after Macbeth spilled Macdonwald's guts all over the ground, the battle flared up again when the "Norwegian Lord" brought new men to the field, but even this didn't daunt Macbeth and Banquo, who just redoubled their efforts.
Oh, but could someone get the Captain a surgeon? He's kind of bleeding all over the place.
The Thane of Ross arrives from another battle, where Macbeth was also kicking serious butt. Sweno, Norway's king, is not allowed to bury his men until he hands over ten thousand dollars to the Scots.
Duncan then proclaims the traitorous Thane of Cawdor will be executed, and Macbeth, responsible for the victory, shall have his title.
Ross is sent to announce the news to Macbeth.

Lisa [10]
The sentence that uses a subjective pronoun correctly is the first one - Laura and I have written an original play for this year's festival.
The second sentence is incorrect because the word him is not subjective, and neither is her in the third sentence, or them in the last one.
