Answer:

The purpose of the last line of the poem is to provide a bitter irony (option A).

Explanation:

The excerpt in the picture was taken from the poem "Richard Cory", by Edwin Arlington Robinson. The poem was written while the American people were still suffering due to the depression of 1893. The speaker in the poem is poor, lives waiting for the light, without meat, eating stale bread. He and others just like him wish to be Richard Cory, a wealthy and elegant man. As the last line reveals, however, being rich is not sufficient for Cory to be happy. While the poor keep on living, working, and struggling, Richard Cory ironically kills himself, even though he has a seemingly perfect life.

The poem "Richard Cory" was adapted into a song by Paul Simon and recorded by Simon & Garfunkel.

“One of my earrings fell off, it rolled under the stove,” is a RUN ON sentence. You can tell by the comma splice (which separates two different, yet complete, thoughts incorrectly through using only commas). You can also tell because it holds two complete sentences without the proper conjunction or punctuation needed to connect them.

To fix a run on, you must use a conjunction (and, but, for, yet, not, or, so) between the two complete thoughts or place a period between them.

Example: one of my earrings fell off. It rolled under the stove.

OR

Example: One of my earrings fell off and it rolled under the stove.

What is the value of virtual currency? Why can virtual currency be so expensive?
amm1812

First of all, I said that these altcoins refer to tokens that are actually implemented using blockchain technology. Instead of issuing tokens for the purpose of circling money and cheating money. Of course, at present, the market has a large amount of money in the money, so it is necessary to do basic work before investing.

The core of blockchain technology is decentralization, and decentralization is distributed accounting. That is, let everyone keep a book together and not tamper with it. To achieve distributed accounting, a large number of participants need the computing power support (centralization is supported by the service provider, so the center can control the data).

Participants will also incur costs if they provide computing power. If no one pays this cost, it will not work unless it is a public interest project. Therefore, the token, which is the so-called altcoin, can be distributed to the provider of the computing power in a rewarding manner, so that the computing provider (now generally called the miner) has a profit.

Therefore, successful blockchain applications can solve problems or improve efficiency and generate revenue, which can cover the cost of distributed accounting.

The virtual currency itself is worthless (but the USDT and XAU are not the same). It’s just being fired. Everyone thinks that this thing will be worth investing and then investing, and its price will naturally rise.

The biggest value is the difficulty of fraud. It is almost impossible to falsify the current state of the art without a large-scale breakthrough in quantum computers. At present, the biggest loss of virtual currency is that hackers have little to do with the virtual currency itself.

The value of money lies in the general equivalent of circulation. As long as such technical requirements are met, and more convenient things are valuable, the value lies in the recognition of its large population.
