Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the D) It makes the poem easy to memorize.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that since many epic poems were meant to be retold orally, their authors incorporated into them poetic devices such as alliteration, which facilitated that endeavor—this was true particularly of Old English and Old German poetry, among others, as exemplified by the poem <em>Beowulf. </em>Alliteration (from the Latin <em>littĕra</em>, "letter") is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in words that are close together in a poem. The alliterative verse replaces other devices that form the poem's metrical structure, such as the rhyme.

How is the speaker's point of view in the poem "Child of the Americas" used to explore cultural identity?
atroni [7]

Answer:

The first-person point of view allows her to claim ownership of her own cultural identity.

Explanation:

<em>Child of the Americas</em> is a poem written by Aurora Levins Morales. It is written from the first-person point of view. This point of view is recognizable by the use of pronouns <em>I</em> and<em> we.</em> The speaker tells about their feelings or events they go through from their own perspective. We can notice this in the given poem starting from the first line: <em>I am a child of the Americas...</em>

Throughout the poem, she tells about her cultural identity and claims ownership of it. She tells about how mixed the culture that surrounds her is and in what way. There is no mention of racism in this poem.

This is why the third option is the correct one.

What does John Smith hope to achieve by writing the excerpt from
VikaD [51]

Answer:

I haven't ready that in a while, but I do remember that John Smith referred to himself in third person rather than first in order to make other people see him as a true hero instead of conceited, because in all reality he was actually quite full of himself. He also refers to the Native Americans with much mockery. So perhaps you could say that John Smith wanted to achieve a heroic status in society.
