Answer: A. It connects the man to the spade and the act of digging in the dirt.

In this excerpt, the author uses assonance. Assonance is the resemblance between the sounds of words or syllables. This can occur between their vowels or their consonants. Assonance can have several purposes, such as emphasizing a particular idea, or giving a poem a certain rhythm. In this case, the purpose of using assonance is to connect the man to the spade and to the act of digging in the dirt.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Text structures as the name implies refers to the architecture of a body of a text. There are text structures where the main idea comes before the details.

Others present the cause of an event followed by the effects of the cause. Another typical structure is where the cause follows the effect. The variations go on and on.

Explanation:

As far as the title is concerned, the text structure is most likely to be a Problem/Solutions Structure. From the topic, it is clear that a Beeless world is a problematic situation. The article is likely to expatiate on how Bees support the world and what would happen if they became extinct. It would then proceed to make a recommendation on how to prevent that.
