Answer:

The answer is option 4. Unoka

Explanation:

In literature, the foil refers to a character who differs in many aspects from the protagonist, becoming the opposite of this one. In <em>“Things that fall apart” </em>by Chinua Achebe Unoka is Okonkwo’s father. He is the foil because, unlike Okonkwo, he was not masculine and hated to see blood. That is why he did not become a warrior. For this reason, Okonkwo never liked his father's personality.

Why do you think Icarus does not heed his father warning?
worty [1.4K]
I think Icarus didn't heed his fathers warning because he wanted to experience the rush of being free and being able to fly. He thought his father only wanted to keep him close and keep him from having fun, so he disobeyed and tried to see how high he could fly, and the wax wings melted and he landed in the ocean.

new governments provide security

long-term governments should not be changed lightly

How does enjambment effect the meaning and emotion of a poem?
olga nikolaevna [1]
It keeps the poem moving forward and is often used to soften a rhyme. When a line ends with the rhyme it can sound too 'rhymy'...enjambment helps soften this by keeping the flow so it moves past the rhymed word and the rhyme almost appears to be an internal one. Listen: 

<span>Winners must choose </span>
<span>The deaf cannot hear </span>
<span>Drunkards love booze </span>
<span>Muds far from clear </span>

<span>now try, </span>

<span>sometimes we choose </span>
<span>to listen but not hear </span>
<span>the truth found in booze </span>
<span>when our thinking's less clear </span>

<span>Although not a great poetic stanza, the lines are enjambed and flow from line to line keeps the rhymes from sounding so rhymy. </span>

<span>Enjambment can also assist the poet when the rhymed word "is" in the middle of a sentence and the previous sentence's thought ends before the end of a line...for example: </span>

<span>Freighted with hope, </span>
<span>Crimsoned with joy, </span>
<span>We scatter the leaves of our opening rose; </span>
<span>Their widening scope, </span>
<span>Their distant employ, </span>
<span>We never shall know. And the stream as it flows </span>
<span>Sweeps them away.... </span>

<span>The sencond to last line posted shows how the previous line's sentence ended mid-line. The new sentence picks up and the word "flows", which makes the line rhyme with "rose" three lines earlier, goes almost unnoticed. This is an outstanding example of good enjambment. </span>
