Shalnov [3]3 years ago

Answer:

a) Blank verse.

Explanation:

Blank verse is a form of poetry writing that has no specific rhyming sequence. It may be written in iambic pentameter, meaning ten syllables in a line but at times not all lines. The unstressed syllables are followed by the stressed syllables but they do not have any rhyming sequence.

In the lines from the poem given in the question, the lines do use iambic pentameter like-

<u>Wo</u>men <u>of</u> A<u>da</u>mant, <u>fair</u> neo<u>phy</u>tes—

<u>Who</u> thirst <u>for</u> such <u>in</u>struc<u>tion </u>as<u> we</u> give,

where the underlined words are the unstressed syllables while the ones in bold are the stressed syllables.

This un-rhyming verse form is also sometimes known as the heroic verse.

True or False: Making connections in research is an excellent way to illuminate the meaning of a subject.
zhuklara [117]

1. <u>I would say this is true,</u> making connections is an excellent way to help people understand the meaning of a subject.  Especially if you connect something hard to understand with something that is easier to understand.

2. <u>The answer for this question would be D.</u>  If you are looking to understand all perspectives on a topic, you would want to explore opinions from people who both support the topic in addition to people who oppose, as well.  This will guarantee that when you write about a topic. you are not biased to one opinion more than another.   You have to do your research equally.  

3.<u> My answer for this question would be A. Theme.</u>  The theme of a story is the known as the underlying message or "big idea".  I chose A for this question by taking notice of key words from the question such as "<em>main point</em>" and "<em>statement</em>".  Only in the theme of a story will you find the story's statement.

What is a reflective essay?
Vikentia [17]
A reflective essay is your chance to reveal and discuss your own thoughts about a topic. Reflective essays are used as a self-assessment measure of sorts; they allow you to address your experiences and what you’ve gained. You may be asked to write a reflective essay after taking a course, completing a project or partaking in some type of experience. The goal of this essay is to successfully relay your own beliefs, attitudes and observations. In some reflective essays, you’ll be required to support your conclusions by citing materials such as books, journals, articles and other resources.
