The correct answer is C. If the cat meows one more time – I know he will – I am going to have to get the treats.

Explanation:

In grammar, one of the main uses of em dashes (–) is to replace parentheses or commas to introduce further explanations, extra information, examples or comments, usually by enclosing the information in em dashes. In the case of the sentence "If the cat meows one more time I know he will I am going to have to get the treats" the information that is a comment or remark is "I known he will" because this is thought of the speaker and does not grammatically belong to the sentence and therefore should be enclosed using em-dashes. This means the sentence that shows the correct use of em dashes is " If the cat meows one more time – I know he will – I am going to have to get the treats".

If I am not mistaken, I believe it should be 'A', if you meant "the gold and brown puzzle pieces are on the cats head" not "the gold and brown puzzle pieces are the cat's head".

Read the passage below and answer the question.

Answer:

The poetic technique being used by Whitman is:

B. end-stopped lines

Explanation:

As we know, Walt Whitman is considered the father of free verse, which means he is NOT concerned with regular meter, rhythm, or rhymes in his poems. We could easily eliminate options A, C, and D with that knowledge. Still, even if people do not know that fact about Whitman, they could analyze the lines provided:

I see something of God each hour of the twenty-four, and each moment then, In the faces of men and women I see God, and in my own face in the glass. (lines 1281 – 1282)

As the end of each syntactic unit -- which can be a phrase, a clause, or a sentence --, the writer uses punctuation to signal a pause. That is known as end-stopped lines. As we can see in the lines above, Whitman chose to use commas between each unit. That is how he shows the audience there is a pause between them.
