The lines from the excerpt of Edgar Allan Poe’s "The Raven" that uses allusion are:

2. Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!

4. And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
6.And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor

One of the most remarkable aspects of the poem "The Raven" is the fact that Poe succeeds in creating a somber, scary mood. He does so through a variety of devices.

Poe creates the desired mood through his use of language. He employs words that convey a negative or worrisome mood. He is also able to employ language that is vivid and creates an image in the reader's mind.

There are other two elements that significantly contribute to the mood of the poem. The first one is that of rhyme and repetition. His use of rhyme and repetition allows the poem to gain intensity. It also gives the reader a sense of progession and cadence. The second element is that of the raven itself. The raven is associated with "dark" matters, such as witchcraft and death. It is also known for being able to utter human speech. This makes the raven both believable and ominous in the story.

If you were a foreign visitor to the United States, what might you conclude from watching how we watch and play sports? present
tino4ka555 [31]

As a foreign visitor, I with soon understand that sports are fantastic because they mimic life, such as it being often unclear who won and who lost, who's good and who's bad, even when the contest stops and starts -- and the rules are only sometimes enforced. In sports, they have uniforms and referees and strict rules to tell us all that. It's just a small planned game of life, but more tidy.

Watching sports feels like war to many of us like sucking on a soother, feels like nursing to a baby. It's not at all the real thing, but often close enough to satisfy. I'm just scratching the surface, though, of what it is that makes so many of us love sports so deeply. Even a new fan like a foreign visitor.They have much to learn at first, but are soon obsessed with rules, fairness and limitations.

How might the different connotations of words affect a play and its audience?<br> PLEASE EXPLAIN.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the end of World War II the Allies Powers sent a message to the Japanese demanding surrender. The Japanese responded with the word mokusatsu, which translates as either "to ignore" or "to withhold comment". The Japanese meant that they wished to withhold comment, to discuss and then decide. The Allies translated mokusatsu as the Japanese deciding to ignore the demand for surrender. The Allies therefore ended the war by dropping the bomb and transforming the world we live in forever.

The effect that words can have is incredible: to inform, persuade, hurt or ease pain, end war or start one, kill thousands or even millions of people. They can get your point across, or destroy any hope of your ideas ever being understood. A major element of advertising is the words, which ones and in what order. The following is a discussion of words and how to use them to the greatest effect in advertising.

Select the correct text in the passage.
ipn [44]
<span>He put a bullet through his brain.
No one spoke of him again.
This I would believe the answer to be, it talks about him never people never speaking of him again and no one caring for him anymore. 

</span><span>If in some smothering dreams you too could pace 
</span>I believe that this means that the author just wants more people to remember the soliders.


Have a great day and I hope that my answer could help! If you need anymore help let me know or send me a dm.

Genrish500 [490]
<span> She went to the open door and stood in it and looked out among the tomato vines and “jimpson” weeds that constituted the garden. 

That sentence helps the reader infer that it is summertime, because it shows that the garden is flourishing. </span>

No one would ever know precisely how many Philadelphians died of yellow fever in 1793. Many of those who traditionally kept such
stira [4]

Answer:

<u>The yellow fever epidemic had lasting consequences for the city.</u>

Explanation:

This is the best answer because the passage is about the deadly and lasting consequences that yellow fever had: the author mentions that an approximate of five thousand people were victims of it, many died, including people like ministers, sextons, and city officials; and those who did not die, had to flee the city. Such mortality rate and mass departure must have changed completely the way people lived back then, it should have been catastrophic for the city, as the author concludes: <em>The fear had gone too deep, the losses were all too real and personal. </em>
