Answer:

C). Parallelism.

Explanation:

'Parallelism' is demonstrated as the literary device that involves repetition of words, or phrases with similar or parallel grammatical structure, meter, or sound, etc. It allows the author to propose a pattern as well as a rhythm that promotes the smooth flow of ideas and enhance its persuasiveness.

In the given passage from 'The Grapes Of Wrath', the author employs 'parallelism' which is reflected through the repetition of the phrase 'could not', 'the land', etc. that offers a balance and rhythm to it. It allows the smooth transition of ideas and enhances the understanding and persuasiveness for the readers. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

The inference that can be drawn from "To Autumn" is:

A. Autumn is a peaceful and abundant season, full of natural beauty.

The evidence that supports the answer in Part A is:

A. "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness . . . Conspiring . . . how to lead and bless With fruit the vines . . . And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core."

Explanation:

John Keats was an English Romantic poet, born in 1795, dead in 1821 at the age of only 25. In his poem "To Autumn", Keats describes the season with vivid imagery, praising its abundance. Especially in the first stanza, Keats describes in detail how fruitful autumn is - how fruits and flowers are abundant. They grow ripe, succulent and sweet, thanks to blessed autumn. Keats does not describe autumn as being inferior to spring. Quite the contrary, he says both seasons have their songs. He also describes the transition from autumn to winter beautifully, peacefully. There is no sadness in his description, but the very opposite, with images of noisy animals, rivers, and winds.
