Question: Which words are used to create alliteration in this excerpt from Samuel Taylor’s Coleridges Kubla Kahn

Options:  

• A. Here and were  

• B. There and here  

• C. Sunny and spots  

• D. Gardens and bright

Answer: The correct answer is option: <u>D. Gardens and bright.  </u>

Explanation: Alliteration is the conspicuous repetition of identical initial consonant sounds with associated syllables within a group of words. The spelling may vary.  

* In Samuel Taylor's poem, we can read the following:  

<em>''...And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,  </em>

<em>Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;  </em>

<em>And here were forests ancient as the hills,  </em>

<em>Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.'' </em>

This poem, mentions gardens bright and two lines later, in the same position, it mentions forests ancient. Gardens and forests are both nouns and bright and ancient are both adjectives. These words have similar syllable sounds and they are placed in a group of words with some type of conspicuous repetition. This is known as alliteration.

PLEASE ANSWER
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: For every 10˚ slope, the fire will double its speed. For example, if a fire is travelling at 5 km per hour along flat ground and it hits a 10˚ slope it will double in speed to 10 km per hour up the hill.

By increasing in speed the fire also increases in intensity, becoming even hotter.

The opposite applies to a fire travelling downhill. The flames reach less fuel, and less radiant heat pre-heats the fuel in front of the fire. For every 10˚ of downhill slope, the fire will halve its speed.

Fires tend to move more slowly as the slope decreases.

Vegetation (fuel)

Grass can burn early and quickly on hot, dry, windy days.  

Branches, twigs and leaves dropped from shrubs and trees become fine fuels, which burn easily. These can give off far more heat when they burn

Fibrous and dry tree bark can carry fire to treetops. The fire can then break away and spread further

Dry branches, twigs and leaves and other fine fuels found on the ground can also burn easily.

Weather conditions

Bushfires are unpredictable and vary greatly according to weather conditions. They often start on hot, dry, windy days.

Temperature

A string of hot days dries out vegetation, making it easier to burn. This can be made even worse by underlying dry conditions caused by lack of rain.  

The drier the vegetation the easier it will burn.

A fire spreads as a result of burning embers, radiant heat and direct flame contact.

Wind

Wind influences the:

speed at which a fire spreads

direction in which a fire travels and the size of the fire front

intensity of a fire – wind provides more oxygen

likelihood of spotting – burning pieces of leaves, twigs and bark (embers) that the wind carries ahead of the fire. These cause new 'spot fires' to ignite.

Wind change

A change in wind direction is one of the most dangerous influences on fire behavior. Many people who die in bushfires get caught during or after a wind change.

In Victoria, hot, dry winds typically come from the north and northwest and are often followed by a southwest wind change. In this situation the side of the fire can quickly become a much larger fire front.
