It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee
scoray [572]

In this poem, the author employs foreshadowing. Foreshadowing refers to a literary device in which a writer gives the reader a hint of what is to come next in the story. In this example, Poe talks about Annabel Lee, and he tells us the angels in heaven were jealous of the love the lovers felt for each other. He also tells us that Annabel Lee received a chilling wind. These hints suggest that Annabel Lee will die. The effect of this foreshadowing is that it allows suspense to be built in the mind of the reader, pulling him deeper into the story.

Dear Ms. Peacock, I want to ask that the city council reconsider its decision to end the curbside recycling program in our town.
Vladimir [108]

Roxanne's purpose of writing this letter is to convince the city council to restart the curbside recycling program.

Explanation:

The starting statement clearly states that Roxanne wants to ask the city council to reconsider the decision to end the curbside recycling program in their town which means that they are ending the recycling program and Roxanne wants them to restart it as he tells the benefits of the program by stating how it keeps community cleaner and keeps the waste out of landfills by recycling things that would normally go into trash. Hence, we can say that Roxanne's purpose of writing this letter is to convince the city council to restart the curbside recycling program.
