There are some similarities to Romeo and Juliet, but also some clear differences. Pyramus and Thisbe lived next to each other, which is different. ...

Since the only way to find out if a line is written in a trimeter, or pentameter, etc. is to count the number of syllables, and then divide that number by two to get the meter, that is exactly what we are going to do here.
This line has 8 syllables: (a tree whose hung- ry mouth is prest), we should divide it by 2, which equals 4.
So, the correct answer is that this line is an example of iambic tetrameter. Tetra means 4.

Movies and books have similarities and differences; but it seems that the differences outweigh the similarities. Both can be used to express fiction; entertain; and be enjoyed by young and old alike. However, books and movies differ in the use of imagination; duration or length of time; audience; and interpretation.

Fiction can be told through books and movies. In fact, a number of movies are adaptations of the novel or book form. Maze Runners and Harry Potter are examples of books turned into movies. Secondly, both are forms of entertainment. Reading fiction or watching a movie entertain us and make us relax. Finally, both can be enjoyed by the young and the old. There is no age limit to being able to get access to books and movies especially now that we have the Internet.

On the other hand, in matters of the use of imagination, the printed form can be limitless. Since movies are visually presented, the audience becomes a passive spectator of the series of events and characters presented to him. Secondly, books take time to finish depending on the age and reading speed of the readers. In contrast, movies can be done in an hour or two. There are even Indie (independent) films that are less than an hour in length. Thirdly, books can only be enjoyed by a single person; while movies can be shared with friends and loved ones at home or in the cinemas which can be more fun. Finally, in matters of interpretation, the printed form can have more details that the interpretation could be different depending on the reader’s age, experience and culture. However, movies are often interpreted by the director or producers and have to suit certain conditions such as budget, target audience, and censorship.

Overall, despite the differences, books and movies have undeniably been great companions of human experience, where a person can escape into some place and time that he can control. Whether the story has a tragic or happy ending, it is still worth our time and experience.

Personally, I prefer good movies spent on Friday nights with my friends. Nothing can beat the relaxing time spent sharing popcorn and soda.

Which sentence best states the main idea of the selection?

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

C) Little Free Libraries are growing in popularity around the world because they bring neighbors together and make books more accessible.

Explanation:

A. is not the right answer. While DooSun liked building Little Free Libraries because, as he says, books are equal to treasure and he wanted to share it, this is not the main concept of the selection. DooSun‘s story is only part of the text.

B. is not correct. Little Free Libraries are not built by gathered funds, but by individual people.

C. is the correct answer. The point of the excerpt is to tell the story of a few Little Free Libraries and how they grow around the world. The text tries to explain this is because people feel a sense of community, as this way they can share their experiences about books with the neighbors since Little Free Libraries make reading more accessible to all in the area.

D. is not the correct answer. While Little Free Libraries are hand build boxes for various novels, this is just an explanation of what they are and not the main idea of the text.
