Answer:

The purpose that the repeated tapping sound at the door serves in Edgar Allan Poe's "the raven" for is that It builds suspense.

Explanation:

"The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, uses assonance in the first stanza when he introduces the idea of somebody or something tapping at the door, "While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, / As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door" he uses different devices in this lines to generate expectation on the reader.

How are the sentence patterns for asking questions different from the sentence patterns for making statements?
Sindrei [870]
The answer is B. This includes helping verbs or modals like have, could would and adverbs like who, what, where, when, why and how.
A is not the answer, I like cake vs. What is your name? both are short and statements like this are common. 
C is not the answer because we often use pronouns in questions and adjectives are used as descriptions regardless of statement or question. Where is she? What is it? Disprove the pronoun aspect. Is it a blue color? Disproves the adjective aspect.
D is not the answer because of questions of fact like, what time is it? There is no direct or indirect object because the verb is a linking verb, used for a statement, connecting or linking the subject to the fact, without an object.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The ten errors are the one with (*):

One reason for this anxiety is that students are rarely taught to evaluate *their* own work. They have no criterion for *evaluating* their own performance. Instead, they *fell* prey to the whims of chance good or bad marks just happen or depend on luck such as what lecturer they have or *reflect* their level of natural cleverness. This can leave students falling disempowered or *drifted* even if their marks are good. Students can feel very vulnerable and may worry about *suddenly* being exposed as stupid. *Anxiety* may create a vicious cycle such students can not settle down to study can not focus attention can not take *in* what they read or can not remember *what* they learnt and this reinforces their suspicion that really they *lack* intelligence. This is very common so it is important to look on what we mean by intelligence.

Explanation:

1.- Them should be changed for their going from the object pronoun to the possessive adjective.

2.- evaluations changes for evaluating going from the noun to the verb

3.- felt changes to fell felt is for emotions and felt is to become the prey.

4.- The word reflect can be deleted to present two noun phrases as options.

5.- drift changes to drifted to keep cohesion with the previous adjective in the sentence

6.- sudden changes to suddenly going from the adjective to the adverb.

7.- Anxious goes to anxiety from the adjective to the noun.

8.- on goes to in, the use of a different particle gives the idea of absorption of knowledge.

9.- which goes to what to keep a cohesive structure with the previous sentences

10.- lacks goes to lack since it is not a third person and it has to be conjugated differently.
