Answer:

The answer is indeed letter A. a repetition of one or two lines used as refrain.

Explanation:

The poem "Do not go gentle into that good night", by Dylan Thomas (1914-1953), is a villanelle. That means it presents five tercets followed by a quatrain; also the rhyming scheme for those lines is: aba, aba, aba, aba, aba, abaa. This poem has two refrains. Refrains are repeated lines that appear as a means of dividing the poem into sections.  The refrains are the bolded lines in the excerpt below:

Do not go gentle into that good night,  

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;  

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.  

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,  

Because their words had forked no lightning they  

Do not go gentle into that good night.  

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright  

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,  

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King, Jr. led a march on Washington, D.C. The speech he gave that day is one of the best known in American history. When people remember the “I Have a Dream” speech, as it has come to be known, they recall King’s message about civil rights. But perhaps the reason it is so memorable is because King was a master of literary and rhetorical devices. His word choice matched the strength of his message.

This lesson plan allows students to review literary terms, rhetorical devices and figurative language with a scavenger hunt through “I Have a Dream” speech. Then you can have students discuss or write about the speech using the literary terminology. This lesson can be modified to work well for everyone from students just learning about metaphor for the first time to AP students reviewing for their upcoming exams.

Give me a quote, (not made by you) which says about how hard grammar is.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

One of the biggest reasons that learning and using grammar correctly is so difficult is that there are so many exceptions to every rule. ... Pay attention to different collocations and especially to phrasal verbs and verbs with prepositions, because those are typically the hardest to remember.
