→ One syllable words: add “est” to the word. Remember that it’s sometimes necessary to double the final consonant (example: big to biggest).

→ One syllable words ending with an "e", only add "st" (examples: fine to finest or rare to rarest).

→ Two syllable words ending with a "y", change the "y" to an "i" and add "est” (examples: crazy to craziest and silly to silliest).

→ Two and three syllable words use "most" or "least” (examples: most desirable and least expensive).

⇨ Your answer is A -est!

There you go! I hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻

Read this line from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven":
gogolik [260]

The correct answer is C. AH, disTINCtly I reMEMber IT was IN the BLEAK DeCEMber.

Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven," is written in the trochaic octameter. Let us break down what that means:

1. trochaic - this refers to the meter of the poem, trochee. Trochee is the type of meter which consists of two syllables, where the first one is stressed (written in capital letters), and the second one is unstressed (written in lower letters), like in option C

2. octameter - this refers to the number of syllables within the entire line. Octa means eight, and one meter consists of two syllables, so if you multiply those two, you will get the exact number of syllables in one line, which is sixteen.

A) Its a sentence fragment

Explanation:

Sentence fragments are groups of words that look like sentences, but really aren't. To be a sentence, groups of words need to have at least one independent clause. This however does not have a independent clause.

What metaphor does bradbury use to describe the earbuds in mildreds ears? What should alarm the reader about this description
frosja888 [35]

Bradbury describes Mildred’s earbuds as seashells. He uses this metaphor in a reference as people hold a seashell up to one’s ear to hear the sound of the ocean.

This should alarm the reader because the <em>seashells are used by Montag’s society to control information and control potential rebellions</em>. This is a way to control individuals and paint a different reality. Also with the seashells always plugged in <em>people don’t have the time or a silence to listen to their own thoughts.</em>
