Answer: Dactylic meter.

Explanation:

In poetry, <em>meter</em> is the pattern of the beats. It is also referred to as a 'foot'. There are certain number of syllables in each foot (often two or three). Different types of meter have different patterns of stressed/unstressed syllables.

Dactyl meter, found in these lines from Robert Browning's poem <em>"The Lost Leader"</em>, has the first syllable stressed and the second and third unstressed.  The pattern is the following:

<em>Just</em><em> for a </em><em>hand</em><em>ful of </em><em>sil</em><em>ver he </em><em>left</em><em> us </em>

<em>Just</em><em> for a</em><em> rib</em><em>and to </em><em>stick</em><em> in his </em><em>coat.</em>

What shift takes place in who is reading the words from Anne’s diary and why did the author choose to do that?​
puteri [66]

Answer:

It changes the mood from somebody who is curious about what's written in the diary<em> </em><em>(Mr. Frank)</em> to somebody who is eager to tell a story<em> (Anne Frank). </em>

The author chose to do that <u>in order to let the audience know what it's like to be reading another person's diary from what it's like to write a diary, as in Anne's case.</u> It also allows the audience to know the<em> actual date and setting </em>when Anne started writing the diary.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the drama entitled, "The Diary of Anne Frank."

It can be seen in Line 59 that <em>Mr. Frank </em>started reading Anne's Diary. This was after Miep told him that there were letters and notes in the bundles of paper that she gave him.

As Mr Frank was reading, <u>his voice shifted to Anne's voice</u>. This was the time she talked about his father's business and how her family went into hiding.
