Answer:

The last foot (the anceps) always consists of two syllables so mark it so immediately. You can

regard the very last syllable as an unknown vowel length and mark it as an X (it will normally be

pronounced long no matter what)

2. The second to last foot is almost always a dactyl so mark it so immediately

3. The first syllable of every line of poetry is long no-matter-what so mark it so immediately.

4. The thesis (first syllable) of a foot is always long

5. The arsis (the second half) of a foot will either be one long or two shorts: there can be no

mixing and matching in the second half of the foot

Which question would help you predict that the author of “Occupation: Conductorette” would get the job as a conductor? A. Where
34kurt

Answer:

The answer is: How much does the author want the job?

Explanation:

From Angelous' experience, we learned many lessons, one of the main ones after reading "Occupation: Conductorette” was persistence. If Angelous hadn't gone to the company every day (being persistent) for she wanted so much the job, otherwise, she wouldn't have continued going there after her first visit in which the lady denied that there was help wanted. But her persistency meant, how much did she really wanted the job. You are persistent when you really want something, when you don't, you just stop trying on the first time.
