The excerpt of this question is missing; here is the missing excerpt:

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo and study the map.

[This] is an island lying about 1,000 miles south of Socotra. The people are Saracens who worship Mahomet. They have four sheikhs—that is to say, four elders—who exercise authority over the whole island. You must know that this island is one of the biggest and best in the whole world. It is said to measure about 4,000 miles in circumference. The people live by trade and industry. More elephants are bred here than in any other province; and I assure you that not so many elephant tusks are sold in all the rest of the world put together as in this island and that of Zanzibar.

The correct answer to this question is C. Madagascar

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the narrator refers to an island located "about 1,000 miles south of Socotra". About the island, the narrator describes some geographical features of it, as well as, features of its people. This includes the detail "More elephants are bred here than in any other province" that shows the number of elephants bred in this island is higher than in any other region.

Now, on the map, it can be deduced the island the author describes is Madagascar (Location C) because this is the only island located to the South of Socotra (Location A), which coincides with the description in the excerpt.

Which choice is one reason Walt Whitman repeats words in "I Hear America Singing"?
diamong [38]

Answer:

<h2>to emphasize a specific idea in the poem</h2>

Explanation:

In order to know more about the answer, let's get to know who Walt Whitman is and what "I Hear America Singing" is all about.

Walt Whitman- He is an American poet, essayist and journalist who became part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism. He is often referred to as the <u><em>"Father of Free Verse."</em></u> His style of poetry is very democratic in its outlook.

"I Hear America Singing"- This is a poem written by Walt Whitman. It was published in 1860. It was written on the eve of the American Civil War, a war fought between the northern USA and the southern USA. Despite being written during such time, the poem presents a vision of <em>America as a harmonious community.</em> It celebrates people's different work and lives in one song. It shows that no matter how diverse individuals are, they all come together to a coherent whole.

So, the answer above is <em>"to emphasize a specific idea in the poem"</em> and that specific idea is the unity of all Americans despite moving from the city to the country and the land to the sea.
