Answer:

The maid lived in a rural setting.

Explanation:

William Wordsworth's poem "She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways" mourns the loss of "<em>Lucy</em>", a fair maiden who <em>"lived unknown"</em>. In a three stanza poem, the speaker mourns the death of the "maid" who was beautiful. But aside from her beauty, she was humble and modest, and did not draw any form of attention to herself.

The poet used the adjective word <em>"untrodden" </em>to signify how simple of a life the maid lived. She "dwelt among the <em>"untrodden"</em>, meaning away from the busy and hectic life, literally meaning the less occupied place. And in this <em>"untrodden"</em> place, she was alone, with <em>"none to praise and very few to love"</em>. And when she died, there were <em>"few"</em> who could know the difference of her presence and absence from the earth. This shows that she lived in a rural place, where there are less or no people.

I hosted a birthday party last Sunday and the guests A. wreaked havoc on my house!
The collocation (two or more words that often go together) is to wreak havoc, so only A can be the correct answer. 
To reek means to stink, to wreck means to destroy (but you cannot wreck havoc), and rect isn't a word in English.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

They allow the narrative to have a melody created through rhyme and structuring.

Explanation:

Alliteration, caesura and kennings are figures of speech capable of developing a musical, rhythmic and harmonious effect in a text. The use of these figures was very influential in the epic poem Beowulf, especially in the most important points of the narrative, such as the moment of the fight between Beowulf and the monster Grendel. This influence is due to the fact of the musicality created by these figures of language, through the rhyme and the structure that they create. This meant that the poem could be easily sung, in addition to being recited, since they had an applicable rhythm for songs.
