The correct answer is A. This excerpt illustrates the tediousness of life.

In this passage, Prufrock is basically saying that for him every day is the same. Because every day is the same, he has "known them all already." He says he knows the "evenings, mornings, afternoons" because each one is the same as the one that came before. Because every day is the same, and because nothing exciting ever happens to him, his life is montonous and boring.

Therefore, this passage illustrates the tediousness of life.

Answer:

The theme that is implied by the word choice in this excerpt is the tediousness of life.

Explanation:

This excerpt from “The Love Song" by J. Alfred Prufrock describes how the narrator has an extremely routinary kind of life, everything is repetitive and unchanging, there the use of the expression "I have known them all", and "I have measured out my life with coffee spoons" that also shows the control that the narrator has over his own life.

Which poetic device does the speaker use in the line, “Since Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman”?
vlabodo [156]
The speaker is using allusion it this line.
Allusion is a figure of speech in which something outside of the source text is being referred to. So here, Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman aren't actually characters in this literary piece of work, but the author is making a reference to them nevertheless.

1. Qual das frases abaixo não está no future perfect continuous? a) You will have been waiting here for three hours by 8 o'clock
Sladkaya [172]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete/unclear question. The full question read;

Which of the phrases below is <u>not</u> in the future perfect continuous?

a) You will have been waiting here for three hours by 8 o'clock.

b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

c) By the end of next month I will have been living here for ten years.

d) When I finish this course, I will have been learning Italian for ten years.

e) Next month I will have been working here for two years.

Answer:

<u>b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.</u>

Explanation:

We make this conclusion because the phrase <em>"will have been" </em> (which is the future perfect of the verb "to be") is often added to the subject of a sentence to make it future perfect continuous.

However, after careful check of all the sentences,  we notice all of them except option b used the future perfect continuous phrase, <em>"will have been." </em>
