Metaphor - Refers to touching the moon
Anaphora - Both the sentences starts with “he”
Modernist poetry is characterized by a love of paradox. Instead of confirming our supositions about the world, it means to challenge them. A famous example is the opening of T.S. Elliot's <em>The Wast Land</em>: "April is the cruellest month", where spring, traditionally seen as a fair and benevolent season, is shown as harsh, as if it were fall or winter. In this poem, the author presents us with a man that has "everything" (wealth and education), yet instead of leading a happy life kills himself. The apparent incongruence is meant to shock us into reflection.
According to the article "7 Reasons to Get Rid of the Penny," one difference between pennies made in 1909 and pennies made today is:
A. Pennies made in 1909 contained <u>mostly copper</u>.
- "7 Reason to Get Rid of the Penny" is an article by Jeff Nilsson in which he explains why pennies are not worth being produced any longer.
- Nilsson explains that pennies were introduced in 1909 for the centennial of Lincoln's birth. Back then, they were made of 95% copper.
- Because copper was valuable then, a penny was actually <u>worth 2.5 cents</u>.
- Nowadays, pennies are only 2.5% copper. Also, a penny is <u>worth 1 cent, but it costs 1.8 cents to make.</u>
- Therefore, that is one of the reasons why<u> producing</u> pennies is <u>not worth </u>the trouble anymore.
