Murljashka [212]

Answer:

It provides factual information about events in the past.

Explanation:

A historical text is a text that gives information or contains details about the past or any historical event that's gone by. The very word "historical" implies that it is about some things that have happened in the past.

So, one trait of a historical text will be that it provides factual information about things, events, incidents, or stories that occurred in the past. It provides information about true facts, telling us how or why events happen or what led up to the important event in that time of history.

Answer:

Iambic tetrameter- excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change (Louise Bogan, "A Tale")

excerpt 2: This coyness, lady, were no crime. (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress")

Iambic trimeter- excerpt 3: In some melodious plot (John Keats, "Ode to a Nightingale")

excerpt 4: Of credit and renown (William Cowper. "The Diverting History of John Gilpin")

Explanation:

The meter of poetry is the rhythmic structure of a line in poetry. This means the beats in the line of poetry follow a certain pattern, which becomes the meter.

Iambic tetrameter consists of four iambic feet in a line, with eight syllables. On the other hand, iambic trimeter is when the line has three units, meaning six syllables.

Thus, the given lines of poetry with their respective meter patterns are as follows-

Iambic tetrameter-

excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change (Louise Bogan, "A Tale").

excerpt 2: This coyness, lady, were no crime. (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress").

Iambic trimeter-

Ex.5. Rewrite the questions in reported speech. "Are you hungry?" He asked me _______ . "What are you doing now?" He asked me __

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

He asked me if I was hungry.

He asked me what I was doing.

He asked me when he went to school.

He asked me where I spent my holidays.

He asked me what the time was then.

Explanation:

Reported speech is when we tell someone what another person had told us. This retelling or exchange of information to a third party is given in the reporter form, or in the indirect speech.

The verbs and tenses in the reported speech will be changed according to the tenses in the first speech. So, supposing the initial sentence is in the simple present tense, then the reported speech will be in the simple past tense. Likewise, if the original speech is in the present perfect, then the reporting speech will be in the past perfect tense.

"Are you hungry?" He asked me if I was hungry. 

"What are you doing now?" He asked me what I was doing. 

"When does he go to school?" He asked me when he went to school. 

"Where did you spend your holidays?" He asked me where I spent my holidays. 

"What time is it now?" He asked me what the time was then.
