The correct answer is B. it does not follow a formal structure.

Let us first go through all of these options in order to determine the structural characteristics of <em>Forgetfulness, </em>by Billy Collins.

Option A is incorrect - if you count the syllables in each line, you will see that the first one has 11, the second one 13, and so on - so, not 10.

Option C is also incorrect - there are actually 8 stanzas, and they are not of equal length.

Option D is also incorrect - there are no rhymes in this poem.

So, by the process of elimination, the correct answer is B - this poem doesn't follow a formal structure - it is rather a free verse poem containing stanzas of varying lengths.

Which slogan contains alliteration?
zvonat [6]
Alliteration refers to the stylistic device wherein a number of words, which have the same 1st consonant sound, occur closely within a series.

Some obvious examples of alliteration are:
-Alice’s aunt ate apples and acorns around August.
<span>-But a better butter makes a batter better
</span>
Among your choices, the closest representation of alliteration is The Snack You Can Sneak. Although the choice "Simply the Best Snacks" does have 2 S's. The former has a better creative and rhythmic value.
 
So I would go for "<span>The Snack You Can Sneak" as the best answer here. </span>

Before there was anything, according to Egyptian mythology, there was an endless expanse of water. What name was given to these
maw [93]

Answer:

The name given to these primordial waters and the being who personified them was Nun.

Explanation:

In Egyptian creational myths, Nun or Nu is the oldest of the gods. He is the embodiment of the waters of chaos, the primeval waters. Nun is the father of Ra, the sun god, who rose from the primeval waters on a hillock and created himself and other gods. In Ancient Egypt, it was believed that Nun was the one who caused the annual flood of the Nile. It was also believed that the primeval waters never ceased to exist and that, each morning, as the Sun rose from the waters, the creation of the ordered cosmos was being reenacted.
