The theme can be, a man is alone in the cold Yukon with nothing but a dog, and all odds are against him, including nature. A theme is an outline of the story by not getting into details

The poem ends with image " the Holy Ghost over the bent / World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings'.

svlad2 [7]

I would believe the literary device is would either be a metaphor or an onomatopoeia because of the “ah”
the holy ghost is being compared to a bird to some extent
this helps you understand the physical Appearance of the ghost, it is flying over people, watching, preying almost.

In the following sentence, one or both of the underlined adjectives and adverbs are in the wrong form. Select the answer option

Marina CMI [18]

In the sentence "American music from 1900 to 1950 was notably for its harmony and melody, which served the public well," there is indeed one mistake. The option with the correct form is:

c) American music from 1900 to 1950 was notable for its harmony and melody, which served the public well.

Let's focus on the first part of the sentence first, which is "American music from 1900 to 1950 was notably for its harmony and melody."

The complete subject of that part is "American music from 1900 to 1950."

That subject is followed by a linking verb, which is the past form of to be, "was".

Linking verbs are usually not followed by adverbs. They are followed by adjectives that modify the subject.

"Notably" is an adverb. We must change it into an adjective for the sentence to be correct. The equivalent adjective is "notable".

The correct sentence would then be: "American music from 1900 to 1950 was notable for its harmony and melody."

Now, let's take a look at the second part of the sentence, which is "which served the public well."

Here, we also have an adverb, "well", following a verb, "served".

But, in this case, it is not wrong to use to adverb. "Served" is not a linking verb. It is an action verb, and it can be modified by the adverb "well".

Therefore, there is no mistake in the second part of the sentence.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the correct option is letter C. American music from 1900 to 1950 was notable for its harmony and melody, which served the public well.

His chores being all dispatched, he caught

Tanzania [10]

We can explain the simile in the excerpt in the following manner:

The simile in the excerpt serves to show readers that the Cyclops is extremely strong, and that lifting a heavy rock is no big deal for him.

The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to the epic poem "The Odyssey".

The Cyclops is a one-eyed giant and the son of the god Poseidon.

A simile is a comparison made with the help of the words "like" or "as".

In order to show how strong the Cyclops is, the narrator compares the way he lifts the big and heavy rock to capping a quiver.

In other words, the narrator shows with that comparison (simile) that lifting a heavy rock is something easy for the Cyclops to do.

That means the Cyclops is extremely strong.
