Answer:

The narrator of the "A Shropshire Lad" is an unhappy and pessimistic young soldier.

Explanation:

Alfred Edward Housman's collection of poem "A Shropshire Lad" was narrated by a young but pessimistic soldier who had lost a lot of people. This is a collection of sixty- three poems that shows sacrifice of the Shropshire lads who had died while serving the Queen.

And added to their deaths, he is surrounded by the themes of death even in the poetry he reads. He talks of the sacrifice of these men, "the land they perished for" implying the patriotic zeal in the soldiers. It's as if the feeling and concept of death or dying is meant to be with him as long as he lives.

Trava [24]

I don't believe that any of these are run-on sentences. This is because they all possess some form of punctuation, which creates a small to moderate oause in the sentence, allowing for the person reading to breathe in between, and preventing a run-on sentence.

Answer:

A). Write a formal outline using full sentences.

Explanation:

Organizing a text or paper is one of the most crucial tasks as it directly impacts the readers' interest and understanding. It not only establishes a connection among the ideas that allow the readers to relate it effectively to the thesis but also promotes their comprehension.

As per the question, the first step is to develop a formal outline of the essay or paper. This draft will begin with the thesis statement that will reveal the key idea of the paper. The thesis statement will be immediately followed by ideas that back the thesis statement and then, the key ideas are further supported in a logical manner until the topic is developed completely. Thus, this will arrange the paper in an effective and coherent manner. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
