Answer:

1. Heroic

2. Satirical

Explanation:

Heroic couplets are a traditional form of English poetry. They consist of a rhyming pair of lines in iambic pentameter. These were often used by authors such as Dryden, Alexander Pope and Chaucer. They also commonly appear in epic and narrative poetry.

Satirical writing, on the other hand, describes a type of writing that tries to make fun of certain individuals, institutions, corporations or the government. Satire tries to highlight the vices, abuses and follies of these characters, most often in order to encourage social change.

Is the following sentence a simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex sentence?

A compound sentence is when there are two parts of a sentence that can work alone as complete sentences, but which are combined into one sentence with the use of a conjunction (and, but, etc.). In this case, "I watched the movie" and "I didn't like it" can stand on their own as separate sentences. However, they are conjoined into one sentence by the word "but," a conjunction, which classifies this sentence as compound.</span>

Explain the poetic techniques used in the opening lines of John Donne’s Sonnet X.
KonstantinChe [14]
Donne is using both personification and apostrophe in these lines. He is using apostrophe when he speaks to death as though it were a person who could hear it and respond to him. he also personifies death as if it were a person who could feel proud or be "mighty" and "dreadful".
