Answer:

D. She danced along to the song on the radio.

Explanation:

Option D is the correct answer because it is written in iambic pentameter.

An iambic pentameter refers to the line that has a pattern or rhythm that has to do with the number of syllables in the line and the emphasis placed on those syllables. In an iambic pentameter, from the word "pent", it's clear that the line has 5 stressed syllable.

For an iambic pentameter in a poem, every single line of that poem will definitely have five stressed syllables.

William Shakespeare's works are known to be often used as examples of iambic pentameter.

Answer: I would like to write on the second one so let's go on!

Explanation:  Although it doesn't matters that it is a supermarket or a local shop because ingredients are all available in both places there is just a little different that supermarkets has more facilities and local shops does not have that much facilities So, however i prefer shopping in supermarkets as it has alot of facilities like we dont need to room around continuosly and find things as all the things have a sequence and a manner of placement so its easy to buy things from a supermarket not only this even the quality of ingredients matter which we can find our best in supermarkets because they use to keep all those things which have excellent quality and shopping is easy as we have guiders there and we dont need to like ask someone prices of the things again and again as all the taxes and prices are tagged on the ingredients and the cleanliness is maintained .We have a freedom to buy anything like the areas are not conjusted or crowdy like nowadays we are facing a serious trauma of a new virus  names known as corona virus in which we need to follow some sop's so we can stay safe as till now we are not able to find any cure of this virus so in local shops its really difficult to make yourself in a safe place but in supermarkets everyone needs to follow sops strictly like now shopkeepers created a new rule that they paste a page of sops outside the shop and only let limited people enter in one shop like some shops had written entry of only 12 people at a time sanitizers are placed on the entry and masks so everyone can stay safe and distance marks are mentioned on floor so this  all simply tells us that supermarkets include more facilities than the local shops and is a ease to shopping.❤

In at least 100 words, describe how Whitman’s "Song of Myself" embodies Transcendental ideals.
andrew-mc [135]
Starting with its very title, "Song of Myself" is indeed a poetic embodiment of the transcendentalist philosophy. Whitman (or the speaker who calls himself Whitman) doesn't sing and praise some outside ideals or occurrences, but himself. This is the transcendentalist ideal of self-reliance, explained in Emerson's eponymous essay. It says that the greatest strength of every individual is his/her own self, independent, free from authority and restraints, liberated and self-sufficient. Both Emerson and Whitman, each in his own right, have written a giant ode to individualism.

Another transcendentalist ideal embodied in Whitman's famous poem is relationship with nature. In his view, nature is the source of genuine beauty and wisdom, uncorrupted by the touch of social and political institutions. Whitman says "<span>I will go to the bank by the wood and become undisguised and naked", which means that nature is the only realm of sincerity, and people can only be true to themselves if they are independent of humanity but close to nature.

Just like Transcendentalism has been a unique, authentic American take on Romanticism, Whitman has been the pillar of American national and cultural identity in poetry. He has taken the very American notion of individualism (defined and praised by transcendentalists) and put it in his poetry, most notably in "Song of Myself" as the most self-obsessed, yet not egotistical account of modern American poetry.</span>
