Answer:

Her experiences and knowledge led her to question her relationship with her country, Jamaica, to which she felt indifferent and to Britain, like whom she tried to act.

Explanation:

"Back To My Own Country" is a reflective essay written by Andrea Levy. The essay reflects her experience of being from Jamaican heritage and upbringing in Britain.

In her essay, she reflects upon her experiences being Jamaican on Britain's land. She asserts that back in Jamaica, her parents never allowed her to play with the children of darker tone. This separation made her indifferent with her Jamaican origin. And, when her family immigrated to Britain, she tried to act like Britons.

This led her to question of her origin, because both Jamaica and Britain play a vital role in her growth.

Match each excerpt to its poetic style. enjambment iambic pentameter blank verse There is a quiet spirit in these woods, That dw
Gemiola [76]

The correct answers are:

*Black verse:

There is a quiet spirit in these woods,

That dwells where'er the gentle south-wind blows;

Where, underneath the white-thorn, in the glade,

The wild flowers bloom, or, kissing the soft air,

The leaves above their sunny palms outspread. (from "The Spirit of Poetry" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>black verse</em><em>, since it is written with regular metrical but unrhymed lines. In other words, un-rhyming verses written in iambic pentameter. </em>

*Enjambment:

Ah! what is not a dream by day

To him whose eyes are cast

On things around him with a ray

Turned back upon the past? (from "A Dream" by Edgar Allan Poe)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>enjambment</em><em>, since it contains lines that end without punctuation and without completing a sentence or clause.</em>

*Iambic pentameter:

I said unto myself, if I were dead,

What would befall these children? What would be

Their fate, who now are looking up to me

For help and furtherance? Their lives, I said, (from "A Shadow" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

<em>The poetic style of this poem is </em><em>iambic pentameter</em><em>, since it is a combination of one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. An iambic pentameter has five stressed syllables and ten syllables total. </em>
