It’s the 3rd option. The clock is representing their lives ticking away slowly
Answer: stilted
Explanation: Tbh I searched the definition of “stilted”on the internet; it means “(of a manner of talking or writing) stiff and self-conscious or unnatural.” It wouldn’t be slang because slang means everyday talk. Vague means not thoroughly described. Cliché is used to describe a word, phrase, or event that is overused (ex. happily ever after, love at first sight)
What is the underlined word so i can understand the question better?
Answer:
in the middle of the poem
Explanation:
The recency effects supports the fact that in the process of reading or listing, the human brain is more likely to remember things that are read late more than those that are presented in the middle of the reading or list. The primacy effects ensures that things earlier in the list or reading are remembered more than those in the middle. Hence the greatest number of recall errors is seen in the middle.
