Answer:

A. It conveys a sense of disillusionment with city life.

Explanation:

Modernism, an art movement that began in the Western world and spanned from the late nineteenth century to the early twentieth century was marked by a desire to embrace the urban lifestyle and move away from what was normal in the society.

The poem above portrays the desertion that comes with city life. Everyone seems to be on their own, showing the individuality and independence of people. The streets also feel deserted as the evening approaches. This portrays the disenchanted feeling that characterizes city life. It is not always as good as it seems.

Excerpt from "The Dream Comes True"
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer: c)  He feels that he and Hillary were equals and that they could not have climbed Everest without each other's help.

In the excerpt, the author argues that Hillary is a fine man and his friend, and he is not offensive to him at any point. So it would be inaccurate to claim that he refers to him as a liar and a cheat.

He also makes it clear that he does not think Hillary is "superior" to him, or that he is weak. The only accurate thing is to say that they were both equals, and they helped each other out, but that he believes Hillary does not portray him that way in his account.

From the first and second aphorisms, Franklin was born a humble and poor man, pushing him to become frugal (both in money and time), saving every coin and moment he could. Franklin also was a beliver in following what one considers is right, even if none yield their trust in it (Third aphorism). His lack of bad habits and non-existent ambition for great riches paved the way to his success and public acclamation (Fourth aphorism).

First, anacoluthon evident while saying "And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country" to place emphasis on the shift/flip in thought process.

chiasmus- the inversion of country, you -you, country

asterismos- "my fellow americans" being it's fairly obvious that at an inaugural speech the vast majority, if not all absent invited foreign diplomats, only Americans are in attendance. However, it seemed necessary to bring the speech to an almost informal level to reach all listeners with a sense of unity and level field.

short of analyzing the entire speech, this famed phrase holds to be a powerful insighter of the original idealism this country was founded on. the idea that if every citizen does their part, no matter how little, our country would continue to prosper and thrive exponentially to become truly the world's greatest nation.
