Answer:
I Would say <em>B) These phrases emphasize the great anticipation Keller is experiencing.
</em>
Explanation:
Just from ruling out the others that dont fit. B is the only one that makes sense in my opinion.
Answer:
Awestruck- a. In the next room, the door of which was open, I could see a magnificent glut dressing case, with some splendid diamond and ruby shirt studs lying by it, and a chest of drawers, and a cupboard apparently full of clothes. (The Notch On The Ax by William Makepeace Thackeray )
Calm- b. A hearty hand-clasp from Jack, a frank and smiling greeting from Polly (she looked handsomer than ever, Harold thought, with her lustrous black hair and soft, dark-gray eyes ), put him at his ease at one. ( The Emergency Men by George H. Jessop )
Humorous- c. By reason of my tender age (and there are some critics who, I hope will be satisfied by my acknowledging that I am a hundred and fifty-six next birthday ), I could not understand what was the meaning of this next excursion—this candle, this tool house, this bag of soot. ( On Being Found Out by William Makepeace Thackeray )
Explanation:
1. The excerpt from "The Notch on the Axe" by William Makepeace Thackeray shows an awestruck tone with the description of the room, the things the speaker can see inside the room. The depiction of the room with "<em>full of clothes, ...diamond and ruby.. and a chest full of drawers</em>" exudes an image of grandeur which will impress anyone.
2. George H. Jessop's "The Emergency Men" exudes a calm tone when he uses the words <em>"put him at his ease</em>".
3. William Thackeray's "On Being Found Out" is a humorous one for it is quite unbelievable and funny when the speaker talks of his age as<em> "a hundred and fifty-six next birthday".</em>
D, the word in the middle rhymes with the word at the end, which is the definition of an internal rhyme.
Answer:
Yes, there is a change in the speaker's thoughts about her friends.
The change occurs on the line that states "Until I noticed..."
Explanation:
The word "until" marks a change in the account, which was a loving description of the two friends, until something changed that: the fact that these friends would follow the speaker when she carried Beatrice, presumably her child, to bed. This is a strange event, which also marks the change in the poem. What the speaker realizes is that, despite their apparent acceptance of having lost their parents at a young age, they seem to be stuck on that fact, taking the place of children as they seem the author being a mother to her child.
Well you have to say the word before I can answer the question
