Answer:
It is a good Poem...
Explanation:
Improve the rhyme scheme, if you want to, because it is free-flow at the moment. Throw in a few idioms to make the imagery more vivid.
The answer is C.
In Scrooge's London, prisons and workhouses are two
places that most poor people are very happy to go to when
they are in need of basic necessities.
Option C contains a run-on sentence (I would call it a comma splice).
A better way to phrase the sentence could be:
1. A giant clam grows huge; it can weigh hundreds of pounds.
2. A giant clam grows huge. It can weigh hundreds of pounds.
Answer:
Police brutality and the numberless arrests of African Americans
Explanation:
The main theme of 'Poem resisting arrest' is police violence of African Americans.
Using the metaphor of the poem for African American people, Dargan explains the events and feelings that his people go through every day. With the lines such as <em>"It has the right to remain either bruised or silent"</em>, he uses what we know about police and the brutality to bring us closer to when African American person goes through facing the police officer. He – or in this case, the poem – knows he will be <em>guilty</em>, that he is <em>powerless</em>, so he is turning <em>numb </em>and slowly becomes <em>one of the many</em>.
<u>Dargan uses the poem and the metaphor to explain how African Americans resist arrest and police brutality.</u>
<u>At the core, he is using the poem and poetry as the means of the resistance without being found guilty. </u>
The incorrect usage of the singular possessive is found in the following option:
A. Icarus's fate was sealed when he approached the sun.
The problem is that it should be "Icarus' " - if the word ends with "s", you just add the apostrophe, not an additional S. (actually this is disputed, but it's the only problematic option among the options given)
