The answer is A) a formal poem using extensive reptition
Hi there! I have no clue which Greg you're referring to, but I can give you some points on a thesis statement.
As you hopefully know, a thesis statement gives the reader a main idea of what the body paragraphs will be about. It doesn't have to be long-- usually it's one sentence and just gets straight to the point.
Here's a starter;
By the end of "(title of the story)", Greg changes into a (what he changed into) because of (idea of 1st paragraph), (idea of 2nd paragraph), and (idea of 3rd paragraph).
Hope I helped!
Answer:
A. abcb
Explanation:
Read the poem out loud, paying particular attention the the last sounds of every line. Rhyming words sometimes look alike, but it's the sound that matters.
Death pronounced: deth
me pronounced: meee
selves pronounced: selvz "elvz" and "eth" are not similar.
ty pronounced: teeee Also has "eeee" sound like line 2.
To write the scheme, answer 'Does this line's last sound rhyme with anything <u>above</u> it?"
If no, continue with the alphabet.
If yes, take the letter from the line it rhymes with.
Line 1 No (nothing is above it)
"a"
Line 2 No (not above)
"b"
Line 3 No
"c"
Line 4 Yes, Line 2!
"b"
The rhyming scheme is abdb.
