Answer:

The correct answer to this question: Which poetic device does Poe use in these lines?, would be, A: Consonance.

Explanation:

Consonance is defined as a literary technique used both in prose and also in poetry, in which the consonants in adjoining, or close words, are repeated, creating an almost repetitive sound, almost like underlining the importance of that sound. In this particular case, we have the repetition of the consonant p, in tapping, rapping and then again, rapping. Its almost as if the author wanted to create a sense of mystery, and even fear, by repeating the p sound in those words. This is why the correct answer is Consonance, and not any of the other choices.

How does the author make it clear that Dr. Benjamin Rush was a dedicated<br> physician?
n200080 [17]

Answer: here's my answer

Explanation: During the spring of 1813, former presidents John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were united in grief at the death of a mutual friend who had recently persuaded them to forget their bitter rivalries. Like the two celebrated statesmen, the eminent physician and social reformer Benjamin Rush had been a Founding Father, one of 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776.

But Adams and Jefferson believed that Rush deserved to be remembered for much more than his conspicuous enthusiasm for the cause of American liberty. Jefferson wrote that “a better man, than Rush, could not have left us,” extolling his benevolence, learning, genius and honesty. Adams replied with equal praise: He knew of no one, “living or dead,” who had “done more real good in America.” Writing to Rush’s son, Richard, Adams maintained that as a “benefactor” to his country, the doctor deserved greater recognition than even the celebrated polymath Benjamin Franklin.

Should Child Soldiers be Given Amnesty? I need this done ASAP and clarify please
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Yes they should.

Explanation:

Child Soldiers should receive amnesty. I say this because majority of the time child soldiers have been victims of war. Some their parents were killed and they were taken and forced to fight, while others their parents were killed and they choose to join for survival. Lastly, is because these are just kids following the orders given to them by adults.
