Answer:

North Richmond Street, <u>being blind</u>, was a quiet street except at the hour when the Christian Brothers' School set the boys free.

Explanation:

A participial phrase is a group of words that consists of a participle, its modifiers, and any objects that complete that thought.

Participles are words derived from verbs that can function as adjectives or parts of verb phrases. There are two types of participles:

  • Past participles - they usually end in -ed (for regular verbs), and less often in -en, -t, -d, and -n (irregular verbs). Example:<em> bake - baked</em>.
  • Present participles - they end in -ing. Example: bake - baking.

In the first sentence of the given excerpt, we have one participial phrase: <em>being blind</em>. It consists of the present participle <em>being</em> and a modifier <em>blind</em>.

Answer down below

Explanation:

The phrases that considered as participial phrases are:

- Being Blind

- Having been long enclosed

Participles could be identified by spotting additional -ing (for present) or -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, or -ne (for past) after certain nouns and pronouns that acted as a modifier that changed the meaning of those words

Observe that as Hrothgar begins to speak about Grendel in lines 207-210, the mood becomes bleak and despairing. What repeated so
kirill [66]

Answer:

The repeated sounds that the poet has used in these lines to create the mood of bleak and despair is alliteration.

Explanation:

Beowulf is an epic poem written in Old English, and one of the earliest surviving text.

In lines 207-210, the poet has used the repeated sounds of alliteration to create the mood of bleak and despair.

Alliteration is a device which repeats the same consonant sound at the beginning of a word in the same sentence.

<u>The words are, in which alliterative sounds are used, 'heavy', 'heart', 'hall.'</u>

The poet creates bleak and despairing mood using these words. Bleak means cold and miserable, whereas, despairing means hopeless. Using repeatitive sounds of alliterative words, the poet manages to create this mood of coldness and hopelessness in lines 207-210.

In Invention of Love, what do the man's actions of throwing out the rose and putting a mechanical flower in its place foreshadow
ZanzabumX [31]
The correct answer is A.

The death of the rose foreshadows the death of the wife; the replacement of the rose with a mechanical one also foreshadows the mechanical wife he will build in her place.

Unfortunately, the result is the same -- machines are not a true replacement for the real world, and the man cannot replace his love with a machine.
