A conundrum is a patriotic poem. True False

English
1 answer:
GalinKa [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I think that a patriotic poem can be a riddle so it depends on the poem, but in vast majority my answer is True

Explanation:

A conundrum means a puzzling question or problem. The word conundrum can be used in a sentence as the word situation like "James was trying to answer a puzzling riddle and found himself in quite a deep conundrum."

Example here for a patriotic conudrum poem by Richard Ben:

The Conundrum

It is the noblest honour to serve,

But the most natural thing to love,

I present to you this conundrum,

Which is better to love or to serve?

To love is natural, to serve is noble,

Yet there exists no greater foe than these,

Man must choose,

If love triumph nobility is sacrificed,

If service triumph passion is sacrificed,

To ask man not to serve is blasphemy,

To ask man not to love is inhumane,

Shall we become stone’s to serve or

Become traitors to love.

True service enlists love, and there can

Be no love without service.

For which is better the love of a women  

Or the admiration of men.

My weeping is two-fold,

One for never dreaming  and

The other for never loving.

Read this excerpt from "Crossing the Bar" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Which two lines are examples of a dependent clause?
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

A) First, a clause is an incomplete sentence or a group of words that can't stand alone or one that does not have meaning standing by itself.

B) Furthermore, it must have a verb and a subject.

A verb, if you recall is an action word while a subject is "<em>the person or thing being referred to</em>".

Looking at the clauses in option B we can see that they both meet the above conditions.  

Let's see clause one - "<em>And may there be no </em><u><em>moaning</em></u><em> of t</em><u><em>he bar</em></u><em>, "</em>

It is clear that the verb here is "moaning" while the subject is "the Bar".

It's clear to see that these group of words meet the conditions given in A and B above because left by themselves, they make no meaning.

Let's take a look at the second clause:

"<em>When I put out to sea</em>,"

"I" here is the subject. It is a pronoun. A pronoun is simply a word that can be used instead of the noun. That is a noun can easily but inserted in the place of "I". Hence, we have "I" as the subject.

"<em>Put Out</em>"  here is a verb which means to relocate.

So "When I put out to sea"  also meets the conditions in A and B above.

Cheers!
