Hi could anyone please proof read and give out pointers for the following text.
butalik [34]

Statistics are great indicators of standard of living - I suggest that you say "great indicators for a standard", or "great indicators for the standard"

living but there are other less - add a comma before the but

Less measurable factors that need to be taken into account...work balance are very important. - You just mentioned that these are less measurable, however here you're saying they're "very important"

safe lives and divorce is virtually heard of. - "Virtually unheard of." You could also say "Rarely heard of." Or, just "rare."

we have suicide mortality rate of 13.2 people/100,000 people - "we have a suicide mortality rate..."

The Solomon Islands may be a lovely place to visit but very few Australians would actually like to call it their home. - "...loveplace to visit, (add a comma) but very few..."

Which line in this excerpt from Amy Lowell's "Lilacs" emphasizes consonance?
grandymaker [24]

Line in this excerpt from Amy Lowell's "Lilacs" that emphasizes consonance is

Because my leaves are of it

Explanation:

The poem "Lilacs' employs consonance liberally throughout the poem and almost every line has an example due to the refrain of the phrases that is present in the poem, first through 'new England' and then through the phrase of 'are in it'

Consonance is the use of consonant sounds that are similar in close proximity to each other. This is evident in the given line which has almost all the same sounds which is the sound of 'cause' and 'leav' that repeat twice in the line of 7 syllables.
