Answer:
In narration, a motif is any recurring element that is important to the story.
So, from the story, the motif of wishing applies to the major characters in different ways.
For Yoni, he wishes for success, Sergei wishes for a friend, while the goldfish wants freedom.
The similar thing about their wishes is that they want all wish for what will bring satisfaction and contentment to their lives and it is different because they all have different wishes, as no wish is the same.
B is the most likely correct answer.
Answer:
The best answer seems to bee A. free verse.
Explanation:
When we read Maya Angelou's poem "Caged Bird", we realize she chooses to not follow a specific pattern. Angelou does not seem to worry about meter and rhyme, changing greatly the metric of her verses at a certain point in the poem. However, we can notice a few lines that present rhymes. Check the excerpt below:
But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
[...]
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn bright lawn
and he names the sky his own
<u>We might even be tempted to try to find some new and different, perhaps inconsistent sort of pattern to explain what she does. However, after reading a few analyses of the poem, I found nothing concerning a "partial rhyme". That does not constitute a possibility. The manner in which Angelou rhymes and the frequency with which it is done are not enough to fit into any rhyme scheme. Also, there seems to be no such thing as a partial rhyme scheme. This lack of consistency in rhyme and meter is called free verse. Thus, the only possible answer among the options given is A. free verse.</u>
