English

Answer:

flew, flutter, flight, forever

Explanation:

Alliteration is the figure of speech that allows that in the same line or stanza, a poem presents a succession of words with repetition of consonant sounds, that is, with repetition of consonants. In lines 10-16 of "Icarus Flight" we can see the presence of the alliteration in the words "flew," "flutter," "flight" and "forever," where we can see that the repetition of the consonant "f" reinforces the idea of flight and distance, which are two important elements in the meaning of the poem.

The poem presents the greed of Icarus when flying with his wax wings. This greed causes him to lose his discernment, get too close to the sun and melt his wings, causing a big drop in the sea, where he drowns.

it is necessary to remember that in a poem, a line represents a verse and a stanza represents the set of verses.

Answer: Metaphor

Explanation:

A Metaphor helps describe a character or variable by relating it to another character or Variable that is seemly unrelated to it but bears certain characteristics to it for comparison sake.

It essentially says one thing is another so that the original thing can be understood better.

For example, "every family has a black sheep". It is not saying that every family will have a sheep which is black but rather saying that at least one member of each family behaves differently from the rest.

In the above extract from Toni Cade Bambara's short story "Raymond's Run", Squeaky who is Raymond's sister is using a metaphor to describe her brother's penchant for using the curb as a Circus clown uses a rope high in the air.

People from all three eastern regions (new england, southeastern, midlands) migrated into the midwest, great plains and western
marishachu [46]
This is because in the "U.S.A.", people in all the regions in the U.S.A. historically migrated throughout an "entire land mass" (essentially) ; and this "land mass" tends to be more "homogeneous" (as opposed to "British English" speakers; who speak with different dialects, accents).  Note that the United Kingdom, including Great Britain, is further isolated from the U.S.A.—by a huge ocean— than the "relatively more homogeneous physical region"/ and thus the "relatively more linguistic region".

Important Question<br> Do you think kids should have phones? If so explain why!
Natali [406]

<em><u>Answer</u></em> :

As kids become more independent, cellphones are a great way to reach them on the go. After all, you can’t beat getting real-time updates on their whereabouts and schedule changes. But should kids have cellphones? For most parents, it’s not all about age. You’ll also need to consider your own kid’s maturity level, how your child will use the cellphone, and the potential drawbacks involved.

This is the Answer for your question :3

I hoped I helped you :3

I hope you are having a great day ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
