5. How does the poet use personification to describe Chicago?

English
1 answer:
podryga [215]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

★ The personification sometimes shifts to making Chicago a specific type of worker, but overall, the poem likens Chicago to a man. The thing to keep in mind is that when the narrator talks about something or someone laughing or having shoulders, the narrator is actually describing Chicago. If you need a good example of the poem's personification, I would look to lines that are found near the end.

Explanation:

Hope you have a great day :)

The oldest girl whispered to her sisters that she had a plan. She had read that onions could freeze a troll in his tracks. She tricked the troll into taking an onion from the cupboard by saying it was a delicious yellow apple. He greedily grabbed it and was frozen in place. The middle sister figured out how to untie the ropes around them. She used them to sew the troll into a trap.

Match definition or example to the term. 1. repeat initial consonant sound assonance 2. like - night true rhyme 3. repeat final
wel
1. repeat initial consonant sound = alliteration
Alliteration and consonance are both figures of speech in which the author chooses to repeat consonants within neighboring words, but the difference is that in alliteration, the initial consonant is repeated, whereas in consonance, the final consonant is repeated.

2. like - night = slant rhyme
Slant rhyme is a type of imperfect rhyme. It means that similar sounds are used instead of the same sounds in two or more words which are supposed to rhyme, like in the case of like and night. You can see that they do sound similarly, but not the same.

3. repeat final consonant sound = consonance
Read the explanation I wrote for 1.

4. sound effects = onomatopoeia
Onomatopoeia is a figure of speech used to imitate sounds you can hear in nature or anywhere around you. So, for example, if you say the words <em>jingle, mew, baa, buzz, boom, </em>etc, you are imitating sounds that can be heard, and that is onomatopoeia.

5. repeat vowel sounds = assonance
As opposed to alliteration and consonance, where consonants are repeated in neighboring words, assonance is a figure of speech authors use when they want to repeat the same vowel in neighboring words. For example, in words <em>lie:side:bride, </em>the same vowel (i) is repeated. 

6. ball - fall = true rhyme
Unlike slanted rhyme, where similar sounds are used, when it comes to true rhyme, sounds which sound the same are used. As you can see, in words <em>ball </em>and <em>fall, </em>only one sound differs, and that is the initial sound (B and F), but everything else is the same, which is why these words rhyme.
