A poem’s meter is the type of poetic foot combined with the number of poetic feet in each line. Review the first stanza of “The

Raven” again and identify its meter.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“'Tis some visitor, “I muttered, tapping at my chamber door —
Only this, and nothing more.”

Note the meter of the poem. Then provide a brief explanation for your answer. Be sure to use examples from the poem.

Answer:

The meter of “The Raven” is trochaic octameter. The following line from the poem has trochaic feet:

While I | nodded, | nearly | napping, | sudden | ly there | came a | tapping,

Each stressed syllable is followed by a single unstressed syllable. This pattern is repeated eight times in the line. Because there are eight trochaic feet in the line, it is written in octameter.

Answer:

The author’s last name and the page number the information is found in the source.

Explanation:

When using a direct quote, you are using someone else's content to support your own content. To accomplish this fairly, you need to give credit to the original author. This is done by including their last name and the page number of the source you found the information on. This will let readers know whose thoughts they were and where they can find it.

Hope this helps!

Why doesn't Romeo receive Friar Laurence's message?
Ivan

Romeo doesn’t receive Friar Laurence’s message because there is a plague outbreak and Friar John was quarantined.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

While Friar John was on the way, he decided to visit a house which had some sick people when he was on the way to give the letter to Romeo. He was quarantined on ground of suspicion that even he might be affected with the plague and the letter could be the main reason why the plague is spreading.

After he was released he returned the letter to Friar Laurence stating that he was not able to give the letter. Friar Lawrence is totally mood off and realizes that Romeo if not knowing Juliet's unjust death, no one can recover her from the grave when she wakes up.
