Answer:
- Fused sentence.
Explanation:
'Fused sentence' is described as the type of run-on sentence in which two independent clauses run together(one after another) without any coordinating conjunction or marks of punctuation to keep the two ideas separate.
The given sentence exemplifies 'fused sentence' as it justifies the above definition where two independent clauses('My mother and father are both scientists' and ' it must have been my just need to become interested in biology') run together without employing any punctuation or conjunction to link them. The correct version could be:
'My mother and father are both scientists, so it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.'
'My mother and father are both scientists; it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.'
The poem I have chosen is Small Dragon by Brian Patten.
The poem appeals to children's imagination to tell them about a dragon that the author has found in the forest. The author depicts the dragon. He says that it feds on many things like grass, roots of stars, hazel nut and dandelion. Then the author says the dragon made a nest among the coal not unlike a bird but larger. the author says that if you believed in it he would come hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder. In this way he leans on children's innocense to make them believe.
What I liked about this poem is that in a world in which children are treated like adults and they have to worry about life. In a world in which children are forced to work and they have to make a living, there is this dragon that appears in the forest. Thus the author appeals to the innocense of children to make them believe in a wonderful creature, in a wonderful life.
The quote that I like is
If you believed in it I would come
hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder,
Because that makes me think that there is a dragon, that there is a wonderlful creature in the forest. I just have to believe.
