Implied metaphor hope it helped
Answer:
C.) The line breaks make sure that the reader slows down as they read
Explanation:
The poem has these breaks in the lines to serve as a way for the reader to see the emphasize on the meaning behind the words.
"What your mother tells you
now
in time
you will come to know",
The bolded words are read slower and the meaning is emphasized on them compared to if the poem were written as, "What your mother tells you now in time you will come to know." Thus these breaks trigger the reader to slow down and fathom the meaning of the words more.
Use of Accents... This is the answer...
Exception means to take out or exclude. In a sentence: Everyone must do the homework with the exception of Nick since he was out yesterday. It means that he is excluded from doing the work. I hope this helps/makes sense lol!
