Which statement describes a major difference between a traditional poem and a free verse poem?

English
1 answer:
statuscvo [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A traditional poem may contain regular meter and rhyme scheme, but a free verse poem does not contain these elements.

Explanation:

A traditional poem is the type of poetry that contains a certain rhyme scheme and adheres to a specific structure. This means that it follows a particular meter, pattern, or 'rule' of writing poetry.

On the other hand, a free verse, as the name suggests, is a free form of writing poetry where the author writes the poem however he/she wants. There is no specific pattern or scheme to be followed though the use of figurative languages may still be employed.

Thus, the statement that describes the major difference between the two is the second option.

Which sentence below contains an incorrect verb form?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

D. Barry's band perform for a group of paying customers every time they play at Filits.

Explanation:

The tricky thing with words such as "band", "team", "jury" etc. is determining whether they are singular or plural.

Basically, the rule is that when we talk about the group of people, as a whole, we use singular form, but when we talk about the members of the group we use plural form.

Sentences A. and B. are correct; "Barry plays/feels...", "The name comes..." all use correct verb forms regarding the subject.

Sentence C. in the first part uses "The band is called..." and then "They have been...". This might seem wrong, but it actually isn't. In the first part, the band refers to the group, meaning it's singular. In the second part "they" refers to the band members, which should be plural.

Ssntence D. uses the band as the group, but uses the inadequate verb form - perform instead of performs.

HELP! If anyone has read the book 1984, can you give me a summary of chapter one and two? It's very hard. (6th grade honors)
Elanso [62]
CHAPTER 1

On a cold day in April of 1984, a man named Winston Smith returns to his home, a dilapidated apartment building called Victory Mansions. Thin, frail, and thirty-nine years old, it is painful for him to trudge up the stairs because he has a varicose ulcer above his right ankle. The elevator is always out of service so he does not try to use it. As he climbs the staircase, he is greeted on each landing by a poster depicting an enormous face, underscored by the words <span>“BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU.”

</span>Winston is an insignificant official in the Party, the totalitarian political regime that rules all of Airstrip One—the land that used to be called England—as part of the larger state of Oceania. Though Winston is technically a member of the ruling class, his life is still under the Party’s oppressive political control. In his apartment, an instrument called a telescreen—which is always on, spouting propaganda, and through which the Thought Police are known to monitor the actions of citizens—shows a dreary report about pig iron. Winston keeps his back to the screen. From his window he sees the Ministry of Truth, where he works as a propaganda officer altering historical records to match the Party’s official version of past events. Winston thinks about the other Ministries that exist as part of the Party’s governmental apparatus: the Ministry of Peace, which wages war; the Ministry of Plenty, which plans economic shortages; and the dreaded Ministry of Love, the center of the Inner Party’s loathsome activities.

From a drawer in a little alcove hidden from the telescreen, Winston pulls out a small diary he recently purchased. He found the diary in a secondhand store in the proletarian district, where the very poor live relatively unimpeded by Party monitoring. The proles,<span> as they are called, are so impoverished and insignificant that the Party does not consider them a threat to its power. Winston begins to write in his diary, although he realizes that this constitutes an act of rebellion against the Party. He describes the films he watched the night before. He thinks about his lust and hatred for a dark-haired girl who works in the Fiction Department at the Ministry of Truth, and about an important Inner Party member named O’Brien—a man he is sure is an enemy of the Party. Winston remembers the moment before that day’s Two Minutes Hate, an assembly during which Party orators whip the populace into a frenzy of hatred against the enemies of Oceania. Just before the Hate began, Winston knew he hated Big Brother, and saw the same loathing in O’Brien’s eyes.
</span>
Winston looks down and realizes that he has written “DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER”<span> over and over again in his diary. He has committed thoughtcrime—the most unpardonable crime—and he knows that the Thought Police will seize him sooner or later. Just then, there is a knock at the door.
</span><span>
CHAPTER 2

</span><span>Winston opens the door fearfully, assuming that the Thought Police have arrived to arrest him for writing in the diary. However, it is only Mrs. Parsons, a neighbor in his apartment building, needing help with the plumbing while her husband is away. In Mrs. Parsons’s apartment, Winston is tormented by the fervent Parsons children, who, being Junior Spies, accuse him of thoughtcrime. The Junior Spies is an organization of children who monitor adults for disloyalty to the Party, and frequently succeed in catching them—Mrs. Parsons herself seems afraid of her zealous children. The children are very agitated because their mother won’t let them go to a public hanging of some of the Party’s political enemies in the park that evening. Back in his apartment, Winston remembers a dream in which a man’s voice—O’Brien’s, he thinks—said to him, “We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.” Winston writes in his diary that his thoughtcrime makes him a dead man, then he hides the book.</span><span>


The Chapter 1 summary may be a little long and this summary is from another website so you'll want to put it into your own words, but hopefully this will make it easier than trying to do it straight from the book.

Hope this helped :)
