Answer:

1. parallelism

Explanation:

The device the author uses throughout the passage is parallelism.

Parallelism is known to be the positioning of two or more phrases or clauses in such a way that they have the same grammatical function in a sentence. This device helps to make writing effective and enjoyable when reading.

From the given passage, we will see that the author employed parallelism. We see parallelism in the following lines of the passage:

<em>Nowhere</em><em> do we find  such instructive errors as in the sphere of philosophy; </em><em>nowhere</em><em> is the new so essentially a completion and development of the old, even though it  deem itself the whole and assume a hostile attitude toward its predecessors; </em><em>nowhere</em><em> is the inquiry so much more important than the final result;  </em><em>nowhere</em><em> the categories "true and false" so inadequate.</em>

From the above, we see that after a semicolon, the author maintains a structure using <em>nowhere.</em>

Also, we see parallelism in the following as well:

<em>The spirit </em><em>of the time and </em><em>the spirit</em><em> of the people, the individuality of the thinker,  disposition, will, fancy - all these exert a far stronger influence on the development of philosophy, both </em><em>by way</em><em> of promotion and </em><em>by way</em><em> of  hindrance, than in any other department of thought.</em>

and in

<em>If </em><em>a system gives classical expression to the thought of an epoch, a nation, or a great  personality, </em><em>if </em><em>it seeks to attack the world-riddle from a new direction, or brings us nearer its solution by important original conceptions, </em><em>by </em><em>a subtler  or a simpler comprehension of the problem, </em><em>by</em><em> a wider outlook or a deeper insight; </em><em>it</em><em> has accomplished more than</em><em> it </em><em>could have done by bringing  forward a number of indisputably correct principles.</em>

Hence, we see that parallelism is used throughout the passage.

What is the effect of the refrain in the poem?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Refrain is a poetic device in which the poet repeat some words or lines at the end of a stanza. This tradition has remained from past, when poems were mostly recited not written, and refrains made a poem easier for listeners to remember. Another purpose is to create a rhythm and make readers or listeners to pay attention to main theme or point of a poem.
