"Your subjects hope, dread Sire—

English
1 answer:
ra1l [238]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

d) The success she wishes for the king

Explanation:

Hyperbole is a <u>literary device</u> that employs the usage of exaggeration to drive home the point being made or allured to; it must never be taken literally.

From the excerpt (second and fourth line), we see the answer to the question:

In line 2 "The crown upon your brows may flourish long", Wheatley expressed her desire to see the king reign for a long time. Line 4 "O may your sceptre num'rous nations sway" is Wheatley hoping and desiring the king conquer and take over more territories and nations.

<u>As such, we see Wheatley uses hyperbole to show the success she wishes for the king</u>

Refer to Explorations in Literature for a complete version of the poem.
nataly862011 [7]

This poem is an example of brilliant short lyric which is sectioned into three stanzas. Each stanza carries six lines which help create a simple structure and a regular rhyme scheme- ABABAB.

The author wrote this piece of work in iambic tetrameter. Multiple poetic devices are utilized by Lord Byron, such as alliterations, imagery, metaphors, as well as similes. The diction is also very clear without any complex connotations which ultimately assists the readers to understand the poem more easily.

Therefore, after my analysis of this work, I suggest you to choose option "a", because the author's motif is none other than the option beneath this paragraph.

a) By organizing the poem into three short and even stanzas, Byron is able to convey the work's themes directly and succinctly.

What does the word reorganize mean in the following sentence? Carrie decided to reorganize her closet before the new school year
lina2011 [118]
The answer would be (D), put in order again.
If we look closely we can see that the word "reorganize" is really just re+organize. Re is a prefix, and it means "again". 
We know that to organize is to order, and re means again, so reorganize would mean "to put in order again."
Hope I helped! ;)

Which sentence uses an example of figurative language?
Eddi Din [679]

The correct answer should be C. The smell of bacon and eggs was my alarm clock on cold mornings.

To help you in the future, just remember that figurative language is essentially just a statement that isn't literal. In A and B, both of those things actually happened. However, for C, bacon and eggs didn't start ringing an alarm to wake them up.
