Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C) aba aba

Explanation:

To determine the rhyme scheme in a poem, we must look at the last word of each line. The last word of the first line is becomes the rhyme "a". When other last words sound similar to it, they are also "a". When they sound different, we give them other letters following the alphabet - b, c, d etc. - every time a new rhyme appears.

Let's analyze the excerpt given:

Do not go gentle into that good night, --> first last word, a

Old age should burn and rave at close of day; --> sounds different than night, b

Rage, rage against the dying of the light. --> rhymes with night, a

Though wise men at their end know dark is right, ---> a

Because their words had forked no lightning they --> rhymes with "they", b

Do not go gentle into that good night. --> a

Thus, the rhyme scheme in this excerpt is aba aba.

How do paragraphs 7-8 contribute to the overall structure of the article?
Shalnov [3]

Answer: D. They reveal that Belgium had false motivations for colonizing Africa.

Possible Answer: A. They reveal the central goal of European colonies in Africa.

Explanation: Paragraph 7 explains how Leopold plans of “abolishing slavery” and “establishing harmony” was all a scam. Leading to paragraph 8 revealing that Leopold was only focused on his personal business venture. D sounds like it’s the correct answer because his motivations were false, but the other European colonies were also focused on growing their power, so A could possibly be the correct answer too.
