Answer:
I believe the experience of reading the poem aloud is different because:
The sounds and rhythms of the poem are easier to understand when it is read aloud.
Explanation:
"How Do I Love Thee" is a poem by English poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, of the Romantic Movement. The poem has a beautiful rhyme scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD. <u>The rhyme scheme is easy to notice when reading the poem silently, however, when we read it aloud, we can better notice its rhythm. The poet used a technique called enjambment, which is the continuation of a sentence across a line break. </u>Take a look at the lines below:
<em>I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
</em>
<em>My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
</em>
<em>For the ends of being and ideal grace.</em>
<u>See how the first line continues into the second, which continues into the third one? They are all but one long sentence. Reading the poem aloud gives us the chance to notice that the rhythm changes when that happens. Instead of having a break after each line, we go on and on.</u>
Answer:
From the passage, I can infer that:
The desert cities with increasing population experience drought due to low rainfall which causes problem to the populace.
Explicit detail from the passage: "The most obvious issue is the lack of water."
Implicit detail from the passage: "This population boom is hard on the desert environments of these cities."
Explanation:
An explicit detail gives a very clear and well understood detail. It is umabiguious and without vagueness. While an implicit detail does not give a very clear and direct detail. It is usually implied or assumed.
From the passage, we can see that lack of water is found in deserts. The detail is explicit and with facts.
But saying that the population boom is hard on the desert environments seem implied or the author's assumption.
As verbs the difference between cry and bawl. is that cry is to shed tears; to weep while bawl is to shout or utter in a loud and intense manner.
So it should be "Bawling is a much louder form of crying'
Hope this helps
