The excerpt from "Song Of Myself " by Walt Whitman is an example of ______.

A.Diction
B.Anaphora
C.A Catalogue
D.Onomatopoeia     The Answer Is Catalogue .

Answers

The answer is anaphora

Answer:

I believe the answer to be C. catalogue.

Explanation:

Diction is basically the writing style of an author, determined by his choice of words. Anaphora consists of the repetition of a part of a sentence with the purpose of emphasizing an idea or its importance. Onomatopoeia refers to words that represent a sound by imitating it. None of those options related to the excerpt we are studying here:

Of men that live among cattle ...

Of builders and steerers of ships and the wielders of

axes and mauls, and the drivers of horses ...

Even though there is some repetition in the excerpt, it does not constitute an anaphora. It consists merely of the preposition "of", not a phrase. What we can note, however, is that the author is making a list of things and people with the purpose of creating a rhetorical effect. That is what we call a catalogue. This rhetorical device is constantly used by Walt Whitman in "Song of Myself" since he tries to list the things that he loves - the whole world - while he celebrates.

Negative connotation is the use of a word's implied meaning to describe someone or something negatively.

In the context, the connotation makes the word appear pleasant or affirmative. The opposite of a positive connotation is a negative connotation.

Answers

The second one I would say

The correct answer is B. The James Madison Memorial Building, built in 1981, houses the Folger Shakespeare Library.

Explanation:

In grammar, a nonessential element is a word or set of words that provide information about a previous noun or any other element in the sentence. This is considered as nonessential because it provides extra information but it is necessary to have a complete sentence, because of this, in most cases commas are placed to enclosed the element, which means a comma is placed before and after the nonessential element. In the case, fo the sentence presented the words that only provide extra information are "built in 1981" and therefore the correct option to separate the nonessential element is "The James Madison Memorial Building, built in 1981, houses the Folger Shakespeare Library".

Why is "Through the Tunnel" a coming-of-age story? Because Jerry goes through a rite of passage in "Through the Tunnel," the story is classified as coming-of-age story. In "Through the Tunnel," swimming through the tunnel is important to Jerry because he wants to impress the older boys. In "Through the Tunnel," Jerry does not challenge himself. In "Through the Tunnel," Jerry does not feel as emotionally close to his mother as he does to his father.

Answers

Just based on the options I would say it's a coming of age story because he goes through a rite of passage. I don't think it would be because he does not feel as close to his mother or that Jerry does not challenge himself. It could possibly be because he wants to impress the older boys but i think the first option is more likely as in real life people do go through rites of passages as they come of age.

Answers

They both share valid information about a specific object

I would say that one of their main advantages is that they allow asynchronous communication. That means that the information provided can last through time and space, the reader or viewer doesn't need to present at the time the material is developed. That is the reason we can enjoy books that were written hundreds of years ago or that someone in China can watch the same video as me.

As a result they both are great for communicating a message, information or telling a story to entertain, they reach places where other media is unaffordable.
