1.
A.)
The second line has parallel structure, and the repetition of the “g”
sound is more pleasing to the ear.
2.
B.) The diction has more flow because of
the comparison in the “o” sound of fools and Apollo’s.
3.
A.) The comparison of the crows croaking
to the snow has better flow than choice B, because “whiteness” sounds awkward
in the line.
4.
B.) The diction used is stronger for the
description of silent water because of the use of the word “twilight” which
complement the “t” sounds in silent and water.
5.
B.)
The “r” sound stresses movement and illustrates how the dove moves and the
sounds reflect nature.
6.
B.)
The “r” sound is stressed by the word
choice of “lark” and “warble”, as well as the repetition of the “d” sound in
the second line.
7.
B.)
The author uses alliteration and the “b” sounds has a sharp effect and
compliments the topic because the poet is talking about war.
8.
B.)
“Hands” and “repeatedly complement each other because of the “d” sound. Choice
A does not flow because the first line ends with “incessantly softly”, and the
repetition of “ly” at the end of the line does not flow to the next.
9.
B.)
The first lines has similar sounds by the use of “tolls” and “knell”. Choice B
is better, because the word choice complements each other and is more suitable
to what the lines are describing.
10.
A.) The word choice of “odious” and “gilded”
to describe the bug is well suited because of the sounds the two words make
when placed next to each other. The sounds give off a negative connotation,
because “odious sounds like a bad thing, which leads to the next line when the
bug bites.
