Question mark

Poets use various poetic devices in their pieces to express more meaning than the words do alone. Each poem is different in the way it uses these poetic devices and illustrates an idea. Alfred Lord Tennyson and Edgar Allen Poe are two great poets with very different styles of poetry. Despite using some of the same literary techniques, they each incorporate poetic devices to express meaning in their poems. Both Tennyson’s “Charge of the Light Brigade” and Poe’s “The Raven” use narrative, repetition, sound, and symbols to bring the readers into their stories. “Charge of the Light Brigade” is a narrative poem that tells the story of the Light Brigade of the British forces as they attack the Russian forces. One of the British leaders miscommunicates a message and, as a result, the Light Brigade charges into the mass of Russian forces without any backup or support. This tragic mistake results in the death of many members of the Light Brigade. There are probably many history books and newspaper articles that tell the story of the Light Brigade, but Tennyson’s poem of the battle brings another layer of meaning to this story. The readers can feel the emotions of the Light Brigade as they march towards probable death. The narrative poem interjects respect for the Light Brigade’s bravery and honors them for their actions. A book about the Light Brigade would focus on the event, the outcome, war, but the narrative poem focuses on the people and the character they display. Tennyson is…

"No, no," said the full stop. The writer lifted the flap, pulled the tab to slide the punctuation mark into place, and ended another sentence with a question mark. The Soulless Man The Soulless Man left the city and sat on the far side of the hill. His mind was as sad as night. No light could dispel the gloom. And he cried, "Lead me to salvation." The earth opened her mouth and swallowed him. The earth was void and darkness was upon the deep. How great the darkness! A long thin hand…

Not only reading, but she can also comprehend easily of what she reads. She can answer the questions asked about the text. However, her retelling of the story is not cohesive. It is not very well organized and the sequence of the story are not in order. She reads fast and because of that she makes errors and go back to read the words to make sure that she reads them…

"Why?" he asked at the supper table that night. It wasn't a common question in the Garner house. There were plenty of "how's"—How much rain'd the backfield get? How's the planting going? Even "what's"—What'd Matthew do with the five-sixteenth wrench? What's Dad going to do about that busted tire? But "why" wasn't considered much worth asking. Luke asked again. "Why'd you have to sell the woods?" Luke's dad harrumphed, and paused in the midst of shoveling forkfuls of boiled potatoes into his…

“How are cocoons made? Do wings pop out when they become butterflies?” That is two of the many questions Michael asks throughout the day. For these inquiries, it happened during his small group reading, in response to the story, Farfallina and Marcel, by Holly Keller. The content describes the relationship between a caterpillar and a bird; and by the time the children finished reading, Michael’s question shows his zeal to acquire more information. Nonetheless, at the start of the period, Michael…

most of our concern lies in one question depicting a schematic diagram of a circuit, along with a few general answers, labelled A, B, C, D, and E, and multiple questions afterwards asking which letter (answer) corresponds the best (refer to the "Thinking" page on the test if possible). We found that some of the questions were to vague to answer with confidence, and some answers were strangely worded, making us less confident giving any answer to any question. The main ambiguity (the one we…

understand it. Everyone may have their own way of annotating a text, but some techniques used are writing brief summaries, listing or numbering ideas, sketching pictures and charts to explain difficult concepts, making predictions of possible test questions, note confusing ideas for clarification, and underlining key points( faculty.catawba.edu/unbothered/war/text annotation.pdf).…

interpreted as a means of launching the dialogue on its path, on which Socrates and other characters delve upon it. Lysimachus is concerned with the outcome; he regularly gets involved throughout Laches and as they (Laches and Nicias) failed to answer to Lysimachus and Melesias' question, concludes with a desire to meet Socrates. Lysimachus' naive assumption actually marks the transition in the argument of the dialogue, that a solution will be found if they acquire an umpire to adjudicate…
