I went out to the hazel wood, Because a fire was in my head, And cut and peeled a hazel wand, And hooked a berry to a thread; And when white moths were on the wing, And moth-like stars were flickering out, I dropped the berry in a stream And caught a little silver trout. —"The Song of Wandering Aengus," William Butler Yeats Which words were said with emphasis when read aloud? Why would a reader most likely say these words with emphasis?
Answer:
And when white moths were on the wing.
Explanation:
In poetry, emphasis can be simply understood as certain words or phrases that has stress or carries weight to grasp the readers' attention.
In the poem "The Song of Wandering Aengus" by William Butler Yeast, the lines "And when white moths were on the wing" were said with emphasis when read aloud. This is because the poet used a lot of alliterations in the line by putting words like 'when', 'white', 'were' and 'wing'. Sometimes the poetic device of alliteration is used by poets to grab the attention of the readers. Thus, it becomes the emphasis of the poem when read aloud.

Based on the conversation between Braling and Smith regarding Braling's mention of taking "a walk to buy a cigar," do you think that Mrs. Braling is aware that the man she is sitting with in the room is NOT her husband? Provide an explanation for your answer using text evidence.
Answer:
Mrs. Braling is NOT aware that the man she is sitting with in the room is not her husband.
Explanation:
In Marionettes, Inc. Mrs. Braling is a controlling wife who never lets her husband do anything he enjoys. She trapped him into marrying her and their marriage is loveless and lacks affection.
When Braling duplicated himself to deceive his wife so that he can go and enjoy himself, Mrs. Braling does not realize it since the duplicate Braling has been acting exactly as the real Braling. She has no idea that she has been sitting with a duplicate of her husband, this can be confirmed when in the end of the story she gets surprised when someone kissed her cheek, saying “Why—you haven’t done that in years,” This shows that even though the duplicate confesses to Braling that he is in love with Mrs. Braling, he has not been acting out of character, so she is completely unaware that the man she has been sitting with is not her husband.

can someone give me an introduction paragraph for teen angst pleasseeeee I need it for today!!
will mark brainiest :)
Answer:
A common assumption about teens is that they are ill tempered, unpredictable and spoilt people. Their life s characterizes by sexual awakening and crises about confidence and identity. Many teens‘s lives are marked by failures and rarely do they appreciate their parents whether they are right or not. Very few people enjoy their teenage as normal people should. It’s therefore safe to conclude that teen angst is more or less an act of life. The angst is chiefly brought by development of new body features, introduction to sex, access to new freedoms and youth idealism.
