question 4 of 10

a. rhyme leads the reader to guess at deeper levels of meaning.

b. rhyme creates intense visual images that arouse curiosity.

c. including rhymes indicates that the poem tells an exciting story.

d. knowing that a rhyme is coming creates a sense of anticipation.

Explanation:

Rhyme establishes a rhythmic pattern for readers. As they follow the text, they anticipate the matching sound, which builds a subtle, engaging tension that encourages them to continue reading to fulfill that expectation. The other options are incorrect: rhyme does not inherently lead to deeper meaning guesswork, create visual images, or signal an exciting story.

Answer:

D. Knowing that a rhyme is coming creates a sense of anticipation.
