Question

complete the rhyme scheme.
i wandered lonely as a cloud \t\t|
that floats on high over vales and hills, \t|
when all at once i saw a crowd, \t\t|
a host of golden daffodils; \t\t|
beside the lake, beneath the trees, \t|
fluttering and dancing in the breeze. \t|
adapted from william wordsworth, \i wandered lonely as a cloud\

Explanation:

To determine the rhyme scheme, we analyze the end - rhymes of each line:

• Line 1: "cloud" rhymes with Line 3: "crowd" and Line 4: "daffodils"? Wait, no. Wait, "cloud" (Line 1) and "crowd" (Line 3) have the same vowel and final consonant sound. "hills" (Line 2) and "breeze" (Line 6)? No, "hills" and "breeze" don't rhyme. Wait, "trees" (Line 5) and "breeze" (Line 6) rhyme? Wait, let's do it properly. The standard rhyme scheme for "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" is ABABCC.
• Line 1: "cloud" - let's assign A.
• Line 2: "hills" - assign B (since it doesn't rhyme with "cloud").
• Line 3: "crowd" - rhymes with "cloud", so A.
• Line 4: "daffodils" - rhymes with "cloud" and "crowd"? Wait, "daffodils" and "cloud" - the end sounds: "cloud" is /aʊd/, "daffodils" is /ɪlz/. Wait, I made a mistake. Wait, the correct rhymes:
• Line 1: "cloud" (/aʊd/)
• Line 2: "hills" (/ɪlz/)
• Line 3: "crowd" (/aʊd/) – rhymes with Line 1, so A.
• Line 4: "daffodils" (/ɪlz/) – rhymes with Line 2, so B.
• Line 5: "trees" (/iːz/)
• Line 6: "breeze" (/iːz/) – rhymes with Line 5, so C.

So the rhyme scheme boxes should be filled as:
Line 1: A
Line 2: B
Line 3: A
Line 4: B
Line 5: C
Line 6: C

Answer:

Line 1: A
Line 2: B
Line 3: A
Line 4: B
Line 5: C
Line 6: C
