Question

read the poem
oses,\ by george eliot.
you love the roses—so do i. i wish
the sky would rain down roses, as they rain
from off the shaken bush. why will it not?
then all the valley would be pink and white
and soft to tread on. they would fall as light
as feathers, smelling sweet; and it would be
like sleeping and like waking, all at once!
what is the main style difference between
oses\ and
ight\?
○
oses\ uses a more modern form.
○
ight\ uses a rhyme scheme.
○
ight\ uses trochaic pentameter.
○
oses\ uses iambic pentameter.

Explanation:

To determine the main style difference, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: "Roses" (by George Eliot) is in a more traditional, non - modern free - verse - like form, so this is incorrect.
• Option 2: "Night" (assuming it's a poem with a rhyme scheme, e.g., many classic poems use rhyme schemes) while "Roses" here does not have a strict rhyme scheme. This is a valid difference.
• Option 3: Trochaic pentameter has a specific stress pattern (stressed - unstressed). There's no indication "Night" uses this, and it's not a main style difference compared to "Roses".
• Option 4: "Roses" does not follow iambic pentameter (unstressed - stressed, 5 beats per line) as its lines have varying lengths and rhythms.

Answer:

B. "Night" uses a rhyme scheme.
