Among rocks, I am the loose one, among arrows, I am the heart among daughters, I am the recluse, among sons, the one who dies young
Apart from emphasis, what other effect does the repetition have?
A. makes the poem rhythmical B. makes the poem tedious C. makes the poem monotonous D. makes the poem exhilarating
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is A.
Explanation: The repetition in the sentence creates a rhythmic structure, which helps in establishing a flow or cadence in the poem. This rhythm enhances the musical quality of the poem and draws attention to the repeated phrases, giving the poem a structured and engaging sound.
Other options: - B. makes the poem tedious: Repetition can create rhythm, but in this case, it enhances the flow, not tedium. - C. makes the poem monotonous: While excessive repetition can lead to monotony, here it serves to create rhythm and emphasis rather than dullness. - D. makes the poem exhilarating: Repetition does not necessarily make a poem exhilarating, as that depends on other factors like content and tone.
Thus, the repetition "makes the poem rhythmical" is the correct interpretation.
