is this right?
To understand why the poet states that "he was sure it wouldn't go well," we need to analyze the given excerpt. The key phrase in question is "he wasn't sure." From this, we can infer that the character had doubts or uncertainties about a particular situation.
The poet then states that "he was sure it wouldn't go well." This statement contradicts the initial uncertainty expressed in the previous line. By saying that he was sure it wouldn't go well, the poet is emphasizing the character's pessimistic outlook.
Now, let's examine the answer choices:
A. "This provides rhyme to make the words poetic": The given excerpt doesn't seem to prioritize creating a poetic sound or rhyme. Rather, it focuses on the character's emotional state and thoughts.
B. "This provides rhyme to emphasize key words": While the excerpt does repeat the phrase "he was" and uses repetition, it doesn't seem to be emphasizing particular words or phrases for any specific reason.
C. "This provides repetition to emphasize the theme": This answer choice is a possibility. The repetition of being unsure and then stating a certainty might highlight the theme of uncertainty or doubt in the poem. However, it is not explicitly stated in the excerpt.
D. "This provides repetition to create a poetic rhyme": Creating a poetic rhyme is not the primary purpose of this statement. Instead, the repetition of the character's certainty serves to emphasize the negative anticipation or expectation.
Based on the explanation, the most appropriate answer is option D. This provides repetition to create a poetic rhyme.
