Read the excerpt from "My City” by James Weldon Johnson. Will it be that no more I shall see the trees
Or smell the flowers or hear the singing birds
Or watch the flashing streams or patient herds?
No, I am sure it will be none of these.

How does the poet’s use of punctuation develop the tone of contemplation in this excerpt?

It forces the reader to consider whether the speaker is presenting truthful ideas.
It explains to the reader that the speaker is consumed by memories of the past.
It helps signal to the reader that the speaker is grappling with a particular thought.
It pushes the reader to engage in trying to answer the question the speaker poses.

the correct answer is a. how to make proposal that works.

indeed, the register is quite formal and the tone is especially objective as it avoids the use of the first and second person singular (i, you) and opts instead for the third person plural which is more impersonal and focuses on the data and the argument that is being developed by the author. the formality adds the impression of respectability to the work and the impersonality adds objectivity to it.

hello! i am thinking the answer is d. to convince parliament to go to war against nazi germany

sorry if i am wrong

the eye wink at the hand; yet let that be / which the eye fears, when it is done, to see.
