What is a way to narrow a topic for a research paper

Make an organizer, separate out your topic into different sections and decide whether you have enough content to fill your paper. If there is too much content, maybe your topic is too broad, and if you can't find enough research or information, then maybe it's too narrow.

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.

- i.a -

because he is using a description to provide evidence to support his argument.

hope this could
