I don't know if I'm completely correct, so please don't get mad at me, but I do think that the answer is B. If you think about it, modern poetry has far fewer rules than it used to. Free verse has become a very popular form of poetry, and that is my reasoning. I hope this is helpful!

Answer from: guko

Meter and alliteration are less important today (B).

In the 14th century, poets used meter and alliteration frequently in thier poems. Just look at almost any historical poem from that time and you will likely find a specific meter and alliteration used throughout. In modern times, however poets are more likely to write free-verse poems or poems without any specific meter or alliteration. This allows poets to express their ideas without worry of sticking to a specific meter or using alliteration. However, meter and alliteration are used in modern poems as well, just less frequently.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
