30 pts which alliterative phrase from the poem creates a grateful mood? “and then to awake, and the farm, like a wanderer white” “and green and golden i was huntsman and herdsman” “my wishes raced through the house high hay” “golden in the mercy of his means,”

"Golden in the mercy of his means"

Explanation:

In this poem, Thomas creates a grateful mood by talking about the "mercy" of Time. In the poem, Time is personified, highlighting how important his presence is for the boy. We know that the boy is young and happy, but we also know that he will not be so forever. Therefore, Thomas is grateful in this line, as he thanks Time for being merciful enough to allow the kid to have this experience.

a simple sentence has one independent clause.

compound sentence

a compound sentence includes more than one independent clause, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, for, nor, or, so, or yet).

complex sentence

i prefer to read books that are bestsellers.

a complex sentence includes one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. (a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone.) types of dependent clauses include relative clauses (i kicked the boy who pinched me), adverb clauses (i am going home now because i have a curfew), and noun clauses (i don't know what to do next).

compound-complex sentence

although i prefer to read current bestsellers, i do like to read old agatha christie mysteries, and i also like some 20th-century science fiction.

compound-complex sentences take a bunch of clauses (multiple independent clauses, and one or more dependent clauses) and toss them together like a salad. although these sentences take practice to write in a grammatically correct fashion, they can hold a tremendous amount of meaning, and are common in academic writing.
