Read this excerpt from Walt Whitman's poem "I Hear America Singing" from Leaves of Grass I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear,
Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong,
The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work,
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand
singing on the steamboat deck,
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as
he stands
Whitman most likely uses this structure for his poem to
O present a poem with a natural, conversational rhythm
show his talent for using traditional rhyme scheme.
share a narrative poem using the storytelling structure.
O reflect a lyrical style using stressed and unstressed syllables,

The correct answer is A. Present a poem with a natural, conversational rhythm

Explanation:

In the poem "I Hear America Singin" Whitman uses mainly free verse technique, which does not have a specific rhyme or rhythm but tries to reflect natural speech that does not follow a specific structure. You can see this if you analyzed the structure of different verses, for example, the first verse "I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear" contains 15 syllables without a specific pattern, while the verse "The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work," contains 17 syllables, which shows the structure is irregular. Despite this, the repetition of words such as "singing" and the use of words creates a natural, conversational, and interesting rhythm. Thus, the structure of the poem "presents a poem with a natural, conversational rhythm".

A: present a poem with a natural, conversational rhythm.
