Question 7 • English IV

Read the excerpt from "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death." I know that I shall meet my fate Somewhere among the clouds above; Those that I fight I do not hate Those that I guard I do not love; What grammatical structure is repeated in this excerpt? Choose two correct answers.

Answer
A
the use of "somewhere," followed by an adverb
B
the use of an adverb to begin the lines
C
the use of "I do not," followed by a verb
D
the use of "Those that I," followed by a verb
E
the use of a pronoun to end the lines

Explanation

The third and fourth lines repeat the opening pattern “Those that I” before a verb: “fight” and “guard.” They also repeat “I do not” before a verb: “hate” and “love.” So the repeated structures are the use of “Those that I,” followed by a verb, and the use of “I do not,” followed by a verb.
