Read the haiku. in silent mid-night our old scarecrow topples down . . weird hollow echo the effect of the diction in this haiku is to create a pleasing sound. foreboding tone. positive connotation. monotonous rhythm.

The effect of the diction in this haiku is to create a foreboding tone. The images it brings forth are all of apprehension. It leaves you with a feeling of dread and anxiety; an augury of sorts that something unpleasant is about to unfold (silent midnight, hollow echo, etc.)

The fact that the old scarecrow topples down, creating that hollow echo as it does, is not a good omen either.

The correct answer is foreboding tone.

what do you mean

explanation:

  plan: i will begin with a quotation about the importance of unity in a community. then, i will state my claim that an activity will unite our school by creating a shared vision, purpose, and direction. in the body, i will use three main points that describe the different avenues the students can take: through a variety of clubs, through a special event, or through an awareness week. i will provide evidence about other towns that have unity activities and the kinds of events that they include. pictures will illustrate my three main points in action. for the ending, i will restate the main idea in a new way and pose a question to keep the audience thinking.
