Question 1

According to “Dulce et Decorum Est,” what is the tone in which the author writes? What examples can you give?

Answer 1

Your Answer:
He writes mournfully for the soldiers fighting.

For example when the author said: “All went lame; all blind; Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.” it sounded mournfully to me and “And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin.”

Question 2

According to "Anthem for a Doomed Youth" what provides the music for the anthem?
  anger of the guns 
  rifle's firing 
  choirs 
  prayers

Answer 2

rifle’s firing

Question 3

According to “The Happy Warrior,” what is the description of a happy warrior? Why do you think the author describes the warrior as “happy?”

Answer 3

Your Answer:
In the poem, a happy warrior is one who stabs and seeks the blood of a man. I believe the author describes the warrior as happy, because is heart beats wildly with his hands clenched and he is searching for the next victim.
