CBSE English sample paper class-XII ques-07(a).png

Select the option that is NOT true about the lack of punctuation at the end of line 1 in the extract.

A. Creates a sense of continuity and flow that connects the line with the second line.

B. Encourages the reader to continue reading seamlessly without any pause.

C. Creates a sense of anticipation and expectation for the reader.

D. Encourages a revisit to the ideas in the preceding lines.

Answer:

So, the correct answer is (D) Encourages a revisit to the ideas in the preceding lines

Step-by-Step explanation by Teachoo:

To answer this question, you need to understand the effect of punctuation (or the lack of it) on the meaning and tone of the extract. 🧠

  •  In this extract, the poet does not use any punctuation at the end of line 1. This means that he does not want to create a pause or a break between line 1 and line 2. 🚫
  •  He uses this technique to create a sense of continuity and flow that connects the two lines . He also creates a sense of anticipation and expectation for the reader, who wants to know more about what he is saying. ✅  
  • Option D is not true about the lack of punctuation at the end of line 1. It says that it encourages a revisit to the ideas in the preceding lines .

However, this is not what the poet wants to do. He wants to move forward with his ideas, not look back at them. Therefore, the correct option is (d)❌
