Read the following excerpt from Alfred Noyes’s narrative poem "The Highwayman." Which three literary elements do these stanzas contain?


The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees.

The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas.

The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,

And the highwayman came riding—

Riding—riding—

The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.


He’d a French cocked-hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin,

A coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of brown doe-skin.

They fitted with never a wrinkle. His boots were up to the thigh.

And he rode with a jewelled twinkle,

His pistol butts a-twinkle,

His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jewelled sky.


Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard.

He tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and barred.

He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there

But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter,

Bess, the landlord’s daughter,

Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.

These days, fewer and fewer traditional incandescent lightbulbs are being used in homes. This is because lightbulb technology has improved since incandescent bulbs were developed. Incandescent bulbs work by running electricity through a wire inside the bulb. The wire glows, creating light. However, incandescent bulbs waste a lot of electricity by producing heat rather than light. In the past several years, less wasteful LED lights and compact fluorescent bulbs have become increasingly popular for home use.

Which option best evaluates how well the following summary reflects the original passage? Incandescent bulbs are a great form of technology.

A. The summary is weak because it does not accurately convey the meaning of the passage.

B. The summary is strong because it states the main idea of the passage and the most important supporting detail.

C. The summary is strong because it gives a good overview of the passage without getting into minor details.

D. The summary is weak because it focuses on a supporting detail rather than the main idea of the passage.​
