There are many different types of rhymes under which poets work. The various kinds of rhymes are Slant Rhymes, Eye Rhymes, Identical Rhymes. The most common way to write a rhyming poem is by using a rhyme scheme which comprises of vowel sounds and consonants. There is no specific number that lines should not cross while writing a poem. But, a poet must keep in mind while structuring a poem that he should follow the same pattern from the start to end according to his form and style. The three most common types of poems are lyrical poetry, narrative poetry, and Descriptive poetry.

Read the statement below. Then decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be prepared to support your opinion with details from the speech. Here's your discussion prompt: The voting age in America should be changed from 18 to 16.

Answers

Answer:

I agree

Explanation:

There is a world-wide general development of teenagers becoming adults sooner (or teenagers with adult behaviour) in every possible way.

Modern technology (my little 5-year old daughter know how to use a cellphone better than I do) and a modern society, where the clear authoritarian generation-division of parents and children is diminishing, are factors that contribute to more and more 'teen-adults'.

So yes, I think it is a good idea. What should be a real point of discussion is  the deeply felt sence in this country that politicians no longer present the people anymore. There is something seriously wrong with the whole American democracy and its voting system.
