What effect does william carlos williams achieve by breaking up the words wheel barrow and rain water and placing them in separate stanzas, and how does this effect contribute to the theme of the poem? the red wheelbarrow so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens. a. the separate stanzas force readers to stop and consider the parts that make up each word, which reflects the theme that all elements, however small or mundane, make up a greater whole. b. the separate stanzas force readers to stop and read each word carefully, which reflects the theme that all elements must be considered individually to appreciate their true value. c. the separate stanzas force readers to note the position of each word, which shows how rain is dependent on water and the wheelbarrow is dependent on the wheels. d. the separate stanzas force readers to read each word carefully, which emphasizes the alliteration in wheel and water and the consonance in barrow and rain. e. the separate stanzas force readers to note the use of the adjectives red and glazed, which present a fresh and crisp image.

The correct alternative is "B. The separate stanzas force readers to stop and read each word carefully, which reflects the theme that all elements must be considered individually to appreciate their true value."

B) The separate stanzas force readers to stop and read each word carefully, which reflects the theme that all elements must be considered individually to appreciate their true value.
