First of all, it is important to define preposition phrase in order to find it in this sentence. We can say that "<span>a prepositional phrase will begin with a </span>preposition<span> and will end with a </span>noun<span>, </span>pronoun<span>, </span>gerund<span>, or </span>clause<span>, the "object" of the preposition"
</span>
*In this case, we find UNTIL TODAY as the only prepositional phrase presented. until is the preposition and today is the noun.

How does the rhythm of iambic pentameter contribute to the meaning of "Sonnet 130"?
Rudiy27

Answer: The consistent rhythm softens the speaker's unkind words about the subject.

Explanation:

<em>Sonnet 130</em> <em>" My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun"</em> was written by William Shakespeare. In this poem, Shakespeare mocks other artists for their exaggeration while describing their lover's beauty. He describes his loved one in a more realistic way - he compares her to a number of things, but notes that she has nothing in common with them.

In all of his sonnets, Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter. This is a form which consists of five feet (the first syllable is unstressed while the second is stressed). The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef gg. The very consistency of the rhythm makes Shakespeare's strange comparisons less harsh.

Which statement best explains why the animals readily accept the increased workload?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

They believe that all of their work benefits the community of animals and ultimately is for the best.

Explanation:

George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is an allegorical play showing how a group of farm animals rebelled against their human master to form their own government. The play deals with themes of greed, a struggle for power, hierarchy, corruption, equality, etc.

In Chapter V, Napoleon declared his intention to build the windmill which meant everyone must put in extra work. This meant that they will have to do their usual work added to the workload of constructing the windmill. But the animals accepted that without any complaint. Chapter VI starts with the statement<em> "All that year the animals worked like slaves. But they were happy in their work; they grudged no effort or sacrifice, well aware that everything that they did was for the benefit of themselves and those of their kind who would come after them, and not for a pack of idle, thieving human beings."</em>

This shows that the animals readily accepted the increased workload because they believed that it is for the benefit of the whole community and their future generations.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Answer:

Who am I

Who am I?

Mustn't you know

But your ignorance is much a blow
