Which of the following elements does not contribute to the dreary mood of this short passage from the novel Bleak House by Charl

es Dickens?
"Fog on the Essex marshes, fog on the Kentish heights. Fog creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs; fog lying out on the yards, and hovering in the rigging of great ships; fog drooping on the gunwales of barges and small boats. Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners, wheezing by the firesides of their wards; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper; fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little 'prentice boy on deck."

Which phrases in this excerpt from ode on a Grecian urn by john Keats suggest that the urn represents everlasting art
gladu [14]
If this is the excerpt:

<span><span>Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard </span>
Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;
<span>Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, </span>
<span>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone: </span>
<span>Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave </span>
<span>Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare; </span>
<span>Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss, </span>
<span>Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve; </span>
<span>She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, </span>
For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair!
</span>
Then the part that reflect the theme that art is immortal is 

Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve; 
<span><span>She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, 

</span>It implies that there is no need for grieving because She cannot fade. She will last for a long time.</span>

Instructions:Select the correct answer.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Now I might be wrong but I'm 99.9% positive that the answer is

5)Juliet's death has made Romeo lose all feeling and not care about anything anymore.

Romeo is upset over Juliet's death and he does lose interest for everything else besides Juliet and how he feels its his fault and it does result in Romeo being suicidal so that's why id pick the last one. Sorry though, if I'm incorrect.

hope this helped!!!
