Answer:

Explanation:

These two sonnets may indeed be addressed to the "dark lady" of his sonnet, and yes she seems to be his lover, However, 130 is much more complimentary and focuses on the mistress' beauty. The use of the similes to compare her various physical features to some natural occurrences helps us to understand how rare he thinks their love is because she is so beautiful. On the other hand, 138 is somewhat negative and uses the word "lie" to do what shakespeare does best, play on words (i.e the use of pun). She lies to him and he knows it, but he listens anyway and ultimately they "lie" together.

Read this excerpt from The Outsiders. I’m different that way. I mean, my second-oldest brother, Soda, who is sixteen-going-on-se
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

- Growing up means accepting oneself.

Explanation:

The theme of the given excerpt from 'The Outsiders' is 'growing up means accepting oneself' as it displays how the speaker has accepted his brothers' distinct choices and their way of life instead of imposing his own interests on them. His brother Soda does not 'crack a book at all' while Darrel, his eldest brother, remains busy with his work and doesn't have time for books, drawing, or movies but he seems to have accepted these differences in their choices. It reflects that with growing up, he's become more mature and accepting.

Select the words of the complete subordinate clause in the sentence below. Then identify it as either an adjective or an adverb
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Subordinate clause: "that they could outsmart the law"

Clause type: Adjective clause

Explanation:

A subordinate or dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb that does not express a complete thought on its own, and therefore it cannot stand by itself: it needs to depend on another clause to have meaning. In a sentence, this type of clause may function as an adjective, an adverb or as a noun.

As an adjective clause, it describes, modifies or adds further information to another noun; and always begins whether with a relative pronoun (who, whom, whose, that, or which) or a relative adverb (when, where, or why).

In the sentence, "that they could outsmart the law" is a subordinate clause because it has a subject (they) and a verb (outsmart) and it can not express a complete thought. Furthermore, it is also an adjective clause because it begins with the relative pronoun "that" and it describes the noun "belief". What belief did they have? "that they could outsmart the law."
