The best paraphrase of Benvolio's lines is Once you see other beautiful girls at the party, you will see that Rosaline is not so special.  

We can see all the keywords in the lines:

At this same ancient feast of Capulet’s (fest is a synonym of party),

With all the admired beauties of Verona: Go thither; and, with unattainted eye Compare her face with some that I shall show, And I will make thee think thy swan a crow. (this part compares Rosaline with all the girls at the party and he assures him that he could surely find a so much more beautiful girls there)

The other options are not correct because:

If you go to the party you will see that Rosaline is, in fact, the most beautiful girl in Verona. (this sentence expresses the complete opposite of Benvolio's message)

Compare Rosaline with other girls from Verona and then decide whether she is worthy of your love. (It is not about deserving love or not, it is about Romeo realizing that she is not special at all)

There are many girls in Verona who are just as beautiful and desirable as Rosaline. (This sentence only talks about half of Benvolio's idea, reason why it is incomplete)

Consider this quote from Poorna in the section “The Death Zone”: “I could see my goal above me. I could not turn back.” What doe
sergejj [24]

Answer:

It tells me that Poorna was a determined and tenacious girl.

Explanation:

This quote from Poorna Malavath, the thirteen-year-old girl who set on the journey to reach the summit of Mount Everest, the tallest mountain in the world showed that she was resolute and determined in her goal. The death zone was a very dangerous path that must be crossed before reaching the summit of the mountain.

There, the air became very thin and there was a limited supply of oxygen but just above the death zone was the summit of the mountain. That was why Poorna never gave up but kept being determined to never stop at the death zone but keep going on.

Which sentence below contains a spelling error?
Llana [10]

The sentence 'I recieved her letter of resignation' contains a spelling error.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The correct spellings of 'recieved' are 'received'.

The word 'receive' means getting something from someone or something. For example: Allison received a medal for winning the drawing contest. In this sentence, Allison was given a medal by her school.

The word follows a very old and common English vocabulary rule called: I before E except after C. According to this rule, in certain words, alphabet 'i' shall be placed before alphabet 'e' as long as they are preceding the alphabet 'c'. For example: In F-R-I-E-N-D, I is placed before E as they are not [preceding the alphabet C; which in this word does not exist entirely.

But, if the letters 'i' and 'e' are to be placed right after alphabet 'c', then the 'e' shall precede 'i'. For example: In words such as 'R-E-C-E-I-V-E' and 'P-E-R-C-E-I-V-E', E precedes I as they both are placed right after 'c'.

To avoid this common mistake, it is advised to refer to a spell check.

bazaltina [42]

Answer: D

Instead of giving in to death, people should fight against it.

Explanation:

"Do not go gentle into that good night" This sounds like the author is saying to put up a fight--don't let death come easily.
