English

Answer:

personal language; their life.

Explanation:

Confessional poetry is also called the poetry of the "I," as it is highly personal. Confessional poets would usually write about their own life experiences, and this led to the appearance in literature of topics such as death, trauma, depression and deviant behaviour that had not been openly discussed in literature before. Some authors who followed this trend were Robert Lowell, Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, and W. D. Snodgrass.

Which statement best compares the two passages? The first passage hints that the family should not trust Walter with money or bu
ch4aika [34]

The statement best compares the two passages in that the first passage hints that the family should not trust Walter with money or business matters, and the second passage confirms it.

<h3>What are the comparisons between both the passages?</h3>

The first passage intimations that no trust should be placed in Walter regarding business matters and Beneatha and Ruth respond to this by interchanging diverted looks, which allow that this is an open lie.

And in the second passage, we get the confirmation of what is hinted in the first when the Mother, after finding out what happened, starts propelling her son, in anger, not recognizing him as her son, until Beneatha interacts.

Therefore, option A is correct.

It's lines from Shelley's sonnet Ozymandias, and to make sense of it you need to put them in context. Here's the whole poem, with your lines in bold:

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

So, your first line is part of the words engraved on a pedestal, boasting about the great works of the king Ozymandias. But the boast is ironic, because the works have been destroyed by time: only two huge fight and the shattered face of what once must have been a statue remain. "Nothing beside remains", our narrator tells us - there's nothing else left.
And, round the decay of that huge wrecked statue, all there is is sand - metaphorically representing the sands of time, which has brought the mighty (in this sense, quite literally) to its knees.

Shelley, in these lines, is pointing out how the pride, egotism, and powerful feeling of immortality possessed by this ruler has turned to dust, and how "nothing beside remains" of his majestic kingdom and royalty.  The monument to this leader sits in the middle of a desert, abandoned, forgotten, eroding away.  However, during the king's time period, he probably felt that he was immortal and all-powerful, and hence had his statue inscribed with the ominious "Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!" logo that was meant to emphasize his power.
But now the traveller is looking on all that is left of the ruler's works, and doesn't feel despair; rather, he feels pity, or nothing, as all that is left of the king's kingdom is the desert, "boundless and bare/The lone and level sands stretch far away".
