Answer:
The writing of "The Isle of Dogs" by Ben Jonson and Thomas Nashe.
Explanation:
In the given excerpt from "The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England", the author talks about Ben Jonson. He gave a description of the life of Jonson, the events in his life.
But most of all, he also gave the detail about how the writing of the book <em>The Isle of Dogs</em> led to a drastic event in history. Co-authoring the book with Thomas Nashe, the book was deemed <em>"so slanderous and offensive that the privy council orders the closure not just of the play but of every theatre in London."</em>
Thus, we can safely say that the writing of the book most directly caused the council to order the closure of all theatres in London.
Answer: B) "To think of your having such a tragedy in your life!"
Explanation: an irony is a statement or a situation that seems contradictory or different of what the reader or the characters expect. It is often used to criticize something or to introduce a humorous element in the text. In the given excerpt from "Editha" by William Dean Howell, the expression "to think of your having such a tragedy in your life" is an example of the use of an ironic tone, because the woman doesn't really think that war is a tragedy.
What kind of phrase will get the highest grade????
i dunno you tell me pl because i have this question too
Dylan Thomas’ “<em>Do not go gentle into that good night</em>” follows an iambic pentameter. For that reason, each line of the poem (except the second one of the fifth stanza <em>Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,</em>) has ten syllables (five feet). Each foot follows the same pattern: one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable and so on as in the example
Wild men | who caught | and sang | the sun | in flight
The stressed syllable is in bold.
