Which statement best summarizes William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130? My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more

red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask'd, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.
A. Sonnet 130 compares and contrasts the speaker’s mistress with beautiful elements in nature and finds her more beautiful.
B. Sonnet 130 is a traditional love sonnet with the speaker giving numerous descriptions of his mistress’s beauty and positive qualities.
C. Sonnet 130 parodies a traditional love sonnet by bringing out the flaws in the physical beauty of the mistress.
D. Sonnet 130 lists a multitude of flaws in the beauty of the mistress in order to show her in an uncomplimentary light.

The answer to this question is definitely C.

If you sent this poem to a woman and meant it to be a compliment, you'd soon get your head handed to you. In pieces.

And yet many poems were written with the words coral, white (like fresh fallen snow), hair [a really touchy subject for any man to make a comment about]. breath -- it's wonder he didn't say anything about feet.

D is wrong. He doesn't want to show her in an uncomplimentary light. He wants poets to stop using cliches.

A is wrong. What beautiful things in nature? She is not as good as any that are mentioned.

B They are not positive qualities. Not in these lines.

Answer:

It depends on the matter, such as how Susan B Anthony broke the law of being a woman voting in my eyes such thing is silly to be a law and to be arrested for, other matters such as murder, theft, and plenty of other things should never be okay to break the law for. I would only break the law over things I feel is ridiculous and it should be done such as what Susan did when she voted, I would've also voted as a woman because she did nothing wrong in my opinion. I may not have much personal experience so let's instead look at Rosa Parks who was arrested because she wouldn't give her seat up to a white person, heck I most certainly would not have to, when Rosa broke that "law" of not getting off her seat for the white person she did nothing wrong in that act but was still arrested for it and again in my eyes she did not do anything wrong by breaking that law.

Explanation:

Hope this helps i wrote it off the top of my head :) stay safe!!

The aspects that would be highlighted in a summary would be the terror that the characters felt during the night because the cries of the wolves increased and seemed to be getting closer and closer.

<h3>Why should these aspects be highlighted?</h3>
  • Because they form the central idea of the text.
  • Because they are important to describe the actions of the characters.
  • Because they set the tone of the text.

A summary should be made with the most important points of a text. These points must be able to highlight the most important element so that the reader understands the original text, even without reading it.

In the text shown in the question above, we can understand that the main element is the fear felt by the characters. This fear is highlighted by the arrival of night, as visibility is low and they can see that fierce wolves are getting closer and closer to them.
