I'd say that the excerpt from Ben Jonson's Song to Celia that compares love to intoxication is C. But might I of Jove's nectar sup, I would not change for thing.
I presume that this nectar is alcoholic, and he wouldn't take it over her.

The excerpt from Ben Johnson's novel 'Song to Celia', which compares intoxication to love is this: BUT MIGHT I OF JOVE'S NECTAR SUP, I WOULD NOT CHANGE FOR THING.

An individual is said to be intoxicated or drunk, when such a person is in a state, in which his ability to control himself both physically and mentally has been significantly reduced as a result of drinking alcohol. The sentence given in option C compares love to intoxication; the speaker of the statement is saying that even if he could drink nectar from Jove's cup, he would rather prefer to have Celia's cup. In the novel from which this excerpt is extracted, nectar is depicted as a divine drink, the drink of the gods.

Your English teacher has asked you to write a story. Your story must begin with this sentence: (Nobody knew where they were) 150
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Nobody knew where they were. Nobody had an idea as to when they disappeared. Everyone was worried that they had been kidnapped by someone evil. Leo, Carlos, and Zealand have been reported missing since las saturday but nobody knows for sure when they disappeared. The police made search parties to help find them. Many suspected that they went too deep into the forest and got lost. A woman, in her late 70's told the policemen that anyone who goes too deep in the forest at night, never gets found. The policemen didn't listen to her, because everyone knew her as "Crazy Maylie". Something they didnt know that I knew was that for once, she was right. the stories have it that anyone who dares roam too deep into the lakewood forest after 12am, never make it out. I being who I am, decided to test the theory. I packed 3 puddings, vanilla flavored. I packed a sandwich, a galon of water and a whistle, in case I was lost. At 1:26 in the morning, I started to head into the Lakewood forest. I walked, in complete darkness. Only the moon provided a bit of light. My phone lost signal and my flashlight wouldnt turn on after I reached a certain depth of the forest. My mom must have found out by now that im missing. But I didn't care. I wanted to be the hero and save my friends.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is number 2. Team Moon, written by Catherine Thimmesh (2006), is a book that portrays the enormous effort of the 400.000 people who made Apollo 11 land on the moon. But not only that, it concretely reflects the emotions felt by those people whose dedication, suffering, and strength gave place to such historical event.
