<span>In "Nothing Gold Can Stay," Robert Frost alludes to Eden because B. Eden's short-lived perfection is similar to the temporary perfection of nature;s first green.
Eden, of the Heaven, was perfect until Eve tried the apple that the snake told her to and was thus expelled from Eden along with Adam. Thus, Heaven was no longer pure and pristine as it used to be. Similarly, in spring, nature turns green and everything blooms, but that doesn't really last for a long time, given that it changes during the fall.

Read The Lady Or The Tiger?, by Frank Stockton
How did the king keep from feeling guilty about this form of justice? *
a. He did not watch the festivities.
b. He made his daughter in charge of signaling judgement
c. He said the criminals made their own choices, not him.
d. He was barbaric and just did not feel guilty.
Answer: c. He said the criminals made their own choices, not him.
Explanation:
The arena of the king was meant as a device of poetic justice, where a crime was punished, or virtue rewarded, depending on what was thought to be an impartial test. Given the chance to choose one out of two doors, the criminal would face either the punishment of a tiger´s attack or the reward of a woman to get married to. Whether they would be punished or rewarded was established based on their own choice, making the King feel like has no responsibility for the result.

The correct answer is:
<span>[O say what stranger cause, yet unexplor'd,
Could make a gentle Belle reject a Lord?]
The poet is wondering why a girl would ever reject a man who is hitting on her and wants to marry her. It is implied that women had no say in this - that their marriage depended solely on the man and that they couldn't choose at all. The entire poem is quite satirical and meant to mock these kinds of ideas and behaviors.

Answer:
The central idea of this paragraph is:
D) Elizabethans faced a variety of challenges in staying healthy.
Explanation:
This paragraph concerns the varied and terrible challenges people who lived in Elizabethan England had to face constantly. <u>It was not only the case of worrying about one specific disease. They were constantly bombarded with several types of diseases, killed by viruses and bacteria. And that was not all. They were also killed in acts of violence and frequently got hurt while working. This paragraph, thus, shows us that staying healthy in Elizabethan England was a most difficult task. No wonder even young people died in great numbers. Their notion of hygiene and safety back then was far inferior when compared to ours.</u>
