1. I believe the correct answer is <span>D. He is at least able to feel comforted thanks to the love of another. The speaker talks about the turmoil and anxiety he feels while trying to escape "</span><span>the world's prying eye". He is trying to run away from people and all humanity, being disappointed or ashamed. The last three lines express some kind of solace that he has found, thanks to love. But this love doesn't necessarily have to be a romantic love. It can also be God's love.
2. I believe the correct answer is </span><span>A. old and close to death. He unequivocally talks about the passing of time and imminent death. His lover has to reconcile with this fact. This is not a statement that seeks comfort, but a grim reconciliation with the fact that death is near. The speaker bids his lover to love him even more now that it is clear that he won't live much longer.
3. I believe the correct answer is </span><span>C. spiritual terms. This sonnet doesn't describe love in a physical or even romantic way. We don't even get to learn anything about her beloved. It depicts love in a spiritual way, with the use of adjectives "freely", "purely". The speaker loves her lover in thousands of ways, and she hopes her love will spread beyond the grave, and even grow stronger.</span>
Answer: Number 6 and Number 4
Explanation:
Answer:
<em>"Before Long, ordinary people were allowed to run their own businesses"</em> develops the paragraph's sequence structure.
Explanation:
The phrase <em>"before long"</em> means not a long time ago, or simply in near past, in recent times. So the sentence<em>"Before Long, ordinary people were allowed to run their own businesses" </em>means that it was not long time ago, or it was just recently that people were allowed to start their own businesses.
A sequence structure tells the reader in the order in which the events or steps occur. e.g before, next, then, before long are some of the sequence text structure.
We need to understand who the witches are and what they represent overall to understand this scene better. Whenever the witches are shown in the play <em>Macbeth</em>, they are usually foreshadowing later events in the play. In the play, when the witches meet with Macbeth, they call him "Thane of Glamis," "Thane of Cawdor," and "king."
This scene is significant overall. Thane of Glamis is Macbeth's original title, so he anticipated being called that. However, he had not, at this point, received word of King Duncan's choice to name him Thane of Cawdor, so he is confused by this proclamation. He is also confused by being called king as they inform him he will one day be king.
It is during this scene that Macbeth is informed of his new title and he realizes that the witches have essentially told him his fortune. The timing of all this is very significant because it proves to Macbeth that what the witches tell him is true. Without this, it is unlikely that he would have believed the "prophecy" that they tell him of his future.
Here we can see some unusual use of syntax, as the sentence doesn't follow the "normal" structure of SVO (subject, verb, object). In this case, the answer is the third option, it follows a verb (danced ... away)-object (the night)-subject (the excited party-goers) format. Thus clearly the remaining options cannot be applied here in this example.
