Nesterboy [21]3 years ago

It is important to remember that commas are not merely pauses within a sentence, a mistake that is often made and which leads to writing issues. A comma is also a punctuation mark that is used to separate clauses, or ideas and that helps connect them without having to use periods all the time. Commas, according to rules, must be used in the following cases: before using coordinating conjunctions, such as but, and or for, after dependent clauses that begin a sentence, to separate series within a sentence, when you are going to use a clause that clarifies a word, or an idea before it, after introductory adverbs, such as Finally, before a quotation, when setting dates (day, month, year), when using the city-state combinations, after a freestanding word, like no, when you address something or someone directly in a text, between adjectives that modify a noun, among others. In this case, the correct answer is A, because the commas separate the main subject, Mother, the dependent clause in the middle, the main idea, which is that the subject works late and then in between the main idea and its dependent clause, which is that they eat supper at 8 because the mother works late.

What is the metaphor in Line 7? (Sonnet CXVI by William Shakespeare)
Komok [63]

Answer:

A. Love is compared to the guiding star for all earthly travelers.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's (1564-1616) Sonnet 116 is about love. In the start, the poet uses negation by pointing out what love is NOT. According to him love is not that changes with circumstances. In line number 5 he says that love remains the same, like a fixed mark. It is steadfast (<em>O no! it is an ever-fixed mark</em>). In line number 6, he says that love looks on tempests (hard times), and remains the same, meaning hard times can not alter love (<em>That looks on tempests and is never shaken;</em>)

In line number 7, Shakespeare says love is like a star or lighthouse which guides wandering human beings (<em>It is the star to every wand'ring bark</em>). So, metaphor in line 7 of Shakespeare"s Sonnet CXVI is "Love is compared to the guiding star for all earthly travelers."

Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 is;

<em>Let me not to the marriage of true minds </em>

<em>Admit impediments. Love is not love </em>

<em>Which alters when it alteration finds, </em>

<em>Or bends with the remover to remove. </em>

<em>O no! it is an ever-fixed mark </em>

<em>That looks on tempests and is never shaken; </em>

<em>It is the star to every wand'ring bark, </em>

<em>Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. </em>

<em>Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks </em>

<em>Within his bending sickle's compass come; </em>

<em>Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, </em>

<em>But bears it out even to the edge of doom. </em>

<em>If this be error and upon me prov'd, </em>

<em>I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.</em>

Based on that passage, I'd say the young man is active because he's jogging, and friendly he smiled in encouragement to elderly men. Nothing in the passage indicates that he is either intelligent or snobbish.
