Explanation:

1. Illogical

We can't conclude that Jazmin is from Junior's Town just by the fact she owns a bike. Because it doesn't say that ONLY people from Junior's Town own a bike. There must be someone else outside Junior's Town, in the world, that owns a bike. However, if she was from Junior's town, we could conclude she owns a bike.

2. Logical

The syllogism is true this time. Brandon congratulates every one of his friends when they get perfect scores. Kenneth is Brandon's friend and he got a perfect score. So, Brandon congratulated his friend for his perfect score. That doesn't mean that Brandon doesn't congratulate his friends on other occasions.

3. Logical

Zero brothers of Monica drive a car. That means if you're a brother of her,you have 0 chances of driving a car at this moment. Jensen is a brother of Monica, so he cannot drive a car.

4. Illogical

The first statement says MANY. Because of that, you cannot say the car accident was absolutely caused by drunk driving, because there are other causes for accidents, otherwise ALL accidents would be caused by drunk driving. You could say it "could have been caused by drunk driving" . Plus technically, it's not sure the accident was a road accident, could have taken place in a parking.

5. Logical

The first statement includes an absolute component (nightly, meaning every night, ALL nights, etc). Then the second statement is related to the first one (8:30 PM), and the conclusion makes sense.

6. Illogical

The statements only relate Damian to Illac and Damian to Red. With the information provided, there's no way to make a conclusion for the relation between Iliac and Red. For example, Damian could weight 50 kg, Illac could weight 40 kg and Red 30 kg, and the statements would be true. But they would also be true if Illac was 30 kg and Red 40 kg. Yet, the conclusion would be different.

7. Illogical

There's nothing that says that Friday is a special occasion. If the first statement would have said "Students wear their class shirts on special occasions or on Fridays" or if the second statement would have said "Today is a special occasion, it's Friday", then yes it would have been true. But not as is.

8. Illogical

Since the first statement is using SOME... there's rarely a definitive conclusion you can make out of it... since it's not an absolute (ALL, NONE, ALWAYS, NEVER, etc). For the conclusion to be true, the first statement would have been something like "ONLY doctors like mainstream jazz", but then... what about mainstream jazz musician? They're all doctors too?

9. Logical

The first statement lists an absolute fact (ONLY), and the second statement is directly related to it (both are Mondays). So, the conclusion makes sense.

How does Donne use the metaphysical conceit in this poem in Sonnet XIV? Do these comparisons help you as a reader to understand

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Donne uses the extended metaphor of a ‘city’ not only in ‘Holy Sonnet XIV’ but also in ‘Loves War’. In this Elegy which was written in Donne’s youth, he describes a ‘free City’ which ‘thyself allow to anyone’ – a metaphor for how anyone can enter a woman [ii] – and goes onto say how in there he would like to ‘batter, bleeds and dye’. Here, Donne is controlling the ‘city’ and taking over it himself, however, if Donne intended to use this same metaphor in ‘Holy Sonnet XIV’, the roles have changed and it now signifies how it is Donne who needs to be seized by God’s spirit. Furthermore, this represents how Donne’s life and therefore attitude has changed between writing these poems; he used to feel in control but now he is controlled.

The physical verbs that are used immediately sets the violent theme of the octave. The spondaic feet emphasizes Donne’s cry for God to ‘break, blow’ and ‘burn’ his heart so he can become ‘imprisoned’ in God’s power, creating a paradoxical image of a benevolent God acting in a brutal way. He uses a metaphysical conceit to explain how he is ‘like an usurp’d town’ with God’s viceroy (reason) in him. This imagery of warfare that pervades the sonnet symbolises his soul at war with himself; only if God physically ‘overthrow’s’ Donne and ‘batters’ his sinful heart will he be able to ‘divorce’ the devil. It was around the time of writing this poem that Donne renounced his Catholic upbringing which gives evidence to the assumption that the sin he was struggling with began to overpower his Christian beliefs and needed God become as real to him as God was to his respected Catholic parents. Furthermore, in ‘Holy Sonnet XVII’ Donne exclaims how ‘though [he] have found [God], and thou [his] thirst hast fed, a holy thirsty dropsy melts [him] yet. This reveals that Donne feels that even though he has found God, his yearning is not satisfied which gives evidence towards the assumption that he is crying out for spiritual ecstasy. This paradox between freedom and captivity was most frequently written about by most prison poets such as Richard Lovelace [iii] Donne wrote, ‘Except you enthrall me, never shall be free’ which implies the same idea as Loveless in ‘To Althea, From Prison’ that true freedom is internal, not external, symbolising his struggle with sin whilst he is physically free.

Every morning, he trains with Kwame and Enzo.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pronouns are the words used in the place of nouns to avoid repeating the word in a sentence.

For instance, if I am talking about my friend "Lara", and telling about.

"Lara is a tall girl. Lara have a blonde hair. Lara loves reading books."

So, to avoid the repetition of the noun, we use pronouns like "she" or "her".

Lara is a tall girl. She have a blonde hair. She loves reading books."

In the given sentence, the nouns are "Kwame" and "Enzo".

The correct pronoun to replace this is option B: Them.

"Them" is used to represent the group of people that have experienced the action described by the verb in the sentence. The action described in the sentence is "train".

So, the correct option is B.
