Answer:

I will resist the urge to stay out late and go home before midnight is the correct.

Explanation:

Using the dictionary entry that's provided in the question, the first option is correct, since the word <em>resist</em> is being misused.

In the second one, the word <em>resist</em> is misused too, since the sense of the sentence might be <em>help</em>.

The third option is also incorrect since the word <em>resist</em> is a verb and in the sentence is not used this way.

The last option is the correct answer because it gives the idea that the speaker <u>attempts to counter the actions or effects</u> of staying out late.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The purpose of these lines is to express love by likening a loved one to a nice day.

Explanation:

Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18" expresses admiration for a young person - many say it is a young man, but the sonnet itself does not make it clear who the speaker is addressing. The speaker compares this "fair youth" to a summer's day, but this person is more temperate, more lovely. While summer can be filled with extremes - sun shining too hot or too dim; rough winds -, the addressed person is more pleasant. While summer does not last long, this person's beauty shall last forever, immortalized in this sonnet, read about by people in years and years to come. The purpose of the sonnet is to express love and admiration for this person; the comparison with the summer's day is a tool that serves that purpose.
