Answer:
slant rhyme hope it helps if it doesn't I'm sorry
Hello there! I personally believe the answer will be:
the contents of a new textbook
The other ones seemed rather informal. Weekend plans with friends have no formality at all. As do the places to shop online for new shoes. The last one could be a candidate but it seems like something you would talk about with a friend or family member. Not so much your boss!
Hope this helped!
Answer:
Any poem of more than fourteen decasyllabic lines, or less than fourteen, is not a sonnet. Poems of sixteen or more lines are sometimes styled sonnets, but they have no right to the title. Any poem in any other measure than the decasyllabic is not a sonnet. And, strictly, the rhymes should be single, and never double.

Answer:
<em><u>D. The Senator's fondness for media exposure proved to be his Achilles' heel in the end.</u></em>
Explanation:
An allusion is a figure of speech that references people, places, events, or other literary works such as mythology. They can be implied or directly stated.
A. We squirmed in our seats as a deafening silence followed the host's poor attempt at humor.
This sentence does not meet the definition of an allusion, so <u>A. is incorrect.</u>
B. If all the world's a stage, I must be the one who sweeps up after the show is over.
This sentence is a metaphor since it describes the world as a stage. A metaphor is not the same as an allusion, so <u>B. is also incorrect.</u>
C. Our annual family reunion is like a circus with a disproportionate number of clowns.
This sentence is a simile. The narrator uses the work "like" to describe his/her family union as a circus. This means option <u>C. is incorrect.</u>
D. The Senator's fondness for media exposure proved to be his Achilles' heel in the end.
This sentence meets the definition of an allusion. It makes a reference to a literary work, in this case the Greek hero Achilles. <em><u>D. will be your correct answer.</u></em>
