Portraits are being compared to a beautiful, elegant sunset.
The speaker is saying that a portrait is much more fine and beautiful than other faces one sees throughout the day, and a typical evening's sunset is, similarly, not as beautiful as a shiny, smooth-looking sunshine.

17. Direct object is what I think
Answer: If Jenny has 50 tiles and she puts them in order, one next each other, and creating four rows of the same lenght (the same number of tiles), to, in this way form a rectangular area, we can calculate how many tiles are in each row by dividing 50 0 by 4 (50 tiles in 4 rows), the result is 12 (12 tiles in each row) and the remainder is equal to 2, which is the number of tiles that will be left over.
