Before we answer this question, let’s make sure we understand the definition of each pair.


Quatrain - A stanza with four lines. It usually has a rhyme that is the same in the last letter of every line. Here’s an example of a quatrain from "Stopping by Woods On a Snowy Evening" By Robert Frost.


<em>"He gives his harness bells a shake</em>

<em> </em>

<em>To ask if there’s some mistake.</em>

<em> </em>

<em>The only other sound’s the sweep</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Of easy wind and downy flake."</em>


Couplet - A pair of two lines in a stanza with the same end rhyme. Here’s an example of a couplet from "Green Eggs and Ham" by Dr. Suess.


<em>"I do not like green eggs and ham</em>

<em> </em>

<em>I do not like them </em><em>Sam</em><em> I am."</em>


Octave - A stanza with eight lines in it. Here’s an example of an octave from "What is life?" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.


<em>"Resembles Life what once was held of Light,</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Too ample in itself for human sight?</em>

<em> </em>

<em>An absolute Self, an element ungrounded</em>

<em> </em>

<em>All, that we see, all </em><em>colours</em><em> of all shade</em>

<em> </em>

<em>By encroach of darkness made?</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Is very life by consciousness unbounded?</em>

<em> </em>

<em>And all the thoughts, pains, joys of mortal breath,</em>

<em> </em>

<em>A war-embrace of wrestling Life and Death?"</em>


Sestet - Usually the last six lines of a sonnet. Here’s an example of a sestet from "When I Have Fears that I May Cease to Be" by John Keats


<em>"And when I feel, fair creature of an hour!</em>

<em> </em>

<em>That I shall never look upon thee more,</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Never have relish in the faery power</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Of unreflecting love! — then on the shore</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Of the wide </em><em>world</em><em> I stand </em><em>alone,</em><em> and think</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink."</em>


Now that we all understand the definitions and have read a few examples, let’s match each tile to its pair.


The tile from <em>"Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe </em> should be paired with sestet.


The tile from <em>"In Memoriam" by Alfred Lord Tennyson </em> should be paired with quatrain.


The tile from <em>"Nothing Gold Can Stay" by Robert Frost </em> should be paired with octave.


The tile from <em>"Hero and Leander" by Christopher </em><em>Marlowe</em>  should be paired with couplet.

1) The correct answer is: B) Developing

The word <em>develop </em>means to invent something or bring something into existence. <em>Refine</em> refers to the improvement of the idea by making small changes, that means the idea already exists, it is only modified.

2) The correct answer is: A) Refining

The word <em>focus </em>refers to pay attention to something, in this case an idea. From the options given, <em>refine </em>is the best choice as the idea already exists and improvement is needed. To do that, you need to focus on it paying attention to the small details.

3) The correct answer is: B) Well

Remember the difference between <em>good </em>and <em>well </em>is that the first one is and adjetive so it is used to modify nouns, and the second one is an adverd used to modify verbs. Fore example: you can be a <em>good </em>citizen, or you can read a <em>good </em>book. In the other hand: the car ran <em>well </em>or the kid played <em>well</em>.

4) The correct answer is: B) Tastier

Remember that to make comparatives and superlatives an -<em>er </em>or -<em>est </em>is used with most of one syllable adjectives and with certain two syllable ones. In this case <em>more </em>or <em>most </em>is not used because tasty has only two syllables. And you use the -<em>er </em>because you are comparing the meal with others.
