Answer:

C. They both signify that at whatever point an experience ends, our ability to understand it abruptly changes is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Sonnet 73 is a poem written by English writer William Shakespeare. In literature, irony is a rhetorical device to show that the expectations were different from the real result; there is usually a second intention behind the apparent meaning. In the sonnet, the expectations are an experience to last for ever, and the real situation comes when the end of it is near. The speaker takes hand of elements of nature (such as the golden leaves and the dying fire) to indicate how the end of a situation can lead to a different understanding of it.

Hello, I could probably answer it more surely if the question was provided in its original format. But for how it was presented, I believe the answer would be C. A callout.

A callout (or call-out) in publishing is a short excerpt within a bigger text, somehow highlighted to call the reader's attention out to that part, specially. It can be a short string of text with its words connected by lines, dots, arrows, or similar, a sentence in bold separated from the text, or written in a different format, usually in a larger font. - This one is very common in magazines and newspapers. (and I believe this is the type that was presented on this excerpt original format).
