Answer:
A. who scorned the tick of the falling weather.
Explanation:
A traditional villanelle is a poetic form that has five tercets and a quatrain that acts as the closing stanza. The tercets are a three-line stanza while a quatrain is a four-line stanza. Moreover, it follows a pattern where the first and last line of the first tercet acts as the third line in the following tercets, alternating between the two.
Simply put, the first line of the first stanza will become the third line in the second and fourth stanza. Similarly, the third line of the first stanza will become the third line of the third and fifth stanzas. and these two lines will become the closing lines of the quatrain.
So, in keeping with the traditional villanelle structure, the last line of the poem "Lament" by Sylvia Plath will be <u><em>"who scorned the tick of the falling weather."</em></u>
Answer:
C. assertive is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The dashes should be inserted between "bridge" and "an", and the second dash should be between "gorge" and "while".
Without the hyphens, the sentence is a bit too long and over-connected. There needs to be some sort of pause to describe the bridge the jumper is jumping off of.

That is in correct plural form
<span>A.
</span>unfortunate and miserable
The best response is the first reply because downtrodden
means trampled upon, crushed, depressed.
One way you can help yourself in the future when looking to determine the
meaning of a word is to try to replace it with synonyms. That said, if you replace “downtrodden” with “depressed”
or “sad,” the sentence still makes perfect sense. However, what if you don’t know
synonyms? In that case, try to look at
the parts of the word. For instance, the
prefix of “downtrodden” is “down.” That
said, “down” is typically a word associated with “sad.” Thus, one could make the connection that “downtrodden”
is synonymous with “unfortunate” and/or “miserable.”
