Answer: This is an example of a Shakespearean sonnet because of:
- the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet
Explanation:
In 1609, Shakespeare published 154 sonnets, among which is Sonnet 19. The poem deals with the power of time.
This sonnet is representative of a Shakespearean sonnet because:
- It follows the typical the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter (a rhyme scheme in which each line contains ten syllables -five pairs which are called iambs). For instance, <em>"But I forbid thee one more heinous crime." </em>
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet. The first twelve lines in a sonnet are divided into three quatrains (each containing 4 lines), followed by a couplet (two lines written in the same rhyme and meter).
Answer:
Miguel Street is a collection of linked short stories by V. S. Naipaul set in wartime Trinidad and Tobago. The stories draw on the author's childhood memories of Port of Spain. The author lived with his family in the Woodbrook district of the city in the 1940s, and the street in question, Luis Street, has been taken to be the model of Miguel Street.[1] Some of the inhabitants are members of the Hindu community to which Naipaul belonged. Naipaul also draws on wider Trinidadian culture, referring to cricket and quoting a number of lyrics by black calypso singers.[2]

The correct answer is TRUE. Both commas and parentheses are used to set off parenthetic expressions, but each has their own set of rules to follow when setting off some words in the sentence. Like for example, one way to use parentheses is to set off a phrase that is not part of the subject. On the other hand, we use commas to set off a phrase that serves as an additional information to the sentence.
