Which rhyming couplet from Phillis Wheatley’s “On Imagination” contains an inverted sentence?

English

Veseljchak [2.6K]3 years ago

I think the rhyming couplet that contains an inverted sentence is

"THY various works, imperial queen, we see,
How bright their forms! how deck'd with pomp
by thee!
Thy wond'rous acts in beauteous order stand,
<span>And all attest how potent is thine hand."

because a rhyming couplet contains two lines of the same length that rhyme and complete one thought, and an inverted sentence is a sentence in which the normal word order is being reverted with the verb before the subject with the predicate coming right after a clause.</span>

Which lines in these excerpts from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice illustrate the theme of pride
hoa [83]
Okay I'll give you the excerpts I think you refer to (lines in brackets are options):

<span><span>1. Oh! my dear Mr. Bennet," as she entered the room, "we have had a most delightful evening, a most excellent ball. I wish you had been there. Jane was so admired, nothing could be like it. Everybody said how well she looked; and Mr. Bingley thought her quite beautiful, and danced with her twice! Only think of that, my dear; <span>(he actually danced with her twice! and she was the only creature in the room that he asked a second time. First of all, he asked Miss Lucas. I was so vexed to see him stand up with her!</span>)

</span><span>2. "His pride," said Miss Lucas, "does not offend me so much as pride often does, because there is an excuse for it. <span>(One cannot wonder that so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, everything in his favour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has a right to be proud.")</span>

<span>("That is very true," replied Elizabeth, "and I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine."</span>)

</span><span>3. "Well," said Charlotte, "I wish Jane success with all my heart; and if she were married to him to-morrow, I should think she had as good a chance of happiness as if she were to be studying his character for a twelvemonth. <span>(Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to each other or ever so similar beforehand, it does not advance their felicity in the least.)</span>   --  (<span>They always continue to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to pass your life.<span>")
</span></span></span></span>

I think the answers are all the options of excerpts 1. & 2.

Which word has negative connotations?<br> A. Pastime<br> B. Pursuit<br> C. Chore<br> D. Activity
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Chore

Explanation:

Hi,

Pastime doesn't really have a negative connotation basically means how things agree. Pursuit doesn't either neither does activity. Maybe chore? Kids usually use chores as a way of saying they're being forced to do something they don't want to do. Pretty sure it's the only answer that actually makes sense.

I hope this helps :)
