I think there is a shift at “...assured him”. From reading the beginning, you would think the person is under arrest, “stay where you are”. But, the sentence goes on to say that the police officer ‘assured’ him that. He could’ve been in danger, so the officer was telling him that help was on the way, just stay put.
Answer:
B. to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion.
Explanation:
The lines present in the question were taken from Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. <u>The two lines at the end, or the final couplet, are structured in a different way from the others because their purpose is to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion. Throughout the poem, the speaker is "criticizing" the woman he loves. </u>While Petrarchan sonnets were usually used to elevate women to an impossible status, comparing them to natural elements and concluding that they were always more beautiful, Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 does the opposite. The woman is a normal one, not more beautiful, sweeter, nor better smelling than anything else. <u>Still, at the final couplet, after all that criticism, the speaker says he loves her. Not only does he love her, but he won't lie about her. He loves her for who she really is.</u>
The sentence that does not use slang or jargon is:
- After I arrived home from work, I plopped down on the couch and turned on the television.
<h3>What is slang?</h3>
Slangs are some kind of words that are used in informal situations. All the sentences above use slang and jargon, but sentence C does not use such informal language.
All the words used can be applied in formal language. Plopped in that instance means a clumsy way of sitting down. So option C is right.
