English
1 answer:
fgiga [73]4 years ago
6 0

The sentence that contains an allusion is:

'Diego's  love a skull in the circular window'

Explanation:

The beautiful poem 'Sonnet in Primary Colors' celebrates the work and life of Frida Kahlo one of the great artists of the 20th century and her troubled life.

The poem contains many beautiful imagery metaphors and allusions and this particular line of allusion stands out as a richly loaded one.

It talks about Frida's lifelong lover Diego and his very long phases of infidelity to her which went on for life but she refused to leave him.

This line alludes to that love of his that had gone awry by the use of a skull.

Based on Shakespeare's descriptions in "All the World's a Stage," with what age does infancy have the most in common?
andrezito [222]
<span>The correct answer is B. old age. It is a common saying that over time, as people grow old, they become more like children again. At first this is only psychologically but usually at one point when people are too old they also need physical help as if they were children, having to wear diapers, be fed, and many similar things.</span>

Select the correct text in the passage.
Paraphin [41]
I agree with the person above - the correct answer is He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
This line clearly shows how different these two men are - pines and apples are obviously quite different. On one hand, there is this neighbor who wants to build a wall between him and the world, and on the other, there is our narrator who wants to tear the wall down.

How does the poet’s use of alliteration enhance the description of Grendel’s wounds?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

It helped to make the descriptions stick more to the reader

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the repetition of the initial consonant letters in a string of words. The author's use of alliterations in the poem Beowulf helped to impress the depth of the damage done by Beowulf to Grendel on the minds of the readers. Below is an excerpt of the description:

A body-wound suffered

The direful demon, damage incurable

Was seen on his shoulder, his sinews were shivered,

<em>His </em><em>body did burst</em><em>. </em>

The repetition of the same letters impresses th idea on the mind of the reader. Indeed the damage done to Grendel as great for even his sinews were visibly wounded and his body suffered some tears too.
