In "Il Penseroso," John Milton describes how the poem's melancholy speaker prefers gentle and soothing dreams of sleep to the ha

rsh light of day. Which lines in this excerpt from "L'Allegro" contrast with those ideas?
There let Hymen oft appear
In saffron robe, with taper clear,
And pomp, and feast, and revelry,
With mask, and antique pageantry;
Such sights as youthful poets dream
On summer eves by haunted stream.
Then to the well-trod stage anon,
If Jonson's learned sock be on,
Or sweetest Shakespeare, Fancy's child,
Warble his native wood-notes wild.
And ever against eating cares,
Lap me in soft Lydian airs,
Married to immortal verse,
Such as the meeting soul may pierce
In notes with many a winding bout
Of linked sweetness long drawn out,

In "Il Penseroso," John Milton describes how the poem's melancholy speaker prefers gentle and soothing dreams of sleep to the harsh light of day. The lines in the above excerpt from "L'Allegro" which contrast with those ideas are:

“Married to immortal verse, 

Such as the meeting soul may pierce 

In notes with many a winding bout 

Of linked sweetness long drawn out,”

John Milton's "L'Allegro" and IL Pensoroso" are lyric poems in which the speaker asks melancholy and sadness to go away from his life and dwell at some other place. He calls the goddess of joy and asks her to bring happiness into his life. The poem reflects on the lives of the people and how melancholy and mirth helps them to attain the true meaning of life.  The poet invites melancholy to dwell with him as he thinks that it carries peace, happiness, and contemplation with it.

Why does the author include information about the dry climate?
just olya [345]

Answer:

C) To explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish

Explanation:

The given question refers to an excerpt from <em>The Travels of Marco Polo</em><em>:</em>

And let me tell you something else. They have sheep here that have no ears, nor even ear-holes; but in the place where ears ought to be they have little horns. They are small creatures and very pretty. And here is something else that may strike you as marvelous: their domestic animals—sheep, oxen, camels, and little ponies—are fed on fish. They are reduced to this diet because in all this country and in all the surrounding regions there is no grass; but it is the driest place in the world.

The options you were given are the following:

A) to explain why sheep have horns but no ears

B) to explain why sheep in the region are so small

C) to explain why people in the region have to feed their animals fish

D) why there are such large quantities of fish available

The correct answer is C. Sheep feed on grass. The climate of the described region is so dry that there is no more grass, so sheep no longer have anything to eat. Instead of letting them die, the people began feeding them fish. The rest of the options are not consequences of the dry climate.

Read the excerpt from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
kompoz [17]

Answer:

The option that best describes how Anaya effectively uses rhetoric in the excerpt to convince readers that his conclusion is justified is:

B) Anaya establishes his credibility as a published Chicano author by discussing his career experience.

Explanation:

Rhetoric concerns the use of devices and strategies to convince the audience of your opinion or perspective. A commonly efficient way to do so is by establishing your own credibility concerning the subject. That is what Anaya is doing in this excerpt. He gets to talk about language and culture in American literature, and be taken seriously while doing it, due to his credibility as a published Chicano author. His life and career are devoted and dependent on this subject, which gives him some sort of authority to discuss it.

: Explain Beowulf’s reasoning behind the method he will use to fight Grendel. What does this reveal about the relationship betwe
ddd [48]
Beowulf tells Hrothgar that he will fight Grendel with his bare hands, as Grendel doesn't fight with weapons (it seems he can't even be killed with a blade). The only help Beowulf will get is the help of his warriors. Beowulf is aware that the lives of all his warriors are at stake, and anticipates that Grendel will eat them if they fail, but he is still eager to do this. This reveals that the leader is always the first one to fight, in front of his followers. But although he vouches for their lives, they must follow him to death, if need be.
Just like Beowulf is a leader to his warriors, Hrothgar, as a king, is the spiritual leader of the realm. Beowulf yields to him and wants to fight and even die for him, as Hrothgar represents the God's will on Earth. When the realm is physically endangered by a murderous, devilish villain, it means that the God's order on Earth is symbolically endangered, and it takes a hero to restore it.
