In sonnet 130, the speaker is making fun of the conventional poetry in Elizabethan England. The sonnets of that time followed the Petrarchan style, using beautiful metaphors to praise an idealised female lover, admiring her beauty and her worth.

I think that writing this sonnet, Shakespeare is mocking a style that had already become cliché at that time. Also, I share the speakers attitude in the way that the idealization of a love interest in such manner, often leads to the creation of beauty standards that are far from the truth and can have negative consequences in the people trying to adhere to them.

stich3 [128]

Answer:

D. Elementary schools in Tooten County continue to promote the values of exercise to its students.

Explanation:

Even though Tooten County have a lower percentage of young families than a typical country, the retail sales of children's bicycles are above the national average most probably because the elementary schools promote the importance of exercise to its students.

Cycling is one form of engaging in exercise and because it is encouraged, the children tend to make demands for bicycles from their parents.

Other options are simply not viable as a plausible explanation because marketing does not always translate to sales, one local manufacturer's sales would be a small sample size to measure the whole county,  where the bicycles are imported from are immaterial, etc.

The most viable explanation would be the the promotion of exercise by elementary schools in Tooten County.
