Answer:

The syllables that should be stressed are the ones that appear <u>underlined </u>and in bold:

<em>And </em><u><em>of</em></u><em>ten </em><u><em>is</em></u><em> his </em><u><em>gold</em></u><em> com</em><u><em>plex</em></u><em>ion</em><u><em> dimmed</em></u><u> </u>

Explanation:

Sonnet 18 or "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" Is a sonnet (in Italian, a soneto is a little song) written by William Shakespeare, the writing style he had tackled was that of Iambic Pentameter. This line in which Amber has to identified the stressed syllables is written in ambic pentameter, the latter is the succession of ten "iambs" (unstressed syllable + <u>stressed syllable),. </u>Tu put it differently, it is a sentence that has ten syllables, the first syllable is unstressed while the second one is stressed. When you read this sonnet out loud (or anything that is written in iambic pentametre) it sounds like the beating of the heart or the galloping of a horse.

Which of these excerpts from poems by Emily Dickinson uses irony?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
In my opinion, the whole poem is quite ironic - although she is mentioning the exultation and the royal color of death, the poem itself begins with the narrator saying that she cannot breathe - that she doesn't want to die.
So, I would say that the ironic parts are: 
Exultation is the going
Of an inland soul to sea, -
Past the houses, past the headlands,
<span>Into deep eternity!</span>

Spencer’s blog claims that national parks are the best vacation destinations. Which evidence is best for developing his claim?
MrMuchimi

Answer: A.) a personal account from a park visitor who describes positive adventures at Grand Canyon and Yellowstone park

Explanation: A personal account of someone who visited some key areas of the park would be the best form of advert. This is so because people find it very easy to relate with the experiences of others and this would serve as the best form of advert for the national park.
