What line best indicates the state of the statue?" (In "OZYMANDIAS")

English
1 answer:
Fantom [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

"Round the decay/Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare"

Explanation:

Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem "Ozymandias" describes a traveler's encounter with an ancient statue of Ozymandias and how dilapidated it had become. The poem is suggestive of the destructive power of nature and how man's works seemed mere obstacles for the stronger power of nature.

In the words of the poet through the traveler, we can know that the once-mighty statue of Ozymandias had now become <em>"a shattered visage [with] wrinkled lip."</em> Though proudly displayed with the words <em>"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!",</em> the only thing that remained is a <em>"decay[ing] colossal wreck"</em>.

The words <u>"decay" and "colossal wreck" best indicate the state of the statue</u>.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Most plays have a narrator who tells you what a character is like. <br><br> True or False
earnstyle [38]

FALSE. A narrator is usually a person who narrates the story, otherwise known as the main leading character in the story. While he might have certain perceptions about the other characters around him, he doesn't necessarily tell the readers what the other characters are like. The narrator in a play is usually from a second person point of view, speaking in "you" form, but this one doesn't allow you any window into what the other characters are like; if anything, it usually just describes the setting or tells you who is entering the scene.
