1. Friendship can bring out a person’s best qualities. How does Mary’s friendship with the robin bring out her better qualities?
lina2011 [118]
1. Mary's friendship with the robin helps her. It helps her realize that she is lonely, so she starts to the the robin and not feel so lonely, The robin is very smart even though he cannot speak he can communicate in other ways.

2. Martha encourages Mary to learn how to play like other children do when they don't have anyone to play with. Martha also refuses to continue to allow Mary to act like a spoiled brat and instead determines that Mary will become more independent and strong as long as she is taking care of her.

3. Mary finds herself changing for the better, as she spends more time outside she gains her strength and her appetite increases. Mary learns to take care of herself instead of depending on others to everything for her.

4. The theme is about healing. By discovering how beautiful nature is. Once a person such as Mary is in tune with nature, she realizes that genuine beauty and happiness comes from within her.

Which statement best summarizes William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130? My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more
finlep [7]

The answer to this question is definitely C.

If you sent this poem to a woman and meant it to be a compliment, you'd soon get your head handed to you. In pieces.

And yet many poems were written with the words coral, white (like fresh fallen snow), hair [a really touchy subject for any man to make a comment about]. breath -- it's wonder he didn't say anything about feet.

D is wrong. He doesn't want to show her in an uncomplimentary light. He wants poets to stop using cliches.

A is wrong. What beautiful things in nature? She is not as good as any that are mentioned.

B They are not positive qualities. Not in these lines.
