Answer:
The description characterizes women as sneaky and malicious beings who act conscientiously to deceive those around them.
Explanation:
The lines presented in the above question are from the poem "Amoret" written by William Congreve, where he makes constant use of paradox to show the difference in how women act and how they really are. According to the poem, women act in a naive, shy, and careless way to convey an image of fragility and enchant those around them, however all these actions are coldly planned in a malicious and sneaky way, as women are the opposite of that.
It is probably (a) because it is all about manufacturing new things and (d) doesn’t really make sense because it doesn’t mention other nations, i hope this helped :)
C, he rescued civilians, hope this helps :)
Automatically, eliminate B. C is true, but it isn't the critical theme of the poem. (Tip: If most options are accurate, pay attention to the question. What is it asking you?) First, find out what the poem is telling you. Notice that in the beginning, it sort of has a calming tone to it "There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,". Soft is the keyword of it setting a calm tone. It then talks about a war and that how no one will care if it is done. Nobody would mind if mankind were gone. Not even the animals. Now, let's go back to our answer choices. It was A and D but now that we reread it, let's look at our choices again. A talks about the beauty of nature and it's harmony with humanity. Uh, harmony? When did it mention that? What I caught from the poem was that nature would not care if humanity left for good. That doesn't exactly scream harmony between the two. D says that this seems like an anti-war poem. Oh? Well, it DID say that if the war we had was over, nobody would care. Wars tend to do some damage and I imagine we must have damaged the animal's habitat during that war. If I were an animal and I found out that humanity was gone, I'd be happy since now they won't be able to destroy my habitat anymore! I guess that's what the author meant by when they put that the animals wouldn't care. Make sense? So, the answer would be D.
