3 0
Prepositions describe the relationship between words in a sentence. They usually come before a noun or pronoun and show their relationship through a time, place, or direction. 

Examples of prepositions:
The dog lays beside the sofa. ⇒ <em>Beside</em> is a preposition of place.
After a few weeks, the flower began to bloom. ⇒ <em>After</em> is a preposition of time.
The woman slowly walked away from the mad dog. ⇒ <em>Away from</em> is a preposition of direction.

How do the lines in bold from helen grey help develop the main point or theme of the poem? Use evidence from the text to support
Aliun [14]

The theme of Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem "Helen Grey" is, beauty isn't everything. We know this to be true because the Rossetti describes Helen Grey as "handsome" and "proud" but also says "But so you miss that modest charm / Which is the surest charm of all." This shows the reader that Helen Grey is very attractive and takes pride in her attraction. However, she has let her beauty go to her head, resulting in an unpleasant personality that no man has found her attractive. The last four lines of the poem "Helen Grey" support the its main theme by drawing the reader's attention to the reality of age and time. Time will continue to go by causing Helen to grow old, wrinkly, and gray. Time will pass and with it, Helen's beauty shall pass too. If she does not  change her ways, she will be left with and unattractive personality, and face.

Why is one side of the moon called "the dark side of the moon"?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The reason for that is because we never see it illuminated by reflected sunlight (or Earth light), even though that hemisphere is very often in the direct path of the Sun's light.
