Answer:

I spent the time playing gin rummy with Timothy. I looked over a few times at my mom, <em><u>however</u></em>, to make sure she was doing okay.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from "Astro-Dad", the narrator described the moment his family, and others, watched as his father left to go to space. And at that moment, he also revealed how he took care of his brother and still checked on his mother.

Now, the use of the word "though" in this excerpt is an adverb to talk of his action of checking on his mother while also keeping his younger brother occupied. And in replacing the adverb with "however", the meaning remains the same.

Thus, the correct replacement is "however".

Answer: This is an example of a Shakespearean sonnet because of:

  1. the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
  2. the widespread use of iambic pentameter
  3. the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet

Explanation:

In 1609, Shakespeare published 154 sonnets, among which is Sonnet 19. The poem deals with the power of time.

This sonnet is representative of a Shakespearean sonnet because:

  1. It follows the typical the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
  2. the widespread use of iambic pentameter  (a rhyme scheme in which each line contains ten syllables -five pairs which are called iambs). For instance, <em>"But I forbid thee one more heinous crime." </em>
  3. the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet. The first twelve lines in a sonnet are divided into three quatrains (each containing 4 lines), followed by a couplet (two lines written in the same rhyme and meter).
