Here are the lines:  Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date

Answer:

to express love by likening a loved one to a nice day

Explanation:

Comparisons are most times used in literature to help people have better visualization and appreciation of a subject being discussed by a speaker. In these lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 18, he likens his loved one to a summer's day. Just as a summer day was bright and temperate, so was his lover lovely and gentle. He also likens his lover to a beautiful bud that remained unshaken despite the unfavorable winds.

In a small military compound in Nevada, two soldiers plot
kogti [31]

Answer:

OD. The tank was developed illegally.

Explanation:

The outcome of any story depends on the circumstances that lead up to the crucial stages of the plot. And these outcomes mainly consists of the consequences or results of all the different directions or aspects of the plot.

In the given scenario of the two soldiers and their plan to try to steal the 'secretly developed' illegal high-tech tank, the <u>most important aspect of the story in determining the outcome is that the tank was illegally developed</u>. This is because, no matter who tried to steal it or what the purpose of the stealing was, the fact that it was developed illegally will eventually be the crucial aspect of how the outcome will be, considering neither the government nor anyone knows about it (except the two soldiers and the engineer and the ones on the base camp).

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
