Stubborn means to have determination to not change one's attitude or position on something. A good time to be stubborn is when something compromises your morals.
"Neither as a boy nor as a man was he a toady, but from early youth was by nature attracted to people of high station as a fly is drawn to the light, assimilating their ways and views of life and establishing friendly relations with them. " <em>Leo Tolstoy's The Death Of Ivan Ilyich </em>
To me this seems like the answer, because it says that from early youth he had always admired those of a higher society. I am not an expert but this sentence kind of stuck out to me.
D) Verb: has been raining Mood: indicative
The entire verb phrase is "has been raining". "Has" and "been" are both helping verbs that create the present progressive tense. This tense is used to show something that is happening and has been happening for a period of time. The indicative mood is correct because the indicative mood indicates something that fact. Interrogative mood is question form. Conditional form is based on something else happening.
In the poem, Byron writes that daylight is "gaudy."
He does this to prove that daylight is overly bright and showy. His love is not like daylight -- she is not bright and showy.
That's why she walks like the night -- she does not need to flaunt her beauty. Her beauty is natural.
