Answer:
In line 7 of "This World", the phrase "bore into" means:
a) dig a hole in
Explanation:
"This World" is a poem by American author Mary Oliver in which the speaker shows admiration for everything around her. She says she would like to write about "a world that / has in it / nothing fancy," but that seems to be impossible. Every little detail is filled with wonder, with beauty.
<u>In line 7, the speaker says, "The ants bore into the peony bud and there is a / dark / pinprick well of sweetness." Although not very common, the verb "to bore" means "to dig or cut a hole". The speaker sees beauty even in the holes the ants cut open in the flowers.</u>

[...] What is Anne's perspective toward her family in this excerpt?
A. She feels fearful.
B. She feels confused.
C. She feels misunderstood.
D. She feels underestimated.
Answer:
In this excerpt, Anne's perspective toward her family is:
C. She feels misunderstood.
Explanation:
"The Diary of a Young Girl" is also known as "The Diary of Anne Frank". Written by Anne, who was hiding from the Nazis with her family, this journal has become the most famous memoir about the Holocaust. <u>In this particular excerpt, we see how Anne feels different from her family and, for that reason, misunderstood. She does not have the same emotional needs as they do or, at least, does not express them the same way. However, they cannot see or understand that, which makes Anne feel different, as if she does not fit in with them.</u>
Answer:
The line that includes paradox in 'Breakeven' is in line "Just prayed to a God that I don’t believe in" and in the poem by Edmund in "My Love is like to ice, and I to fire."
Explanation:
The paradox is a literary device that is used to create or present a contradiction between two ideas or thoughts or objects.
'Breakeven' is a song written by a rock band named The Script. The paradox that can be found in the lyrics is in the second line of the song which says that the speaker prayed to God in whom he did not believe. It is paradox because it is creating the contradictory thoughts of the speaker praying to someone whom he does not believe leads people to think of what the speaker must be praying about to God. Moreover, if he does not have faith in God than what is he hoping for from Him?
In Sonnet 30 of Edmund Spenser, the contradictory thoughts are revealed in the first line of the poem which says that the lover of the poet is like an ice and the speaker like a fire. Ice and fire are both contradictory, thus creating a paradox. This paradox has been discussed throughout the sonnet showing the difference between the feelings of the poet and his lover. The speaker says that his 'hot desires' could not melt his lover's 'cold heart.' The poem is talking about one sided-love of the speaker.
