Answer: In the context of a Shakespearean sonnet, a couplet represents <u>the final two lines (A)</u>.
Explanation:
In poetry, a couplet is a pair of lines that typically rhyme and have the same length. Sometimes, poets write the whole poem in couplet form. However, Shakespeare often used rhyming couplets at the end of his sonnets, to make the ending more effective. One such example is a couplet from his Sonnet 81:
"You still shall live, such virtue hath my pen,
<em>Where breath most breathes, even in the mouths of men."</em>
This is a participle. It cannot be a gerund, because gerunds have a nominal or adjectival meaning (for example, Swimming is fun - swimming would be a gerund). The -ing form itself is not a 'verb phrase', but 'sneezing uncontrollably' is. So if we are looking only at 'sneezing', the answer is 'participle'.
Im pretty sure it’s the “shabby and faded black box option” because that’s what I chose when I had this test. The box being faded insinuates the idea that it’s been used for a long time.
<h3>Third person bias is not a type of point of view.</h3>
