Answer:

"Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,"

Explanation:

This makes the tone gloomy because it informs the reader(s) that Poe is weak and weary. When someone is upset or gloomy they are tired, week, weary because they don't want to do anything. So this line would help create gloomy tone of the poem.

Effect of hiv/aids on government​
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

AIDS is a communicable disease that causes the destruction of the immune system and when left untreated can cause death. The AIDS epidemic began in the 1980s and caused millions of deaths around the world, especially in the 1980s and 1990s, when there was no effective mechanism to combat AIDS. That has changed in this century, as there are now effective treatments that can prolong the life of a seropositive for the average normal period of the population. However, around the world many people still die from not having adequate access to treatment. Finally, it is noteworthy that the HIV-positive community suffers a lot of prejudice and discrimination, which must be combated through awareness campaigns.

Answer:

B. to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion.

Explanation:

The lines present in the question were taken from Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. <u>The two lines at the end, or the final couplet, are structured in a different way from the others because their purpose is to lend impact to the sonnet's conclusion. Throughout the poem, the speaker is "criticizing" the woman he loves. </u>While Petrarchan sonnets were usually used to elevate women to an impossible status, comparing them to natural elements and concluding that they were always more beautiful, Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 does the opposite. The woman is a normal one, not more beautiful, sweeter, nor better smelling than anything else. <u>Still, at the final couplet, after all that criticism, the speaker says he loves her. Not only does he love her, but he won't lie about her. He loves her for who she really is.</u>
