Answer:

  1. PART A: B. frantic despair
  2. PART B: B. "She was buried! Buried! She! In that hole!" and C. "I stopped short in front of that looking glass in which she had so often been reflected." (Paragraph 9)

Explanation:

The question is from <em>Was it a Dream?</em> by Guy de Maupassant. The entire story is focused on a man's suffering and grief over the death of his beloved. <u>Throughout the story, he is seen remembering her and the time he spent with her. He is in a constant state of grief, hopelessness and despair. He feels lost, shocked and confused about his beloved's untimely death. </u>He expresses his confusion over her death in the words,<em> </em><em>"And then she died. How? I do not know; I no longer know anything."</em>

In the sentence,<em> "I stopped short in front of that looking glass in which she had so often been reflected." </em>the main character describes what he feels when he looks into a mirror his beloved used.<em> </em>He describes it as an empty, lifeless piece of glass that held her in entirety,<em> "Oh! The recollection! Sorrowful mirror, burning mirror, horrible mirror, to make men suffer such torments!</em>

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Society and Class is one of the themes of Don Quixote.

Explanation:

There are many themes in the "Don Quixote" by "Miguel de Cervantes" like Social and class, madness, loyalty, race, madness, morality.

Cervantes's novel shows the difference between the class of a person and his worth. In Don Quixote, Cervantes argues the traditional thinking that if a person is an aristocrat, he is respectable and noble. But Duke and Duches are frivolous and unkind though they are aristocrats in the story. On the other hand, though Sancho has low social status and is a farmer, he is wise and thoughtful.  

In Don Quixote, two people who love each other are asked to live apart  apart because of their social class and Cervantes also suggests that quality of a person is more important than his social class.

In this excerpt from Sonnet 29 by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, which lines express intimacy?
GarryVolchara [31]
<span>The answer is most likely the initial passage, "my thoughts do twine and bud About thee, as wild vines, about a tree." This is a simile comparing her thoughts constantly thinking about another person and all the possibilities of being with this person to a vine wrapping itself endlessly around a tree.</span>

Which details best reveal the setting of the passage? Select two options. "By the waters of Babylon"
Serggg [28]

Answer:

1. "It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know."

2. "Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods."

Explanation:

Background or setting is the time and place of a tale, whether it be reality or fiction. As a literary element, it's a must. The location establishes the story's major backdrop and tone.

Passage:

It is not true what some of the tales say, that the ground there burns forever, for I have been there. Here and there were the marks and stains of the Great Burning, on the ruins, that is true. But they were old marks and old stains. It is not true either, what some of our priests say, that it is an island covered with fogs and enchantments. It is not. It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know. Everywhere in it there are god-roads, though most are cracked and broken. Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods.
