Answer:
The excerpt from:
- "Annabel Lee" is written in a sestet
- "In Memorium" is written in a quatrain
- "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is written in an octave
- "Hero and Leander" is written in couplets
Explanation:
A sestet is a stanza composed of six lines, a quatrain of four lines, an octave is written in eight lines, and a couplet is a set of two rhyming lines, usually written in the same meter.
It is important to note that the definitions of all these types of stanzas have varied with different works and origins and some can further be classified into various sub-types depending on their position in the poem, meter, use, etc., and can be further elaborated with typical rhyme schemes that they use; however, the common aspect that they share is the number of lines, which is what the question is based on.

<em>When an author makes a </em><u><em>claim</em></u><em>, (s)he is stating something which might or might not be true. It must be argued. Example: Mary wrote, "I am the best musician in the school."</em>

A claim is an assertion an author or speaker makes to tell something is true but without providing evidence or proof about it, so other people might not believe it because it may be false.
Answer:
The correct option described second is <em>"The tone is the same, but the word choice is less formal, probably for a younger reading audience."</em>
Explanation:
Replacing <em>"of the Victorian era"</em> with <em>"during a period of time known as the Victorian era" </em>shows less formality and a bit more explanation for younger readers.
Also <em>"distinguished" </em>is replaced with <em>"respected"</em> which is less formal and easier to be understood by younger readers.
The replacement of <em>"Her poetry influenced ..... and Emily Dickinson"</em> in first version with this long sentence <em>"Her poetry was very ............. by Ms. Browning"</em> in second version reduces formality to make it easier to understand for younger audience.
