"Sentences" is the punning word in #1, for judges give out sentences. And teachers, as well. Get it? Sentences?
"Manor" is the punning word in #2. Get that? Castle? Home? Manor instead of manner? A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings.
Another example of a pun is:
The pigs were a squeal.
I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. And then it hit me.
Do you understand now? LOL. (: Hope this helps(:
The correct answer should be - the Byronic hero did not always consider himself innocent.
The Byronic hero is different from other Romantic heroes in that he is aware of his own flaws, as well as the flaws of those around him and the society itself. The Byronic hero is very pensive and indecisive about what he is supposed to do, always wanting to run away, but being unable to do so.
To inform the audience of what happened on July 15 is the correct answer
Answer: C. To reject or treat with disgust.
Explanation: denotation is the literal meaning of a word, the one that we can find in a dictionary, connotation is the meaning given by the context of the word, or also by the readers based on their emotions or personal experiences. In the given excerpt the connotation or meaning from the context of the word "spurn" is to reject or treat with disgust, we can infer that by noticing that the excerpt in general have a negative tone about fate, death and hope.
I think it's A. Allusion. By using allusion, you refer to other people, places, or things. Terza Rima is a rhyming scheme, I believe. contrapasso is a belief that the punishment should fit the sin. Anaphora is the act of replacing a word in a sentence to avoid repetition. So I believe that A. Allusion would be the right choice :)
