The Sonnet use rhyme scheme of abab, cdcd, efef,gg. It is believed Shakespeare addressed this sonnet to a younger lover. I believe the theme is We love something we know is going to be gone soon more than we love it in  it's peak. It's the perceptive of someone that love something that he's sure gonna be eventually gone/ taken away form him.

Shakespeare mainly uses metaphors and we can observe it at the end of each stanza. In the first stanza of the sonnet Shakespeare compares his aging to autumn with yellow leaves, loosely hanging from the tree. Then, in the next stanza he equates the night to death with the comparison of his life to twilight of the day. In the third stanza, Shakespeare shows how his energy is dying out in a death-bed.

In the final couplet of the sonnet, Shakespeare writes that:

<em>This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong,  </em>

<em>To love that well which thou must leave ere long. </em>

Shakespeare shows that his lover will continue loving him although he is growing older and fading away slowly.

A famous singer recently came to give a talk to the students at your school about her life and work. Your head teacher has asked
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no further specific references, we can comment on the following.

This is my report.

It is always interesting to know more details about the life of famous people. In this case, this female singer that gave a lecture about the life of a musician was interesting, although she talked in general terms. I think it would have been more interesting if she could have talked about the details of the music business for new musicians or the way she had to overcome adversities to become a popular artist.

I say this because there are many texts and references on the internet about the music business. However, there is such little information about the specifics, the details. And popular artists like her could be able to share good information with students about the details of the music business.

My suggestion is that we could invite these famous people but we should ask them to center their speech on specific issues so the talk could be useful. If they talk about general issues or about their lives, many books and pages already include their bios and general information.

We, as students, need more focused topics, that only listen to general information or the artist's public life that is already known.

How does Edna’s character illustrate the theme that society pressures women to fill specific roles? Use examples and evidence fr
Y_Kistochka [10]
 Edna Pontellier was a controversial character. She upset many nineteenth century expectations for women and their supposed roles. One of her most shocking actions was her denial of her role as a mother and wife. Kate Chopin displays this rejection gradually, but the concept of motherhood is major theme throughout the novel.
Edna is fighting against the societal and natural structures of motherhood that force her to be defined by her title as wife of Leonce Pontellier and mother of Raoul and Etienne Pontellier, instead of being her own, self-defined individual. Through Chopin’s focus on two other female characters, Adele Ratignolle and Mademoiselle Reisz, Edna’s options of life paths are exhibited.
These women are the examples that the men around Edna contrast her with and from whom they obtain their expectations for her. Edna, however, finds both role models lacking and begins to see that the life of freedom and individuality that she wants goes against both society and nature. The inevitability of her fate as a male-defined creature brings her to a state of despair, and she frees herself the only way she can, through suicide.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

He saw the dead black eyes of the general on him, studying him.

General Zaroff's face suddenly brightened.

Explanation:

Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game" revolves around the theme of the relationship between the hunter and the prey. Through the characters of the story, Connell gives a twist in the hunter-hunted domain, making the protagonist experience the life of a hunted.

Colonel Zaroff was the owner of the "Ship Trap" island where men are hunted for sport. When Rainsford Sanger got stuck in the island and was hosted initially by the Colonel, he was treated kindly, provided with food and also gave him information about the island and even the game. The next day, when Sanger refused to join him in the hunt and told him he wanted to leave, that was when COlonel Zaroff decided to make him his new prey. The two sentences that show the decision of the colonel in making Sanger his new game are

"He saw the dead black eyes of the general on him, studying him.

General Zaroff's face suddenly brightened."
