The best paraphrase of line 12 is "like everyone,she walks on the ground"

Throughout the sonnet the speaker is portraying his beloved as someone ordinary. He highlights the common characteristics and beauty of his lover using the conventional comparisons of the Shakespeare's days  for love poetry but in a negative way.

The love poetry of the those days was mainly based on metaphors comparing nature with the beauty of the loved women. In this sonnet Shakespeare reversed those conventions.

In line 12 and in the previous one the speaker states that he has never seen a goddess walking but he's sure that her mistress walks like everyone else.

Which sentences most likely belong in the resolution paragraph of a narrative? Select two options. Before I could even explain,
jeka57 [31]

Answers:

  • "I can replace the window," he said, putting his arm around my shoulders, "but I can't replace you."
  • The audience stood up, cheering wildly, and I've never felt so relieved in my life.

The resolution paragraph of a narrative is the section in which the main conflict of the story is resolved. In the first section, the character appears to be having an epiphany. An epiphany is a sudden realization, most often triggered by a new event or piece of information. Epiphanies are often found towards the end of narratives.

In the second example, the character's conflict is the anxiety regarding the reaction of the audience. As the audience stands up and cheers, the conflict is resolved. This is why the character feels "relieved."

"The Passing" was likely written for which audience?
salantis [7]

Answer: Young boys and girls in middle or high school

Explanation:

''The Passing'' is a 2016 movie and it is following one car crash accident.

Since the story of ''The Passing'' isn't for kids I would say that the correct answer is that is written for a little bit older audience, boys and girls in the middle or in a high school.

  • I would say that this is the right answer because Stanley(one of the characters) is showing a voyeuristic fascination because of one couple. Besides this situation, there are more situation between woman and man relationships which older audience can understand better.

At the end of the story, one of the characters ends up falling down which is also not a situation for children.
