Answer:
A - "in India . . . it was used as an offering in religious and magical ceremonies"
B - "the first written record of sugar"
Explanation:
From the passage, the details that would best fit in a summary of the passage would be options A and B because they contain the necessary details to sum up the entire passage.
From the passage, it is told that sugar was first recorded in India as being used as an offering in religious ceremonies.
It is explained in the passage that the ancient Sumerians first traded with the people of Harappa and Mohenjo in sugar but unfortunately the writings from that period are still not being able to be read.
I'd choose dark, inaccessible, and comfortless. The other words don't really pin down the tone ("draperies"? "General"?).
<em>The right answer is letter C - </em><em>that the speaker is able to see and feel her faith in eveything that surrounds her.</em>
<em>In this poem the poet explains why she stays at home during sabbath instead of going to church. She describes how the choir is replaced by a bobolink and a sexton, and that she doesn't need to go anywhere in particular as the "orchard" outside can be likened to church "dome". </em><em>Emily feels her faith is not bound to any place but rather it can be found in everything around her.</em>
The correct answers are
[<u>(b.) And in this flea our two bloods mingled be;]
</u>
<u>Thou know'st that this cannot be said</u>
and
[(d.) And pampered swells with one blood made of two;
And this, alas, is more than we would do.]
In this poem, the flea clearly symbolizes their love.
In the answer (b.), their bloods are mixed in this flea and this could metaphorically signify mixing their bodily fluids while engaging in intercourse.
In the answer (d.), it is clear that the speaker is denied intercourse with this woman and extends his argument from the sentence (b.) that their bloods mixed in the flee signify their physical union and that, despite what the society might suggest about her loss of virginity, there is nothing shameful about this act.
I think that that’s true, maybe.
