Read Shakespeare's "Sonnet 130."
What evidence supports the serious nature of the
sonnet? Select two options.
Albel
"My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
'If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head."
"I have seen roses damask d, red and white
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun,
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun,
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks,
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go,-
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
"I love to hear her speak
"And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare
Answer:
"I love to hear her speak ''"And yet by heaven, I think my love as rareExplanation:
The speaker in this sonnet acknowledges that his mistress does not have heavenly qualities that make her overly attractive but he still has a rare love for her that enables him to love hearing her speak even though music has a more pleasing sound.
This shows that the sonnet is of a serious tone with the speaker truly loving his mistress regardless of qualities that she possesses which he does not believe are attractive.

Question 1: ‘The Necklace’ by Guy de Maupassant
What does this passage reveal about the different characters? Support your answer with evidence from this passage.
‘The Necklace’ by Guy de Maupassant
She had no dresses, no jewels, nothing; and these were the only things she loved. She felt she was made for them alone. She wanted so much to charm, to be envied, to be desired and sought after.
She had a rich friend, a former schoolmate at the convent, whom she no longer wanted to visit because she suffered so much when she came home. For whole days afterwards she would weep with sorrow, regret, despair and misery.
One evening her husband came home with an air of triumph, holding a large envelope in his hand.
"Look," he said, "here's something for you."
She tore open the paper and drew out a card, on which was printed the words:
"The Minister of Education and Mme. Georges Rampouneau request the pleasure of M. and Mme. Loisel's company at the Ministry, on the evening of Monday January 18th."
Instead of being delighted, as her husband had hoped, she threw the invitation on the table resentfully, and muttered:
"What do you want me to do with that?"
"But, my dear, I thought you would be pleased. You never go out, and it will be such a lovely occasion! I had awful trouble getting it. Everyone wants to go; it is very exclusive, and they're not giving many invitations to clerks. The whole ministry will be there."
She stared at him angrily, and said, impatiently:
"And what do you expect me to wear if I go?"
He hadn't thought of that. He stammered:
"Why, the dress you go to the theatre in. It seems very nice to me ..."
He stopped, stunned, distressed to see his wife crying. Two large tears ran slowly from the corners of her eyes towards the corners of her mouth. He stuttered:
"What's the matter? What's the matter?"
With great effort she overcame her grief and replied in a calm voice, as she wiped her wet cheeks:
"Nothing. Only I have no dress and so I can't go to this party. Give your invitation to a friend whose wife has better clothes than I do."
He was distraught, but tried again:
"Let's see, Mathilde. How much would a suitable dress cost, one which you could use again on other occasions, something very simple?"

O Laura Bridgman had dressed the doll that Miss
Sullivan gave to Helen.
O After Helen played with her doll, Miss Sullivan
spelled the word "d-o-1-1" into Helen's hand.
O Helen copied Miss Sullivan and made the letters for
doll with her hand,
The morning after my teacher came she led me into her
room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the
Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had
dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When
I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly
spelled into my hand the word "d-0-1-1." I was at once
interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When
I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was
flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running
downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made
the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a
word or even that words existed; I was simply making
my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that
followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way
a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a
few verbs like sit, stand and walk. But my teacher had
been with me several weeks before I understood that
everything has a name.
O Helen learned to spell many words with her fingers
but she did not understand their meaning.

I Know Why the Cage Bird Sings
What do you think the author feels about their childhood?
In I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, author Maya Angelou’s purpose is to tell about her childhood, while her viewpoint shows how she thinks and feels about her childhood. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is a 1969 autobiography recounting the early years of American writer and poet Maya Angelou.
It is clear that this title had great significance to Angelou, as it was the title of her entire life story. In her autobiography, she talked about the struggle of being a black author and poet. She often felt that her words were not heard because of the color of her skin. She felt that in some ways, she was still experiencing slavery. Although African American people were free people in Angelou’s time, there were still many restrictions on them in society, making it so that many black Americans did not feel free at all.

And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,

Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.

Answer:
C
Explanation:
It causes the narrator to consider what could happen to him if he doesn't leave the reservation.
Answer:
The effect of Mary's death on the narrator is that C. It leads to the narrator having a stronger ...
Explanation:
This change in attitude towards the mother became necessary when Mary died. Her death brought the narrator to the realization that life is not permanent. It is ephemeral and can end anytime.
There is no time for procrastination. It is better to enjoy the love of your family now, developing stronger relationships with each other, than to wait until all things are right.
In this moving and emotion-filled memoir, "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me " by Sherman Alexie, the experience from the death of Mary taught the narrator that all things cannot be right. Death removes the complications of life.
Thus, Mary's death led the narrator to develop a stronger relationship with his mother than when Mary was still alive.
