Read shakespeare's "sonnet 130.”

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.

which words and phrases in the sonnet indicate that the tone is satirical? select two options.

“my mistress”

“black wires”

“damask’d”

“reeks”

“false compare”

The two options to your question are ( "Black Wires") and ("Reeks"). Glad I could help.

Black Wires

Reeks

Explanation:

Instead of comparing her hair with something soft or pleasant, Shakespeare compares it to wires, creating an imagery of something dense and hard on the head of the woman. You can know for sure that it is satirical though when he uses the words "her reek" when talking about perfumes.

just add on too that

explanation:

each year on march 8, international women’s day is celebrated around the globe. it’s an important opportunity to shine a spotlight on women’s involvement, contributions, and accomplishments on a range of issues from domestic violence to the role of women in the c-suite. the theme this year is “be bold for change”― a dictum that those who know me personally will acknowledge has pretty much been my mantra throughout my career on wall street, in media and most recently, in philanthropy.the empowerment of girls as leaders, who can be emboldened today to become even stronger leaders tomorrow, is an increasingly recognized imperative in our world, and it couldn’t be closer to my heart

the correct answer is d. a discussion of specific uses of alliteration

.

when you are critiquing or evaluating a poem, you will mostly pay attention to the theme, as well as figures of speech and rhythm. alliteration is a figure of speech where consonants are repeated in neighboring words - and it is important for analysis of sound and rhythm, which is why it might appear in the evaluation of that poem.
