Read the passage from "on seeing the elgin marbles." so do these wonders a most dizzy pain, that mingles grecian grandeur with the rude wasting of old timeā€”with a billowy mainā€” a sunā€”a shadow of a magnitude. now, read the passage from "ozymandias," another poem from the romantic period. and on the pedestal these words appear: "my name is ozymandias, king of kings: look on my works, ye mighty, and despair! " nothing beside remains. round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away. how do the passages' themes compare? both passages have the theme "time erases everything." "elgin marbles" has the theme "art outlasts even death," while "ozymandias" has the theme "death comes to everything." both passages have the theme "nature is cruel." "elgin marbles" has the theme "decay is inevitable," while "ozymandias" has the theme "fame survives death."

Read the excerpt from "mother tongue." lately, iā€™ve been giving more thought to the kind of english my mother speaks. like others, i have described it to people as ā€œbrokenā€ or ā€œfracturedā€ english. but i wince when i say that. it has always bothered me that i can think of no other way to describe it other than ā€œbroken,ā€ as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness and soundness. what best supports the inference that tan believes nonstandard english is no less valid than standard english? tan spends a lot of time thinking about her motherā€™s ā€œfracturedā€ english. tan has trouble thinking of descriptive words when she is writing. tanā€™s american education makes it difficult for her to understand her mother. tan winces when she describes her motherā€™s english as ā€œbroken.ā€
