Explanation:

What does William Wordsworth mean by \"inward eye\" in the following bolded line?I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in a sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
(They flash upon that inward eye)
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

A.) this poem
B.) Wordsworth's mind

D.) someone's story

Which sentence uses a verb that agrees with its compound subject? a. Devon or Cara were hungry.
b. Neither Felicity nor Francine have ever baked lasagna.
c. The lion tamer or the sword swallower are the most amazing act in the circus.
d. Either the leather jacket or the winter coat looks warm enough.

Answers

The correct answer is D, "Either the leather jacket or the winter coat looks warm enough". According to the subject-verb agreement, the verb in an either/or or neither/nor sentence should agree with the noun or pronoun closest. So in this case, the winter coat is closest and is singular therefore the verb should also be singular as presented by the verb "looks".
