Which of the following best describes the function of “Time” in the following poem, Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare?
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;
Sometimes too hot, the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Read this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence.

“We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.”

Which of these inferences about the Roberts Report is best supported by the following passage (paragraphs 6-8)?

The Western Defense Commander, Lieutenant General John L. DeWitt, who was responsible for the security of the Pacific coast, was influential in spreading the idea that the Japanese might be disloyal. Following the loss of Manila he said, “I have little confidence that the Japanese enemy aliens [Issei] are loyal. I have no confidence in the loyalty of the Nisei whatsoever.”

DeWitt’s distrust appeared to be confirmed in the Roberts Report, a government investigation of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Issued at about the time Singapore fell to Japan in February, the report blamed the disaster on lack of military preparedness and on Japanese sabotage in Hawaii. It even suggested that Japanese farmers had planted their crops in the shape of arrows pointing to Pearl Harbor as the target.

Although the charge of Japanese sabotage on Hawaii was totally false, newspaper writers and radio broadcasters began warning of the danger of Japanese sabotage on the west coast. In Los Angeles, radio commentator John Hughes warned that “Ninety percent or more of American-born Japanese are primarily loyal to Japan.”
Answer choices for the above question

A. The report put into effect the initial roundup of Japanese Americans in Hawaii.

B. American leaders who learned of potential Japanese sabotage in the report did not take it seriously.

C. The Japanese Americans in Hawaii were significantly less loyal to the United States than those living on the west coast.

D. Accusations of Japanese sabotage may have been included to distract from the military’s failures.
