When does Auden feel that suffering usually takes place

Answers

Suffering usually takes place when the people least expect it.

“About the suffering they were never wrong, the old masters: how well they understood its human position; how it takes place while someone else is eating or opening a window or just walking dully along.”

In the excerpt of the poem Musee des Beaux Arts, W.H. Auden expresses that suffering happens while others are just going about their usual, normal day—apathetic and not expecting it to happen. The poem painted the people indifferent to the suffering of others and just continued on with their daily routine.

Which sentence contains a faulty parallel structure? I am eager to visit Phoenix and to meet Rachel. I look forward to visiting Phoenix and to meet Rachel. I look forward to visiting Phoenix and meeting Rachel. I am excited about my visit to Phoenix and my meeting with Rachel.

Answers

A parallel structure means that the same form of the word is used in each part of the sentence. So the correct answer is 'I look forward to visiting Phoenix and to meet Rachel'. For this sentence to be correct, it would need to say 'I look forward to visiting Phoenix and meeting Rachel'. 

The first sentence because it does not combine I and Am together.

What theme is portrayed in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich?In reality it was just what is usually seen in the houses of people of moderate means who want to appear rich, and therefore succeed only in resembling others like themselves: there are damasks, dark wood, plants, rugs, and dull and polished bronzes—all the things people of a certain class have in order to resemble other people of that class.
