Answer:
Metaphor.
Explanation:
Metaphor is a figurative language that is used to compare two unlike things. Unlike similie, which uses words 'as' and 'like' to compare, metaphor compares implicitly.
The given sentence, "gadgets isolate us from the rest of the world" is an example of metaphor. The two things compared in this sentence is gadgets and isolate. Gadgets are compared to isolation. When someone is addicted to using gadgets, he/she separates herself/himself from the rest of the world.
Therefore, metaphor is the correct answer.
Answer:
In contrast to reading the scene, seeing the staged version of the scene would improve its aesthetic impact by allowing the audience to <em><u>watch the actors' reactions, thereby adding to the humor.</u></em>
Explanation:
Oscar Wilde's comedy play "The Importance of Being Ernest" revolves around the character of John Worthing and Algernon and the issue of class. The other themes in the play include marriage, social expectations, the ridiculousness or triviality of things deemed important, etc.
In the given excerpt from the play, we can see the scene where the two couples were 'showing affection' to their respective loves but then came Merriman and Lady Bracknell. It was then that the couples had to hurriedly stop their "public display of affection". And <em><u>in contrast to reading this scene, a staged or performed version would improve the aesthetic impact as it will allow the audience to see how the actors/ characters react, adding to the humor of the whole scene.</u></em>
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
