I think it is allusion because John isn’t really flying, but it puts a picture in your head of what he may be doing. None of the answers would make sense because:
personification is applying human qualities to an inhuman object. similes are comparisons using like or as. implied metaphors are comparisons that say something is something else that need to be implied.

Alja [10]

The powerful dictions from an excerpt that describes the mood and voice of the speaker are given below:

  • At first what I missed most were Los girasoles, my tall, unruly friends with their bright yellow petals and dark brown faces.
  • Each green blade stands upright like a tiny soldier.  

<h3>What is an annotation?</h3>

An annotation may be defined as a way of representing any comment or explanation in a more precise manner.

The complete question is as follows:

Quotes from the Text are as follows:

  • the lawns looked well behaved and boring. The grass grew obediently
  • each green blade standing upright like a tiny soldier.  
  • At first what I missed most were Los girasoles, my tall, unruly friends with their bright yellow petals and dark brown faces

Here, the mood of the speaker feels like missing and in a state of restriction.  That's why a speaker uses the word "missed" in the first part and "blade or tiny" in the second part of the answer.

The voice of the speaker remains the same throughout the passage and uses some unconscious words during the excerpt.

Therefore, it is well described above.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The sentence "Knox found that his warrior instinct had abandoned him" is an example of an indirect characterization.

Based on the author's characterization Henry Knox is a coward.

Explanation:

Henry Knox was the US secretary of war when the yellow fever plague struck, president George Washington put him in charge of the government and asked him to report to him regarding the spread of the disease.

However Henry Knox fled from the city after a few days in fear of the disease, and the author's slightly mocking tone suggests that his behavior was cowardly.

Indirect characterization is used to indicate what a character is like by describing their actions, appearance or speech. In describing the thoughts and actions of Henry Knox the author uses indirect characterization.
