Read this excerpt from “The Most Dangerous Game” and answer the question. His eyes made out the shadowy outlines of a palatial c

hateau; it was set on a high bluff, and on three sides of it cliffs dived down to where the sea licked greedy lips in the shadows. In about one hundred words, explain the figurative language in the italicized section of the passage above. What type of figurative language is it? In what ways does it function?

This excerpt is using personification. Personification is giving human traits or characteristics to something that is non human. The sea does not actually have lips but the author writes "the sea licked its greedy lips..".

Read the sentence. If you start to feel hungry, fix yourself a snack.
Darya [45]

Answer:

complex sentence.

Explanation:

Complex sentences are made of at least one independent clause and one dependent clause.

An independent clause contains one idea, is composed of a subject and a verb and can stand alone. In this case the independent clause is "fix yourself a snack".

A dependent clause is not a complete clause and has to be attached to an independent clause to become complete. In this case the dependent clause is "If you start to feel hungry".

Note that if the clause begins with the dependent clause a coma should follow but if the clause begins with the independent clause there should be no coma separating both clauses.
