<span>A. Describing someone as a drone suggests an image of bees working in a hive.

I would say A, as it uses metaphorical language to influence the reader's interpretation of the scene, the other options are all direct meanings. </span>

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "Describing someone as a drone suggests an image of bees working in a hive".

Explanation:

A useful tool to improve the reading experience of a piece of writing is to use analogies that help the reader to understand complex concepts by using words that are familiar to them. An example of the use of an analogy to illustrate a concept is to describe someone as a drone to suggest that she or he is like a bee working in a hive. A reader in modern times is familiar with the concept of a drone, and the image of a bee working in a hive would be instantly come to most of the readers mind when someone is compared to a drone at work.

In which sentence does the underlined objective complement function as a noun? the band director thought jake wise for practicin

Brut [27]

The correct answer is C. T<span>he director appointed Cameron leader of his section.
In order to find the object complement (a word or phrase which completes an object), we first have to find the object. In sentence C, the object is Cameron (who did the director appoint? - Cameron). The phrase that completes the object and acts as its complement is leader of his section (What did he appoint Cameron as? - Leader of his section). As you can see, leader is a noun (as opposed to wise and stellar in sentences A and B which are adjectives), which means that C is correct.
