Answer: D) allusion.

Explanation: A simile is a comparison, we can see a clear example in the given sentence when the speaker compares the beat with a slackened drum: "The world beats dead Like a slackened drum." Hyperbole is an exaggeration, we can also see it in this phrase, because the speaker is exaggerating the consequences of going away from his loved one. Personification is giving human characteristics to a non-human object, an example on this phrase is "The world beats." So the figurative language which isn't in the sentence is allusion.

Read the following passage and then respond to the directions below.
charle [14.2K]

This argument illustrates the slippery slope fallacy as Leo Panchello was used to create a happy picture of how much hard work local business owners put in and then goes on to tell how the light rail would destroy the local business and ruin all of their hard work which brings a sad ending.

<h3>What is a fallacy?</h3>

This is known as a mistaken belief, a faulty or failed reasoning especially one based on unsound argument.

Hence, the fallacy makes the argument weak because there's no indication that a light rail would destroy a main local business in the town as when constructing a light rail, they do not tear up the street, instead, they make the light rail a part of the street

A slippery slope fallacy is a course of action that is rejected because there is little or no evidence that one insists to lead to a chain reaction resulting in an undesirable end.
