<u>Answer:</u>

The answer is option ‘A’.  The sentence 'be careful not to wake the sleeping baby' has a participle in it.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the participle phrase 'sleeping baby’, 'sleeping' is the participle formed from the verb ‘sleep’ and acting as an adjective describing the baby.  A participle is a word formed from a verb and acts as an adjective.

There are three kinds of participle:

Present participle formed by adding –ing to the verb.  For example, the laughing girl , smiling child, etc,

Past participle is formed by adding –ed , -en , -d , -t or  -n. It is third form of the verb.  For example, colored castle, Sunken face, etc,

Perfect participles are formed by joining ‘having’ with ‘past participle’.  For example, having said , having stated, etc,

Reread Act IV, Scene 5 from lines 13 to 60. How does Shakespeare use figurative language to convey the grief felt by the Capulet
ziro4ka [17]
Figurative language in this section helps convey the grief of the Capulets by making their lamenting more personal and poetic. Specifically, using personification to represent death as a person helps the reader really feel like Juliet has been actively taken away from them rather than her just having died. For example, when Capulet says "Death, that hath ta'en her hence to make me wail, / Ties up my tongue, and will not let me speak." This is making Death the active enemy, giving them someone to blame. This section also uses a lot of simile, including when Capulet says "Death lies on her like an untimely frost / Upon the sweetest flower of all the field." This makes her death feel peaceful, looking at Juliet as a sweet flower with just a hint of frost over her. Finally, Capulet also uses anaphora to reinforce the personification of Death and the poetry of Juliet's passing. He says "<span>Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir;", repeating Death at the beginning of each phrase.</span>
