Answer: C. Simile.

Explanation: a simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" or "as." The given excerpt from "Don Quixote" includes a clear example of a simile, specifically in the phrase "and will keep this precept as carefully as Sunday" it is comparing the care he will put in the precept with the one he puts in Sunday.

What would be a benefit of reading this text rather than listening to an audio version of it?
olchik [2.2K]
The reader is able to re-read parts of a physical book to gain a better understanding of the context within the book. Another benefit would be the reader's choice to speed up or slow down his or her pace of reading.

Read the excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The words from the excerpt that best help the reader determine a tone of distress are:

B. "sob," "groped," and "dragging"

Explanation:

<u>Tone is conveyed through word choice, in literature. It helps readers understand what the narrator and/or other characters are feeling, or what the situation is supposed to inspire in readers. </u>The only way for the author to convey such sensations and emotions is by choosing words that are connected to them.

<u>In the passage we are analyzing here, the words "sob," "groped," and "dragging" convey distress. Distress means extreme anxiety or extreme sorrow, suffering, affliction. A person who is not feeling anxious, sad, or suffering is not likely to sob, to grope, or to drag.</u> Lighter words would be used to describe them. <u>Now, if people drag their feet and grope around while sobbing, we can sense they are distressed.</u>
