The correct answer is: C: The sentence has a compound subject. Subject in sentence is<span> the person or thing about whom the statement is made. Every verb in sentence must have at least one subject. But that doesn't mean that it is the only possibility: namely, the verb can have more than one subject, too. In such cases, we can say that a sentence has a compound subject. In this sentence: "Conrad and his sister will sing a duet in the concert.", compound subject is: "Conrad and his sister", since the statement is about the both of them.</span>
<span>in his “letter from birmingham city jail,” dr. king uses the phrase i don’t believe . . . twice. which rhetorical device is he using?
The rhetorical device he is using is PALILLOGY.
Palillogy is the repetition of a phrase or word.</span>
Idiom-a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words. (Ex. A piece of cake)
Onomatopoeia-the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named (Ex. Boom or crack)
Hyperbole-exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally. (Ex.This guy escapes more times than Houdini)
I would say that this sentence is an hyperbole. This is because an idiom would be a form of figurative meaning that if different from the literal meaning. This is statement is bluntly advertised. There is no hidden meaning behind it. The word doesn’t resemble a sound either so it cannot be an onomatopoeia. I hope this helps
