Answer:
The answer is contrast (Option D)
Explanation:
Contrast is the act of comparing two things or two people in order to show or determine the differences between them. In other words, contrast is the difference between two things or two people when they are compared.
"Contrast" is very different from "compare." As such, both words should not be used interchangeably because compare simply means to show or determine similarity while contrast serves the purpose of obtaining difference.
Answer and explanation:
First, we have the word Athens. Then, we get to know that Athenian is a person from Athens. The final -s has been removed in Athens, and -ian was added. We can assume that -ian is the suffix, therefore. This suffix most likely indicates origin, a person's place of birth. Other words that use the same suffix and that indicate the origin of someone are: Parisian (Paris), Brazilian (Brazil), Italian (Italy), Argentinian (Argentine), among others.
An epic simile is basically a regular simile, but it takes place over the course of several lines in poetry. There is no evidence in the excerpt provided that the correct answer could be a simile, so we’ll rule that option out.
The phrase starting in medias generally means that it’s a somewhat introduction. It can often introduce the story in the beginning, or be a great start if you want to start your story with a flashback. I’d say this is a good answer for the question, but just in case there’s a better one let’s go over the other options as well.
To invoke the muse would be to get inspiration for whatever it is you’re going to start doing. For example, let’s say you’re writing a story, and you have no ‘muse.’ Here you’d ‘pray to the muse gods’ to give you muse, or in another word, inspiration. This is clearly not the answer because the passage is not invoking any muse. They clearly already know which direction they’re taking with the story.
And finally, the use of epithets would be to specifically describing something and/ or someone. Sure, this passage caries descriptive detail, but that’s not its primary focus.
In conclusion, the correct answer to this question is b ) starting in medias res
