Personification is a figure of speech in which a thing, idea, abstract quality, nature, emotion, event, or inanimate object is given human characteristics or qualities, such as the ability to think, to speak and to write. This figure of speech is often employed to give readers different insights about something and to make the writing more vivid or memorable.

What human qualities are given to the thorns in this sentence?

The thorns are given the quality of intentionally grabbing something as if they had the ability to think and perform such action.

What does this example of personification literally mean?

It means that the thorns got stuck in the speaker's t-shirt and prevented her or him to pass or walk smoothly.

Vesna [10]

D - 'Like a house that a child might have constructed from cards' is the best option to indicate what the word 'ramshackle' means.

Ramshackle means something in severe disrepair (example: an old, rusty car is a ramshackle car or this house). A house that a child constructed from cards is also thought to be not sturdy and in need of repair when it comes down.

1. The letter below was written by Samuel Johnson in response to a woman who had asked him to obtain the archbishop of Canterbur
ddd [48]

The letter from Samuel Johnson shown above was made as a refusal to request a woman who would like to receive sponsorship from a bishop to send her son to university.

In the Letter, Johnson explains the reasons that led him to reject this request, stating that they cannot ask the bishop he does not know, sponsorship for a boy the bishop does not know. This is because this type of sponsorship was something very big, with great economic expense. Therefore, this was not offered to strangers, but only to people with whom the sponsors had knowledge and a certain intimacy.

In this letter, Johnson makes recurring use of ethos and logos. He uses ehos, when he shows that he is rejecting the request in the most ethical and respectable way possible, and, he uses logos, when he shows that the refusal is not being made for personal reasons, but for the logic of the situation.

Finally, Johnson says that he believes that the woman's son is a brilliant boy and that it is not necessary for him to go to university to be a great man.
