Explanation:
Answer:
The type of figurative language used in the passage is: imagery.
Explanation:
<u>Imagery is a literary device that uses language to appeal to the five senses (sight, taste, touch, smell and hearing). By using imagery, authors involve readers and help them, in their imagination, to see, hear, touch, smell or taste what is being described.</u> In the particular passage we are analyzing here, the author is using imagery when describing the shadow thrown by the bank. <u>By using "a narrow shelf of shadow," the author has us imagining it in a vivid manner, as if we are the character seeing that shadow.</u>
The verbal irony here is “my windows commanded an unobstructed view of a lofty brick wall”
This use of irony tells the reader that there was a perfect view of a brick wall from the windows
Pattern A (add 5)
First term is 1 so, add 5 to 1, for the 2nd term, keeping adding 5 to the values you find from previous
1 + 5 = 6
6 + 5 = 11
11 + 5 = 16
16 + 5 = 21
1, 6, 11, 16, 21
Pattern B ( minus 4)
First term is 28, so minus 4 to get a value, now take 4 from the value & so on...
28 - 4 = 24
24 - 4 = 20
20 - 4 = 16
16 - 4 = 12
28, 24, 20, 16, 12
Hope this helps!
