"On what wings dare he aspire?" is figurative language which could be interpreted to mean something like this: What skills or means does he have to pursue his aspirations? 

"What the hand dare seize the fire?" is figurative language as well, I would need better context to be certain what this means, but my interpretation is this: What is he willing to sacrifice for his goals?

Considering this, the passage is definitely figurative. I mean, it's common sense. How often does someone have wings, or physically grab fire with bare hands? Not often. If it doesn't seem to be literal, it probably isn't. To put it simply, the answer is D. It is figurative; the passage contains words that alter the usual meaning.

The title The Most Dangerous Game plays on the word game. Write three to five sentences explaining the meanings of the word game
cricket20 [7]
A game is usually a competitive activity between two competing sides. It's a dangerous game because it's involving the attempt of a murder of Rainsford by Zaroff via hunting. It's also dangerous because of the environment in which they dwell and the other forces working towards his downfall such as Ivan and the dogs. While games are usually fun and enjoyable, the title of The Most Dangerous Game is ironic in that it's a life or death situation and a battle of wits, and it involves being chased or found like in tag or hide and seek.

Summarize: At the end of the story, where is each character going and why?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

At the end of the story, each character is going to the roof because the entire building was on fire.

Explanation:

"Uprising" is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The story is based on the true events of "The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire."

The novel has three main characters– Bella, Yetta, and Jane. When the building catches fire, in the novel, everyone rushes towards the stairs to reach the roof to escape the fire. Some try to use escalators and some stairs. But the fire was fierce enough to consume everyone. The novel had only one survivor– Bella.

Therefore, each character in the novel is rushing towards the roof to escape the fire.
