The futurists were inspired by cubism
and glorified speed. Umberto Boccioni's Unique Forms of Continuity in
space is an example of futurism.
To add, futurists<span> or futurologists are scientists and social scientists
whose specialty is futurology or the attempt to systematically explore
predictions and possibilities about the future and how they can emerge from the
present, whether that of human society in particular or of life on Earth in
general.</span>
Answer:
Aphorism
Explanation:
Anagram is a word, phrase, or name formed by rearranging the letters of another. I don't think this is it because they is no words that were rearranged.
Aphorism is a pithy observation that contains a general truth. This could be true!
Analogy is a comparison between two things. This is not it because there are not two things being compared.
Allusion is an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly; an indirect or passing reference. This is not it because this sentence is explicit meaning it is very straight foward.
Out of all four of those... I would go with Aphorism.
Answer:
The man was about to be hanged.
Explanation:
Ambrose Bierce's short story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" tells the story of how a convicted man was about to be hanged on the railroad bridge. The man, Peyton Farquhar, was a plantation farmer who was accused of trying to burn down the bridge during the Civil War.
The lines/ excerpt given in the question is from the first paragraph of the story which shows Peyton waiting for his death. The author/ speaker of the story is describing the scene and setting of the story, the exact point where we see Peyton (yet unnamed) waiting for the rope to be pulled which will finalize his death.
Parallelism is the use
of the components in a sentence that are the same grammatically or similar in
construction, sound or meaning. It is used as a literary device in may works.
Examples are "James ran into the garden, into the room and into our
hearts.", "Like father, like son.", and "Easy come, easy
go." The correct answer is D. <span>In class we learned about triangles and about the right way to measure their angles.</span>
