The rhetorical device that <span>is used in this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The Danger of Lying in Bed" is anecdote (assuming that your options are allusion, rhetorical question, anecdote, and logic). 
There is no allusion to any other text here, so that is not the correct answer. There are also no rhetorical questions - questions that don't need an answer because it is implied. I guess there is logic, but it is not a rhetorical device really. So, I'd choose anecdote, because an anecdote is a short, interesting story from someone's life, as is the case here.</span>

PRESENT RESERVE - Do these words
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

3. mean neither the same nor opposite.

Explanation:

To be "present" describes the action of existing or occurring in a particular moment. It also refers to a time period that is occurring at the moment of speaking (such as, "present tense"). On the other hand, "reserve" refers to preserving something for future use, or to having a quantity of something that is not used yet, but is saved for the future. Therefore, these two words do not mean either the same or the opposite.
