Which type of figurative language is used in this sentence from George Orwell’s novel Keep the Aspidistra Flying?

English

slavikrds [6]3 years ago

The figurative language used is a metaphor. A flashback refers to a previous event and there's no indication of Orwell referring to any previous events in this sentence. An oxymoron is when contradictory words are used in a conjunction such as faith unfaithful kept him falsely true. The word usage in this sentence isn't contradictory as it flows well in this sentence. A euphemism is a nice way to say a bothering statement. The sentence isn't any sort of bad claim, so the option of a euphemism is out of the question. A metaphor compares two things without using the words "like" or "as". In this sentence, Orwell compares advertising to the rattling of a stick inside of a swill-bucket. This makes metaphor the correct answer. Hope this helped :))

Why did McCarthy target the Hollywood Film industry?
bonufazy [111]
I don’t know if this is true? Or falsev or I don’t know ⬇️

Since everyone was scared of communism, Hollywood started making blacklists of people who weren't allowed to participate in movie making because it was feared that they would use the movies as a medium for spreading their ideological beliefs.

Blacklisting in Hollywood happened in the late 1930's but wasn't until 1947 that hearings were held to investigate Communism in Hollywood. Yes McCarthyism and blacklisting in Hollywood could happen again.
