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 :))

In paragraph 33, what is the reason the author gives to be comforted?
Orlov [11]

Philip Yancey believes the reason to be comforted after God allows man one hour of suffering in an entire lifetime of good feeling, is the fact that life on Earth lasts just for a short time in comparison with the wonderful future God has for man in heaven, living in eternity.
