Answer:

“I’d run my experiments over and over and over — just like an athlete operates.”

The farmers in training hung on every word.

“There’s a spirit in how he says things; you want to be part of his community.”

Explanation:

Figurative language is language that employs figures of speech. These includes devices such as metaphors, similes, personification, and hyperboles. Figurative language can make descriptions more vivid and interesting. In the first example, the author compares himself to an athlete. In the second and third ones, he employs a figure of speech. All of these are examples of figurative language.

Both Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson were influenced by the Romantics. Choose one of the two poets. Provide at least three ways
brilliants [131]

Academically, cutting it very broad technically, these two geniuses might  

be classed as `Romantics` but they are not typical of The Romantics.  

You might find, yes, the first answers` suggestions -   Keats, Wordsworth, some of Elisabeth Barrett Browning, Christina Rossetti  having more the flavour and adornment and/ in rhyme more typical than  either Dickinson or Whitman whose deep works reflected more the cultural, than The Romantic zeitgeist.  Dickinson, melancholically, Whitman more exuberantly...  Though if tyou like them, or one, you will enjoy the task more :)   and be more exacting I imagine.

Which of these is a true statement about travel during Douglass’s youth? 1. Enslaved persons had few opportunities to travel and
djyliett [7]

Answer: 1. Enslaved persons had few opportunities to travel and few experiences beyond their plantations.

Explanation:

From the <em>Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass</em> written by the famous anti-abolishionist himself, it is shown that people who were enslaved had very few opportunities to travel and few experiences beyond their plantations.

This was because their owners lived in constant worry that the slaves would escape from them were they given such opportunities so they limited their interactions with the outside world so they wouldn't even dream of it. Indeed there were many liberties denied the slaves so that they could be kept in bondage.

Apart from limiting their right to travel, the slave owners refused slaves the opportunity to be literate with Fredrick Douglas talking about a time when a class he had been teaching was permanently disbanded when the owners came with various weapons to stop the class.
