English
1 answer:
Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
3 0

You need reason and rationalism in everyday life. Say there is someone trying to sale you something illegal, you have to use reasoning and rationalism to decided if you buy the illegal item or not.

Politicians also have to use reasoning and rationalism when they are making laws or when they are deciding on things that could possibly help or hurt the U.S.

Over-all reason and rationalism, is a everyday thing that must be used in order to make good or correct decisions whether it effects just you or other people.

Hope this helps you out a little!

Match the description to the word. 1. attributing human characteristics to inanimate objects hyperbole 2. blatant exaggeration s
masha68 [24]
The correct matching are as follows:
1. PERSONIFICATION: Attributing human characteristics to inanimate objects.
Personification is a part of speech which attribute personal nature to a non human object. It may also represents an abstract quality in human form. Personification is usually used in sentences in order to present situations more vividly so that others can understand clearly. Here is an example of personification: My alarm clock usually spring to life at exactly five o'clock every morning. In this sentence, 'spring to life' is a human characteristic, but in this sentence it is been attributed to an alarm clock.
2. HYPERBOLE: Blatant exaggeration.
A hyperbole is a part of speech which expresses exaggerated claims that are not suppose to be taken literary. In hyperbole, exaggeration is always used in order to emphasis the point that is been made. Here is an example of hyperbole: My car moves faster than light. The speed of light in a vacuum is the fastest in the universe at the rate of 186282 miles per second. Thus it a big exaggeration to say that a car is faster than light.
3. SIMILE: Comparison using 'like or as'
Simile is a figure of speech that compares two things which are not alike. Simile is typically used in sentences in order to make descriptions more emphatic. In sentences, simile usually use connecting words such as like, as,so, than, etc to make comparison.  An example of simile is this: Jenny is as tall as a giraffe.
4. IRONY: Discrepancy between what is said  and what is meant.
Irony is a figure of speech that uses words in such a way that their intended meaning is totally different from the actual meaning of the words. Irony usually shows the difference between what is seen and the actual reality. An example of irony is this: The bricklayer's hand was as soft as a rock.
5. METAPHOR: Comparison without using 'like or as'.
Metaphor is a figure of speech that is used to compare two things that are not totally unalike. Metaphor used direct comparison without employing words such as 'like'and 'as'. Here is an example of metaphor: Jenny's mother is the light of her life. This sentence is comparing Jenny mother to light and it means that she is the source of happiness for her daughter.<span />

1. The Monk tells story after story, all with the same moral. What do you think this says about the Monk's character? Explain yo
morpeh [17]

This question refers to the Monk in "The Canterbury Tales". The fact that the Monk tells story after story, all with the same moral, means that he is a simple man, who perceives the world in absolute and simplistic ways.

  • The Monk is a part of "<u>The Canterbury Tales,</u>" which contains 24 stories by British author Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400).
  • Among the several characters, the Monk tells different stories with the same moral.
  • All of his stories aim to show characters<u> falling from Grace</u>, that is, going from a high position to a low one.
  • His purpose, through his tragic stories, is <u>to warn people against trusting wealth and prosperity</u>. Reality can change, and one can go from having everything to having nothing.
  • The fact that the monk teaches only the same moral reveals that he is a simple man. His view of the world is also simplistic, and he seems to believe in absolute truths.
